Approaching Fertility Over 40 - Episode 139
If you are approaching 40 or over 40yo and you want to have a baby, I have a couple of very helpful tips for you as a naturopathic doctor and natural fertility expert. Having a baby in your 40s is not the same as having a baby in your 20s. And since time is not on your side, just trying things out and seeing what happens isn’t a good strategy. We can do better and in this episode I show you how you can set yourself up for success.

Memorable Quotes
“Pregnancy over 40 is very different than having a baby in your 20s. You are closer to menopause than you are to puberty, so things are working very differently in your 40s.”
“When you’re over 40 trying to have a baby, don’t do any guessing. You don’t have time to struggle. I recommend doing thorough testing before even thinking about conceiving.”
“If you now decided you want to have a baby at 40, the responsible thing is to do some really thorough testing and get your partner involved from day one. Both of you need to have comprehensive testing done to optimize your chances.”
