Join Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center, and Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center as we tackle the ins and outs of dealing with damaged fallopian tubes and finding your way to pregnancy success. Listener questions about ectopic pregnancies and uterine malformations take center stage as we discuss when surgical intervention is necessary and how tests like HSGs and saline sonograms can help evaluate your tubes. If your tubes are damaged and need to be removed, rushing to remove them isn’t the best idea unless you’ve already created genetically normal embryos through IVF—timing is everything! We also explore why surgery can sometimes do more harm than good. Removing minor endometriosis could damage your ovaries, leading to fewer eggs or even requiring a second surgery if the tubes re-scar. Finally, we dive into the likelihood of successful IVF after ectopic pregnancies. There is plenty of hope, even if your tubes haven’t been cooperative in the past. Whether navigating tube troubles or looking for IVF insights, this episode is your go-to guide for staying on track. Have questions about infertility?

In this episode, we dive into the differences between Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) and Decreased Ovarian Reserve (DOR) — two terms that are often misunderstood and used interchangeably, but have distinct implications for reproductive health. Join Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center, and Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center as we break down the medical definitions and treatments for both conditions, while highlighting how they can impact fertility. Whether you're navigating these issues personally, or just want to understand the science behind them, we’ll provide clarity on these important topics. Tune in for expert insights on these two conditions.

Join us for this holiday edition of Fertility Docs Uncensored: Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center, and Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center discuss questions they get at holiday parties as they mingle and jingle with friends and family. They discuss provocative holiday party questions: Does position matter? Do we need to have sex every day to get pregnant? Not exactly, but there are details you may want to hear. What kind of lubricant should we use? You may laugh at this answer. Should my partner switch to boxers from briefs? Hopefully, this doesn’t mess up your choice of gifts for your male partner. The docs also get questions that are less uncensored about stress and reproduction and the impact of past birth control use on fertility. You will not want to miss this informative and entertaining episode as you head over the river and through the woods to grandma’s house for your holiday celebration. Have questions about infertility?
