The Egg Whisperer Show

Imagine an insemination kit with a syringe specifically designed for the female body that you can use with your partner or sperm donor in the comfort of your own home. I'm delighted to have Maureen Brown, co-founder of Mosie Baby joining me on the this week to talk about the home insemination kit that she and her husband designed after being faced with infertility.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ As you know, I really love innovative products and ideas that help people reach their goals. Anything that helps demystify fertility and helps women get pregnant is a win in my book. What I love about the Mosie Baby story is that Maureen and her husband decided to create a product that they could not find and wished existed during their fertility journey. We talk about how the kit was invented, her own experience using it, how it works, and about some of her favorite success stories.

I've yet to meet someone that dreamed of the day they could become my patient. You may dream of your wedding day. Or maybe you may fantasize about your next vacation destination, or the day you buy a house or seeing your future child graduate from high school. But I'm guessing that when you think of those milestones in life, my bet is that nowhere in that world are you thinking about me — a fertility doctor? It's just not happening. And here's the thing: while I love my patients and have been known to tell a good joke or two, it's my honest hope that I never have to meet you. That's because deep down, I want to PREVENT infertility. My job as a doctor is to do my best to ensure I educate you enough that many of you will never need to visit me. Of course, many of you may become my patients, and I truly do love the work I get to do. Today on the podcast, I'm making the bold move to outline how you can go about not becoming my patient. If you follow Patagonia clothing company, it's sort of like how they have ads that say, "Don't Buy This Shirt." They are a company that's about sustainability. They don't want you to buy another shirt. Well, I guess I'm the Patagonia of fertility medicine. I don't want you to need my services. Read the full show notes on Dr. Aimee's website.

I know there are a lot of fertility myths out there, and some can be downright perplexing if you're trying to do everything you can to have a successful pregnancy. And, when you've been a fertility doctor for a while, let me tell you, you will hear it all.⁠ ⁠ So in this episode, I'm tackling TWENTY of the most common fertility myths in a little thing I like to call "Fertility: Fact or Fiction."⁠ ⁠ I love talking about these types of things because once you know the truth, you also have a better idea of what may be happening in your own body. I think most people now realize that sperm does in fact matter when you're TTC.⁠ ⁠ But, do you need both of your fallopian tubes?⁠ ⁠ Is marijuana safe when you're TTC?⁠ ⁠ Can someone born without a uterus have a uterine transplant?⁠ ⁠ Is an ovarian cyst something to be concerned about?⁠ ⁠ Of course, these questions matter, and I want everyone to feel comfortable asking their doctor about them (and for answers to the above: no, no, yes, no).⁠ Do you have questions about IVF, and what to expect?

Most fertility treatment hinges on the strategic use of drugs to help the body be as fertile as possible. My goal is to give each of my patients a personalized fertility plan with custom calendars of what to do, which drug to take, and when. Today on the podcast, I'm walking through fertility calendars (keeping things confidential, of course) and talking about the drugs I commonly use to give my patients the best chance at fertility success.

In this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I am joined by Sherri McDonald Sawyerr - IVF mom, content creator, and author of the children's book Love Grew Me - for a real, unfiltered conversation about donor egg conception. Sherri shares her multi-year fertility journey, from early IVF attempts with her own eggs to ultimately finding success with donor eggs after discovering she had adenomyosis, and how she navigated the process as a Black woman in her forties. We go beyond the medical decision and explore the emotional terrain that so many women face but rarely talk about openly - the grief, the relief, the joy, and the identity questions that come with donor conception. Sherri also shares why she started telling her daughter her conception story from day one, what led her to write a children's book about it, and how she's using her platform to normalize donor egg IVF in communities where the conversation is often taboo.

Whether you're trying to conceive naturally or preparing for IVF, understanding how endometriosis affects your fertility is key. I'll walk you through what this condition means for your eggs and embryos and offer actionable advice for improving your chances of success.

On the latest episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I'm joined by the incredibly compassionate Naomi Woolfson, founder of Embrace Fertility and a trauma-trained hypnotherapist who specializes in helping women feel emotionally supported through fertility treatment. Naomi shares her own four-year journey through IUI, IVF, miscarriage, and anxiety and how it led her to create The Embrace Fertility Method, a mind-body approach that empowers women to feel calm, confident, and connected as they prepare for pregnancy. We talk about how powerful the mind-body connection can be during IVF, how to gently shift from fear to hope, and how practices like visualization, EFT tapping, and guided hypnosis can help bring emotional healing and clarity. Naomi even leads us through a beautiful meditation designed to bring comfort and encouragement right now, wherever you are on your journey. If you're feeling overwhelmed or unsure, this episode is a reminder that you're not alone—and that there are powerful, loving tools to help you move forward with greater peace and strength.

