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.

🔟 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.
