How To Fix Fertility: A New Personalized Playbook
Manage episode 506374126 series 3483610
What if tracking ovulation isn’t the key to getting pregnant - fixing the reasons for late ovulation is?
Dr. Awesome talks with Conceivable CEO Kirsten Karchmer about a practical, personalized approach to fertility that focuses on behavior change, heart rate variability, and addressing subclinical factors that derail conception. They unpack why period length, ovulation timing, hydration, sleep, and stress matter more than most apps suggest, and how AI can coach daily actions that improve outcomes for both women and men.
You’ll learn:
- How late ovulation and short or long bleeding windows signal deeper issues you can fix
- A simple way to start improving heart rate variability with breathwork, singing, and laughter
- Why “more workouts” can backfire when energy is low and HRV is poor
- The role of hydration and nutrition in cervical fluid and sperm quality
- What wearable data can (and can’t) do, and where personalized coaching adds value
- A step-by-step mindset for small, fast wins that build lasting habits
Who this helps:
- Couples trying to conceive naturally or preparing for IUI or IVF
- Anyone seeing irregular cycles, fatigue, or high stress and wondering what to change first
- Clinicians curious about using HRV and behavior change as levers for better outcomes
