Tried Functional Medicine for Low AMH or Failed IVF? What Might Still Be Missing

Low AMH? Diminished ovarian reserve or POI? Failed IVF or recurrent loss? Book a free Functional Fertility Second Opinion before your next fertility decision → fabfertile.com

You've done the stool test. You've worked on your gut, changed your diet and taken the supplements. You've addressed your thyroid, hormones and inflammation.

So when someone asks whether anyone has looked deeper into your health, your answer is:

I've already done functional medicine.

But did your practitioner specialize in low AMH, diminished ovarian reserve, POI, recurrent pregnancy loss or failed IVF?

And did they connect what they found to your fertility history, IVF response, and the health of both partners?

Doing functional medicine and having a complex fertility case investigated aren't necessarily the same thing.

In this episode:

Why general functional medicine may miss patterns that matter in low AMH, DOR, POI, recurrent loss and failed IVF

Why more testing and more supplements aren't necessarily the answer

What may still be worth investigating, including inflammation, autoimmune and thyroid patterns, the nervous system, gut health and vaginal microbiome

Why his side matters beyond a normal semen analysis, including sperm DNA fragmentation

How your IVF history, embryo development and recurrent losses become part of the investigation

What to ask about the work you've already done before another IVF cycle

You're not starting over. You're figuring out what hasn't been connected yet.

We look across fertility history, previous treatment, bloodwork, functional testing, and the health of both partners to identify patterns that may not have been explored. We work alongside your fertility clinic, not instead of it.
