Acronym Overload: WTF is IUI, IVF, AMH, & More

🎙️ Episode 11: Acronym Overload: WTF is IUI, IVF, AMH, & More

Let’s be real - fertility feels like a whole new language. Whether you're deep in the TTC world or just trying to figure out WTF your doctor meant when they said, “Your AMH looks good, but we still recommend an FET,” we’ve got you.

In this episode, Laura and Brandis break down the fertility alphabet soup - decoding the most common (and confusing) acronyms and medical lingo you’ll run into on your journey.

📚 What We Cover:

TTC, BFP, CD, DPO… What all the letters mean (and why they matter)
The difference between IUI and IVF
Hormone crash course: AMH, LH, E2, P4, and why they fluctuate
What’s a “Beta” and why everyone’s obsessed with it
HSG vs. SIS vs. HSC (yes, those are all real things and no, you’re not crazy)
The truth about sperm (yep, it affects miscarriage risk and pregnancy symptoms too!)
Bonus: BD = baby dance. We didn’t make it up. The internet did.

Whether you're tracking OPKs or wondering if your RE suggested PGT-A or ICSI, this episode is your fertility dictionary. Because informed = empowered, and no one should need Google Translate for their own uterus.
