Perimenopause, GLP-1s and Egg Freezing Explained

If you're thinking about egg freezing, IVF, fertility decline, perimenopause, or reproductive health, this is the conversation you need to hear before meeting with your doctor. In this episode of The Tamsen Show, Tamsen Fadal sits down with Dr. Jamie Grifo, Director of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at NYU Langone. Dr. Grifo helped modernize IVF as we know it, launched NYU's egg freezing program in 1999, and has spent 40 years giving women the science they were never taught. Today, he's sharing everything you need to know about your fertility timeline, your hormone shifts, and how to make decisions that are right for you. You'll learn: - Why your chance of getting pregnant at 40 is 2-3% a month, not 20% - The age fertility actually starts to decline (it's earlier than you think) - The 3 fertility tests every woman should know: FSH, estradiol, and AMH - What a low AMH really means (and what it doesn't) - Egg freezing vs. embryo freezing: Which is right for you? - Why 40% of infertility is male factor, yet women still blame themselves - What endometriosis and PCOS mean for your fertility - Why postpartum and perimenopause symptoms are so often confused - How GLP-1 medications may improve fertility and why they're leading to "Ozempic babies" - The biggest emotional difference between freezing your eggs early and going through IVF later If you or someone you love has been carrying questions about fertility, this is the conversation that finally answers them.
