Everything You Need to Know Before Picking an Egg Donor

Everything You Need to Know Before Picking an Egg Donor
Whether you’re an egg donor now, if you’re considering it, or you know someone that is — I’m glad you’re here. Young women are donating eggs at the time they are most fertile, often times not realizing the implications of what that means. I’ve had patients come to me in their 40s without enough healthy eggs of their own to conceive. When they share with me that they themselves donated their young and healthy eggs in their 20s or 30s, but that none are available for them, I feel frustrated and sad for them. Frustrated enough that I’m doing something about it. Freeze & Share is a program that helps young egg donors save some eggs for themselves should they need them, while helping another family conceive when they can’t on their own. Suffice to say, I don’t want anyone to look back at their egg donation and wish they’d known more. Here is your chance — I want to give you all the information I have so that you’re equipped with the knowledge to make the best decision for your personal situation. Dr. Aimee Eyvazzadeh is one of America’s most well known fertility doctors. Her success rate at baby-making is what gives future parents hope when all hope is lost. She pioneered the TUSHY Method and BALLS Method to decrease your time to pregnancy. Learn more about the TUSHY Method and find a wealth of fertility resources at www.draimee.org where you can .

The 10 Things You Need to Know to Survive Depot Lupron
I use Depot Lupron in my practice quite a bit for patients who have implantation issues, mostly related to endometriosis. We can also use it for women who have fibroid uterus, adenomyosis, as well. Tune in, and I hope you get a chuckle just like I do when I share this stuff with you. Today on the Egg Whisperer Show Podcast, I'm sharing about the 10 things that you need to know to survive Depot Lupron. Think of this as your Depot Lupron survival guide. Here is a sampling of the top 5: 1. The first thing to realize is that you have to be prepared for dryness. I’m talking like communion wafer level of dryness. We’re talking about dryness in your vagina. Thank you, Depot Lupron. 2. Practice self care. 3. Mood change can occur with Depot Lupron, so you want to be prepared and be a proactive participant in what’s happening. 4. Eat like an adult, not like a garbage disposal teenager. 5. Keep your eye on the prize. As one of my patients says, “My race is not done yet, but I know love conquers all eventually. I’m here for it and I’m going to fight the good fight until I’m done. You can, too. Let’s go, girl.” Do you have questions about IVF?

How to Avoid the IVF Catastrophe of OHSS with guest Dr. Nichole Barker
As part of the IVF cycle, patients are given hormones which stimulates the ovaries to allow all the possible follicles and eggs to grow. The good news is that this often allows us to capture as many healthy eggs as possible in one cycle, giving a patient a better chance at a healthy embryo. One possible side effect is Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome. Dr. Nichole Barker of Seattle Reproductive Medicine joins me on the podcast today to talk all about OHSS. What do you need to know before IVF? What are the symptoms of OHSS? What’s the protocol for a patient (and her doctor) should she have symptoms?⠀ Would you like to learn more about IVF?
