What You Practice Grows Stronger | Dr Shauna Shapiro | Closer Today 23
HELLO BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!
One of the things we’re told during infertility is to “just relax” - But How? Life is hard & infertility makes it even harder. So we start looking into how to relax during infertility because all the things that we use to relax are off the table!
We have a go at mindfulness & meditation for our infertility. And then we’re like this sh*t is hard and then we’re like F*ck Life.
Know I focused my energy on what wasn’t right during the first few years of my infertility. It wasn’t easy to change my mindset - I still work on it daily. But putting in the effort is worth it.

HELLO BEAUTIFUL! 🦩 Welcome back to another episode of Finding Fertility
Today we have a special guest Amy Beckley. We're talking about What You Need To Know About Taking Control Of Your Hormones At Home
Unexplained infertility is such a frustrating “diagnosis”, as it’s hard to figure out to move forward when you don’t know what’s not working! Our founder, Amy, sat down to talk with Monica of @findingfertility podcast to talk about ovulation and potential problems that can happen with it.
Ovulatory problems are the leading cause of infertility and will make it difficult to successfully conceive. The good news is that if you discover you have an ovulatory problem, the fix can be so simple!
Sometimes diet and lifestyle changes are enough to do this trick, while other times medications or supplements are needed. Regardless, having this critical information can help demystify what’s going on so you can move forward in your journey.
Proov is the first and only FDA cleared test to confirm successful ovulation at home. It works by tracking PdG – a progesterone metabolite – to help women understand if they are both ovulating and doing so in a healthy way to provide the best chance at conception!

Topics Discussed:
🦩Infertility as a newer disease
🦩Knowing what your body can and cannot do
🦩Personalizing treatments to improve fertility
🦩The impact on our children prior to conception
In this episode of Finding Fertility, Monica is joined by naturopathic doctor Reena Dalal to discuss why epigenetics is the next generation of medicine for anyone struggling with infertility.
Dr. Dalal shares her personal journey toward naturopathic medicine following an ulcerative colitis diagnosis at age 19. After a trip to Malaysia and a life-changing visit with a naturopathic doctor, Reena made a change in her diet and a huge change in her career path.
What many women do not consider is the impact that their choices and habits have on their future children, prior to conception. The key is identifying what your body needs and personalizing treatments to grow healthier embryos. Do the work to learn what your body can do, cannot do, and acknowledge that your fertility is in your own hands.
Through conscious, healthy choices before conception, you can increase your chances of conceiving the healthiest baby possible. The gut is the place to start! Lastly, Dr. Dalal has a special message for anyone who is currently struggling with infertility.
Join Monica and Dr. Dalal as they explore all things fertility, gut health, pregnancy, and so much more.
