The latest scientific research is changing the way we think about fertility. Egg quality is emerging as the single most important cause of age-related infertility, recurrent miscarriage, and failed IVF cycles. Poor egg quality is also a common obstacle for women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and unexplained infertility. Whether you are trying to conceive naturally or through IVF, the quality of your eggs will have a powerful impact on how long it takes you to get pregnant and whether you face an increased risk of miscarriage. Based on a comprehensive investigation of a vast array of scientific research, this book reveals a groundbreaking new approach for improving egg quality and fertility. With a concrete strategy that includes minimizing exposure to toxins such as BPA and phthalates, choosing the right vitamins and supplements to safeguard developing eggs, and harnessing nutritional advice shown to boost IVF success rates, this book offers practical solutions that will help you get pregnant faster and deliver a healthy baby.

Introduction

Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me .

Carol Burnett

Whether you are just starting to think about having a baby, find yourself on the long road of fertility treatments and failed IVF cycles, or have suffered multiple miscarriages, it is critically important to provide your eggs with the specific nutrients needed to support embryo development and to avoid the toxins that cause the most harm. This book will explain the simple things you can do to have the best possible chance of getting pregnant and bringing home a healthy baby. And it starts with the egg.

The conventional thinking is that women are born with all the eggs they will ever have and that the quality of those eggs declines drastically with age. But this is not the whole story. Most of our lives, our eggs are in a state of suspended animation as immature cells, but in the three to four months before ovulation, an egg must undergo a major transformation. It grows dramatically in size and starts producing much more energy. The egg must then execute a precise process of separating and ejecting copies of chromosomes. If this process goes wrong, and it often does, the egg will have chromosomal abnormalities. These chromosomal abnormalities are the single most important cause of early miscarriages and failed IVF cycles as well as the reason it takes older women so much longer to conceive.

Many women are told there is little they can do to improve egg quality, but the latest research defies that old assumption. The growth phase before ovulation is a critical time during which many things can happen that affect the quality of the egg, both positively and negatively. These include harmful effects from exposure to toxins such as BPA and phthalates as well as protective effects from added antioxidants and other nutrients. As a result, there is a brief window of opportunity in which you can make a difference to your egg quality.

This book will be your guide to specific strategies that are supported by strong scientific research. Importantly, the advice in this book is not based on isolated animal studies that provide enticing hints as to the causes and solutions for poor egg quality. Individual studies, and particularly animal or test-tube studies, provide only limited evidence and must be taken with a grain of salt. Instead, this book is based on a comprehensive analysis of a large body of medical research involving studies that have been confirmed by multiple groups and that involve real patients.

If you are currently being treated by a fertility specialist, you may have already received advice about supplements that can improve egg quality. The advice of some doctors will be more up-to-date and supported by scientific research than that of others. My goal in writing this book is to provide a tool for thoroughly understanding what helps and why, so you can make your own informed decisions.

But first, the story of how I became obsessed with the science of egg quality. My mission started with the same fears and anxieties faced by many women struggling with infertility. I was about to begin an IVF cycle and could not help worrying, Is this going to work? Will we get enough eggs? Will they produce any embryos that are good enough to transfer and lead to a pregnancy?
