Behind The Scenes of IVF Prep: PMOS, Male Factor Infertility & Their First-Round IVF Success (Emily's Story)
Jun 28, 2026
In this episode, I’m sitting down with my client Emily to share the real story behind her path to pregnancy and it’s not as straightforward as it may seem.
What began as a proactive plan quickly turned into navigating a PCOS diagnosis, male factor infertility, and a fertility experience that left her feeling discouraged and dismissed. But instead of accepting that as her path, Emily chose to do things differently.
We take you behind the scenes of how we prepared both her and her husband for IVF, uncovering deeper imbalances through functional testing and focusing on the pieces that are so often overlooked with conventional care.
Emily also opens up about the moments that challenged her the most, what helped her stay grounded through the uncertainty, and the unexpected signs that kept her holding on.
Today’s episode is a story about self advocacy, trust, and what can shift when you stop rushing the process and start supporting your body in a deeper way.
