Can you do a video on how bladder and/or uterine prolapse affects getting pregnant, if at all? Dealing with that now. Been TTC for a year.

Thank you, Dr. Crawford, for this informative and helpful video! I really appreciate your insights on timing intercourse for conception. I have a question: You mentioned that saving up sperm by having less frequent intercourse is generally not beneficial for increasing the chances of conception. Could you elaborate on why this is the case and if there are any specific exceptions to this rule? Looking forward to your response!

Can you please discuss your thoughts on the helpfulness of seeing a reproductive immunologist (after already seeing an RE?) Or, can you make a video on cervical factor infertility? Its much less common and so hard to find info on.

@Memorieska30 Ай бұрын

Thanks so much for this video. Great info. Can I ask, what do you mean by positive when you say positive when talking about LH testing kits. A peak?

@alannahatfield6081 Ай бұрын

On an ovulation kit, the stick will have 2 lines. The first line is the test line. The second line is the control line. When the first line is darker than the control line, the test is positive and ovulation should happen the next day. She does have an Ovulation Perdition Kit video, so I recommend that for more information.

Dr Crawford, I’m having a problem I can’t Google an answer to. We have been ttc for 19 months , this is my 5th or 6th Clomid cycle (non consecutive over 10 months), I’m 32 and had used mirena twice for 8 years until it was removed 19 months ago . I live in Korea and I’m visiting the fertility clinic here recently but not getting answers about this… I noticed around 10 months ago my periods getting lighter, I was suspicious that I haven’t been ovulating without Clomid because I rarely get a strong LH surge with LH sticks. My periods have been lighter and browner . This month is was only clumps (no blood) and only brown. This is my third or fourth now with no blood . I tried speaking with my doctor but she just asked if it’s regular, which it is, 30/31 days . But it’s almost nothing now. I’m worried I’m losing fertility or there’s something wrong. We had 1 chemical in February but that’s our only partial success in 19 cycles.

My wife and I been trying since August and nothing yet. Seeing the BBT drop around CD 26 hurts:/

@nian60 Ай бұрын

Sorry to hear that. August last year? In this video she says that if you have been trying for 6 months and are over 35 years, or 1 year and are under 35 years, then it's a good idea to see a fertility expert. Good luck. 🍀

Hi ladies 😊 I really need your help. I was supposed to start my period on June 26/2024 but I got spotting on June 24/2024 through June 29/2024. It wasn’t my regular period because my period are always heavy. Super dark red with clots. My spotting was on & off. When I would wipe I would see light pink blood. I was having fatigue, my mouth was so dry & I was super thirsty. Also I was moody & having mild pain on my lower middle abdomen & pulling pain on my lower left side. I have dark blue veins in my areola, & if it was my period I wouldn’t have those veins. Rite now I have lower back pain. I was nauseous & vomiting when I would brush my teeth. Which that never happens. I suppose to get my period July 21/2024 but what do you ladies think? About my symptoms. Please help me ❤

Doc, would you be concerned that 3 cycles this first half of the year have only lasted 24 hours? We have been trying to conceive since last fall.

Video suggestion: insemination. This does not only affects LGBTQIA+, but also straight people for various reasons (some straight men are unable to ejaculate inside a woman, for example). The insemination syringes available on the market as of now (2024) are quite short. Do too short syringes matter? I'm guessing not, but it would be a good topic.