I'm joined by Dr. Diane Tober, medical anthropologist, researcher, and author of Eggsonomics, a book that exposes the hidden realities of the global egg donation industry. Her NSF-funded research includes nearly 900 survey participants and close to 300 interviews with donors across the U.S., Spain, and beyond. We talk about the real risks donors face, the ethical complexities of how donors are selected and compensated, and what a more transparent fertility industry could look like for donors, intended parents, and doctors alike. Read the full show notes on my website. In this episode, we cover: Why egg donors often don't feel like "real patients" and how clinics can do betterThe truth about OHSS complication rates and why the statistic that "less than 1%" of those going through egg retrieval may be misleadingHow donor compensation in the U.S. varies by education, ancestry, and school prestigeKey differences between egg donation in the U.S. vs. SpainWhat donors need to know about donating eggs, and how to self-advocateHow private equity is changing patient care at fertility clinicsWhy 90% of donors in Dr. Tober's study actually want a national donor registry Resources: Eggonomics by Dr. Diane Tober available on AmazonRomancing the Sperm by Dr. Diane Tober (on Amazon)Dr. Aimee's Freeze & Share Program - freezeandshare.comASRM: asrm.orgSART: sart.org IVF Class: Do you have questions about IVF?

The relationship between sleep and fertility isn't something that's talked about very much. I'm excited to have sleep expert, Dr. Sara Nowakowski, joining me today. We all know sleep is important, but did you know that sleep helps you recover from illness and rebound from life challenges? It also helps with mood regulation and decreases depression and anxiety, and it has been shown to help memory consolidation. Plus, there is scientific evidence to show that sleep impacts hormones, has varying effects during the different phases of a woman's reproductive life (when trying to conceive, during pregnancy, and during perimenopause and menopause). Sara is sharing some of the findings about this, along with some tips on improving sleeping habits. Sara Nowakowski, PhD, is an Associate Professor at Baylor College of Medicine and treats patients with insomnia and other sleep disorders at the Baylor Sleep Medicine Clinic. She is also a Research Health Scientist at the Houston VA, where she conducts research on sleep and women's health. Thank you for joining me, Sara!

This episode is a special one. Sara Jensen, co-founder and Co-CEO of Hugh & Grace invited me to join her for a live conversation in honor of National Infertility Awareness Week and the interview was so good, I knew I had to share it with all of you here on the Egg Whisperer Show. Sara has walked the deeply personal road of unexplained infertility for 14 years, ultimately building her family through the incredible gift of surrogacy. And, she and her husband Ben and channeled that journey (and what they learned) into a company dedicated to hormone-supportive, toxin-free wellness products. Together, Sara and I unpack some of the fertility trends we both are seeing in 2026. From understanding your fertility before you're trying to conceive, to the emotional marathon of IVF, to the role environmental toxins play in hormone health, and the topic of sperm maxing and egg maxing - we tackle many of the trending topics. And, we share what it really takes to prepare your body, protect your partnership, and make empowered choices on the path to parenthood. In this episode, we cover these fertility trends from 2026: Resources: Hugh & Grace (hormone-supportive, toxin-free wellness products) The Egg Whisperer Show (Dr. Aimee's podcast) on Spotify Yo Sperm Test (at-home semen analysis) Fellow sperm testing kit Legacy male fertility testing Proof Complete fertility hormone test The Hermosa Study (research on chemical exposure and teens): https://cerch.berkeley.edu/research-programs/hermosa-study Oura Ring (fertility & cycle tracking): ouraring.com

Your Genetics are a key part of my TUSHY Method (Y = Your genetics) and I'm so honored to have Dena Goldberg (also known far and wide as Dena DNA) joining me today! Some of the questions I know you have on your mind about genetics are: Nothing came back on my 23 & Me test. I'm good to go, right? Answer: Not so fast. 23&Me relies on "SNP testing," and only looks at "very specific bookmarks on very random genes." You'll want a more thorough test for preconception screening. I don't have any history of disease in my family. Do I need to do genetic testing? Answer: It's a good idea. There are syndromes such as Lynch Syndrome that are asymptomatic in 90% of people who are carriers. You'll want to know if you have those genetic markers before passing them on to your embryo and child. Can you make sure my embryo doesn't have autism? Answer: Autism is actually a description of a constellation of symptoms. So it's not an underlying condition in and of itself. There are hundreds to thousands of genetic causes to autism. We can catch some of these cases, but not all. Autism is multifactorial, meaning that many of these cases are probably caused by a combination of genetics and environment or in other words, nature and nurture together.

We dive into how the gut microbiome impacts hormones, egg and sperm quality, inflammation, and even implantation.

In this episode of the Egg Whisper Show, I'm joined by Danielle Melfi, CEO of RESOLVE: The National Infertility Association, the leading nonprofit dedicated to supporting, educating, and advocating for the one in six people impacted by infertility. Danielle shares her own personal journey to freeze her egg that began when the Alabama Supreme Court decision temporarily paused IVF in that state, and how that experience led her to the helm of one of the most important organizations in the fertility space. Together, we're talking about what it means to navigate infertility: not just the medical and financial challenges, but the emotional weight that often comes with the journey. Danielle shares about the power of community, the importance of evidence-based information in a world full of fertility misinformation, and how RESOLVE is fighting every day to make family building accessible to everyone, regardless of their zip code or insurance plan.
