Women's Bodies are Designed to Conceive
Many women dream of becoming mothers and feel certain about that decision. This is not the case for every woman and I think that is perfectly fine. While motherhood is truly a fulfilling role, I also know a number ofwomen without children whose lives are very full and satisfying. They are not“childless” as there is nothing “missing.” They just made a lifestyle choicethat should absolutely be respected.
For those women who chose to pursue the path to motherhood, I believe that option should be available to them. If a woman is of a reasonablereproductive age and there are no serious structural issues, then pregnancy is a viable goal.

Many women are told that they are “too old” or that their hormonalconditions will prevent a healthy pregnancy. This can be frustrating, as wellas heartbreaking, to hear. Yes, there isan age at which it is not biologically viable (or wise) for a woman toconceive. And yes, sometimes there areirreversible conditions that will prevent pregnancy. However, in the absence ofthese obstacles, there are often a number of practical and effective measures awoman can take to facilitate pregnancy, even when the conventional odds areagainst her.
My Fertility Enhancement Program is designed to address the individual fertility concerns ofeach patient in order to increase the likelihood of an easier conception, a successfulpregnancy and a healthy baby. A comprehensive intake, detailed laboratorytesting and a customized treatment protocol are all part of this approach tohelping women conceive and carry a baby to term.

There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to any health condition andthis especially applies to women’s fertility. I love the challenge of helping awoman who has been told that pregnancy will not happen for her naturally. And Ibelieve that couples are often pushed prematurely into expensive and riskyassisted reproductive procedures, but that is a topic for another article.
Considering that our environment has created a number of toxiceffects on our reproductive systems (also a topic for an upcoming article), inaddition to the fact that women have waited longer to start their families,it makes good sense to do whatever we can to facilitate conception. It’s whatour bodies were designed to do.
