Here’s a paper we just published in Human Reproduction—showing that it is nonsense to believe the luteal phase is fixed at 14 days. Henry, Sarah https://doi.org/10.1093/humrep/deae215
Because menstrual cramps are said to only occur in ovulatory cycles, we analyzed cramps in both groups—women with anovulation had more intense cramps that lasted longer! https://doi:10.2147/JPR.S457484.
We showed significantly decreased night sweats and improved sleep, no change in periods and a significant decrease in perimenopausal interference with daily life. Here’s the open access link https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-023-35826-w

| 43: Connecting to your Authentic Self and Integrated Intelligence with Dr. Marcus Anthony | 18 Jul 2023 | 00:52:53 | |
In this episode of the Conscious Fertility Podcast, Dr. Marcus Anthony speaks about his research on integrated intelligence, which is the idea that human consciousness is embedded within layers of intelligence that transcend the local mind. He explains that this form of intelligence involves the synchronization of the mind through mirror neurons, connecting us to each other, the environment, and spiritual realms. Dr. Anthony describes how this connection can be accessed through non-ordinary states of consciousness, such as dreams and meditative states, and can potentially change the way we think about intelligence. Dr. Anthony explains the concept of psychoneuroimmunology, which is the idea that one's thoughts and feelings can impact their nervous, hormonal and immune systems. He shares examples of how this can manifest in fertility and pregnancy, and how integrated intelligence can be used to positively impact these areas. The discussion explores the idea of knowledge, intuition, and synchronicity as part of an integrated intelligence, and the potential power and limitations of these concepts in understanding oneself and the world. Dr. Anthony shares a personal experience of how synchronicity had helped him to understand a difficult relationship with his mother, and suggests that it can be a powerful tool, though it should not be relied upon as the primary source of understanding. The conversation delves into the idea of integrated intelligence as a form of enhanced intelligence that connects us to realms of understanding that are difficult to access through traditional means. It explores the practical applications of this concept in areas like fertility and pregnancy, as well as its potential to change the way we think about intelligence and our relationship with the world around us.
Key Topics
● Integrated Intelligence ● Power and Presence Project ● Psycho Neuro Immunology ● Knowledge, Intuition, and Synchronicity ● Practical Applications

Gila Golub joins us again for her second episode and this time introduces the concept of Holy Relationships, which is rooted in the willingness to see the wholeness, completeness, and innocence of both self and others. She explains that most people are trapped in special relationships, which are rooted in fear-based parenting and a belief system that is based on performance and fear.

The podcast highlights the importance of working on one's self-relationship and understanding that relationships are not the be-all and end-all of our happiness. They also point out how it is too much of a responsibility to put on any human being to make us happy. Overall, this podcast provides insightful perspectives on the nature of relationships and the importance of personal growth and self-healing in order to find peace and fulfillment in our lives. Gila emphasizes the importance of understanding our own wounds and projections in order to cultivate healthier and more fulfilling relationships.

| 41: Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) weight loss and optimizing fertility with Sandro Graca | 27 Jun 2023 | 00:47:38 | |
In this episode, Dr. Lorne Brown welcomes Sandro Graca, a lecturer and researcher in reproductive health. They discuss polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), which is a common condition affecting women's reproductive health. Sandro explains that PCOS is a metabolic disorder, which can cause long or absent menstrual cycles and the presence of multifollicular or cysts in one or multiple ovaries. It is characterized by hyperandrogenism or excess androgens in the body.
One of the main misconceptions about PCOS is the presence of cysts on the ovaries.

The diagnosis of PCOS usually requires a physical exam and blood tests that can help provide a better understanding of the condition.
The conversation also touches on the emotional and psychological aspects of PCOS. Treatment for this disease usually involves lifestyle changes such as exercise, diet, and stress management. Medications, supplements and acupuncture are sometimes used to manage symptoms and reduce the risk of developing other health conditions. Sandro emphasizes that there is no one-size-fits-all treatment for PCOS, and it is essential to work with a healthcare provider who can customize a treatment plan based on individual needs.
This episode provides a comprehensive overview of PCOS, including its causes, symptoms, and treatment options. Dr. Brown and Sandro Graca offer valuable insights into this common condition, which affects millions of women worldwide. Their conversation is informative and accessible, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to learn more about PCOS.
Key Topics
● What is PCOS and how is it diagnosed? ● Symptoms of PCOS and their impact on emotional and mental health. ● Health risks associated with PCOS and the importance of early diagnosis and treatment. ● Lifestyle changes that can help manage PCOS, including diet, exercise, and stress management. ● Medical treatments for PCOS, including medications and supplements to manage symptoms and reduce risk of developing other health conditions. ● The controversy around insulin resistance and its contribution to the metabolic aspect of PCOS. ● The role of traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture in managing PCOS symptoms.
Bio: Sandro Graca MSc, Lic. TCM, FABORM
