So when a couple is struggling to conceive, what is the normal course of action in terms of treatment and planning?

Rachel WeinermanGUEST
Uh, so for a couple who is under the age of 35, if the woman is having regular periods and there's no known problem, right? They don't have an issue that they already know about, then we recommend that a couple try for a year before seeking help.

Rachel WeinermanGUEST
If the woman is above the age of 35, we actually say, "See us in six months," because we wanna be more aggressive with the workup given the, the age.

Rachel WeinermanGUEST
So if there is a known issue though, you can see a fertility doctor sooner.

Rachel WeinermanGUEST
So let's say a woman doesn't ovulate regularly and doesn't get regular periods.

Are there natural ways that you recommend, I know nothing's gonna heal it, but are there certain natural things that you recommend or lifestyle things to try to regulate it a little bit that could help without, before, like, going to the medications?
