How To Know If Low Energy Or Fatigue Is Impacting Your Fertility

How To Know If Low Energy Or Fatigue Is Impacting Your Fertility

Dr. Evan Hirsch joins us today as we're digging into why optimizing energy levels and addressing fatigue is essential when you are on the TTC journey.

Many of us struggle with low energy or fatigue.

And while dips in energy can be normal, feeling constantly tired or low energy may be a sign to dig deeper.

As you may know, we don't focus singularly on the infertility diagnosis…. we look at the whole body.

So why does fatigue or low energy matter when we are trying to conceive?

It could be missed healing opportunities that can help get to the root cause of why you are struggling to get pregnant naturally.

Today I'm excited to welcome Evan H. Hirsch, MD is a World-Renowned Fatigue Expert and is the Founder & CEO of the International Center for Fatigue.

In this episode you'll learn:

1) Why it is important to address energy levels if you are trying to conceive

2) What are the symptoms of fatigue

3) How testosterone levels impact energy and sex drive

4) What are normal energy levels during the menstrual cycle

5) Connection between autoimmune disease and fatigue

6) Chronic infections and the link to fatigue, plus how to address fatigue so that you can get pregnant naturally.
