Скачать или смотреть Why Most Women Are Thinking About Fertility Wrong - And Paying For It Later | Dr Natalie Crawford

I used to think fertility was pure luck — until conversations like this changed everything. I’ve watched women do everything right and still struggle… while others who ignored all the “rules” conceived effortlessly. It’s confusing, emotional, and at times, deeply unfair. But today’s guest, Dr. Natalie Crawford, explains exactly why this happens — and what women actually can control.

In this episode, we break down the science of fertility in a way every woman deserves to understand — whether you're 25, 35, or 45.

We dive deep into:
How IVF medications actually work inside the ovaries
Why embryo survival rates are now 90–95% due to modern technology
The surprising connection between longevity, mitochondria & ovarian aging
Why stress, overtraining, and cortisol dysregulation silently shut down fertility.

The environmental toxins most women overlook that directly harm reproductive health.
Most importantly, Dr. Crawford reveals the 5 fertility non-negotiables — the foundational biological factors every woman should understand long before she ever tries to conceive.
This is one of the most empowering episodes we’ve created — because fertility shouldn’t be a mystery, and women deserve better answers.
