Welcome to this special episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, where I’m thrilled to share a conversation hosted by my friend and colleague, Dr. Karli Goldstein. In this episode, Dr. Goldstein and I are joined by Monica Wunderman, a passionate patient advocate and content creator who has openly shared her journey with endometriosis, diminished ovarian reserve (DOR), and gestational surrogacy. Together, we dive into Monica’s powerful story—from her early symptoms and challenges with diagnosis, to her experiences with IVF, surgery, and ultimately, finding a path to healing and hope. Throughout our discussion, we explore the complex intersections of egg quality, DOR, and IVF, especially when endometriosis is part of the picture. We talk candidly about the realities of delayed diagnosis, the importance of patient advocacy, and the evolving landscape of fertility care. Monica’s journey highlights the need for individualized treatment, the value of community, and the resilience required to navigate infertility and chronic illness. In this episode, we cover:
  • Monica’s personal story: from early symptoms to diagnosis and advocacy
  • The link between endometriosis, diminished ovarian reserve, and egg quality
  • Surgical approaches and recovery, including Monica’s experience with excision and kidney removal
  • Strategies for improving egg quality and fertility outcomes (supplements, PRP, red light therapy, and more)
  • The role of patient advocacy and finding the right care team
  • Navigating IVF, surrogacy, and the emotional aspects of infertility
  • Tips for asking the right questions and advocating for yourself in the medical system
