Knocked Up Podcast - Could Your Gut Hold the Key to Fertility?

Written By Women's Health Melbourne

We are joined by gastroenterologist Dr. Lindy Jackson to uncover the surprising connection between gut health and fertility.

 

What if the secret to boosting your fertility isn't just about tracking ovulation or taking prenatal vitamins, but actually lies in your digestive system? We are joined by gastroenterologist Dr. Lindy Jackson to uncover the surprising connection between gut health and fertility.

Discover how the trillions of bacteria living in your bowel can influence your hormone levels, why stress might be sabotaging both your digestion and your chances of conception and how inflammatory bowel conditions can directly impact egg and sperm quality, and what those trendy microbiome tests actually mean for your reproductive health.

Hosted by Dr Raelia Lew and Jordi Morrison

Dr Raelia Lew is a RANZCOG Board Certified CREI Fertility specialist, Gynaecologist and the Director of Women’s Health Melbourne.
