Follicle and Egg Stimulation Strategies for Women with Diminished Ovarian Reserve with Dr. Geoffrey Sher

When it comes to DOR, aka Diminished Ovarian Reserve, I will forever be reminding you, your friend, your friend's mom and anyone else who will listen: "diminished" does not mean "zero"!

That's why I'm so happy to have Dr. Geoffrey Sher back on the show to talk all about egg stimulation specifically for women with a diminished ovarian reserve.

I know when patients hear "diminished" when it comes to their eggs, they think it's all over. They imagine they've gone from having a whole bunch of gorgeous, high-quality eggs right to having none at all.

The truth is, every ovulating human on earth is going to go through DOR. And when it happens, it happens slowly, over time. There's no emergency "eggs-it" that all your eggs run through all of a sudden, taking all your fertility journey goals with them.

Just because you may have gotten a DOR diagnosis does not mean your fertility journey ends here. In fact, there are still many ways that you can work with your doctor to give your remaining eggs the best chance at success. Like I always say: all it takes is one good egg!

Dr. Sher had so many excellent insights to share in this episode. Here are just a few things we talked about in this amazing conversation:

What you need to know about egg quality and how it declines over time

What we can do to give eggs the best chance during IVF

Why you might choose birth control (you read that right!) in this situation

If you or someone you care about is wondering what to do after a DOR diagnosis, tune in to this episode of the podcast at the link in my profile. I promise, there's still so much hope for you and your dreams

Thank you once again for a great conversation, Dr. Sher!
