10 Fertility Red Flags Most Women Ignore (Until It’s Too Late!)

10 Fertility Red Flags Most Women Ignore (Until It’s Too Late!)

If you're trying to conceive or just want to get your hormones in balance—this episode could change everything.

After supporting over 1,000 women on their natural conception journey, I’ve uncovered the subtle yet powerful clues the body gives us long before an infertility diagnosis ever happens. These 10 fertility red flags often get brushed off as "normal" or “just stress”—but they’re actually your body’s way of waving a big red flag saying: something’s off.

🌿 These early signs of hormonal imbalance can quietly impact egg quality, ovulation, progesterone levels, and implantation. Catching and addressing them now may help you avoid invasive, expensive fertility treatments later.

Hi! I’m Dr Aumatma, I’m a Licensed Naturopathic Doctor & Endocrinologist recognized with awards such as Best Naturopathic Medicine Doctor and Top Women in Medicine Doctor. Has been featured on ABC, FOX, CBS, and more. Has trained hundreds of practitioners globally and helped over 897+ couples to finally have the baby they dream of - read some of their success stories here. Co-founder of Madre Fertility, offering a free Smart Fertility Analysis to guide personalized fertility journeys. Author of Fertility Secrets: What Your Doctor Didn’t Tell You About Baby-Making

🔟 TOP 10 FERTILITY RED FLAGS WE COVER:
  1. Spotting before or after your period – what it really says about progesterone, your luteal phase, or thyroid health
  2. Short cycles under 26 days – and why your body might be rushing ovulation
  3. Heavy first day of your period – what it could reveal about estrogen dominance or inflammation
  4. Cold hands and feet – could this be a thyroid or blood flow issue?
  5. Mid-cycle pain – how to know if it's ovulation, cysts, or inflammation
  6. Chin or facial hair growth – a hidden PCOS or adrenal stress clue
  7. Night sweats – why these "mini hot flashes" could be a hormonal SOS
  8. Gut health issues – bloating, gas, constipation, and why they matter for fertility
  9. Afternoon energy crashes – adrenal fatigue or blood sugar crash?
  10. Sleep disruptions (especially waking at 3AM) – a sign of cortisol imbalance, liver congestion, or poor detoxification

📋 Testing Recommendations (Cycle Day 3 & Beyond):

We break down exactly what labs to request:

  • FSH, LH, Estradiol, Prolactin, AMH, Testosterone
  • Full Thyroid Panel (TSH, Free T3, Free/Total T4, Antibodies)
  • Plus, why “normal” lab results don’t always mean “optimal” for fertility.

Daily Tips from Jennifer Quist! "Trust the timing and your body. Check your hormones regularly and work with your team to understand them inside and out; what you put into your body (every single thing) matters! But understand the correlation between food and how it impacts your egg quality, hormones, etc. - otherwise, it might be much harder to make such drastic changes". - Jennifer Quist   Follow Jennifer Quist on: Instagram: @jenquisty   Follow me on: Instagram: @holisticfertilitydoctor TikTok:  @holisticfertilitydoctor Youtube:  @Holistic Fertility Expert Facebook: Join our private Fertile AF tribe!
