How to Talk to Your Doctor About Fertility if You Are Over 40

Talking about your fertility when you're old is not easy, but I want women to stop apologizing for desiring a family. Times have changed. It's okay to want a baby over 40. It's not crazy, nor selfish. Watch my show on this topic here.

My approach is for all of my patients to be given their best chance at a healthy pregnancy in the shortest period of time.

How do we do this?

It starts by not believing everything you read. There's an international headline I saw recently on BBC news that fertility doctors are exploiting older women and "dealing false hope".

Do I believe that fertility doctors deliver false hope? No way! I do not.

Do I believe that it's imperative to get a diagnosis before treatment, regardless of who you are and your age? Yes! Diagnosis before treatment. Please!

I want my patients over 40 to understand their follicle count. Then I want them to decide if moving forward with treatment using their own eggs is the best path forward. There are so many ways to have a baby if your own body is not making it happen there are other creative paths to explore. Egg and embryo donation and adoption are a few examples.
