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

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.
