I'm thrilled to introduce you to a groundbreaking innovation in fertility care: needle-free IVF. My guest is Dr. Rachel Mandelbaum, a fertility doctor, researcher, and patient advocate who is leading the charge to make IVF more accessible and less intimidating for everyone, especially those who are needle-phobic.

In our conversation, we dive deep into the themes of patient empowerment, challenging outdated norms in reproductive medicine, and the importance of offering more compassionate, personalized care. We discuss the science behind needle-free IVF, the impact of patient-centered innovation, and how small changes can make a big difference in the IVF experience. This episode is all about rethinking what's possible in fertility care and advocating for what patients truly deserve.

Can the surgeon you choose for your endometriosis surgery make or break your chances of getting pregnant?

My guest is Dr. Antonio Gargiulo, a reproductive endocrinologist and advanced reproductive surgeon in the Boston area. He has spent nearly three decades at the intersection of fertility and complex gynecologic surgery, with particular expertise in deep endometriosis, fibroids, adenomyosis, and fertility-focused minimally invasive and robotic surgery.

Alison is a fitness expert, author, and mother of four who has a unique and beautiful perspective on perseverance, self-advocacy, and hope.

| Getting the Most Out of Your First Visit with a Fertility Doctor | 22 oct. 2026 | 00:16:28 | |
Regardless of who you see for fertility care, you deserve the best—personalized treatment. I realize that not everyone can come to see me, and I won't be around forever. This information is a valuable resource as you begin your fertility journey, whoever it is with and whenever it takes place. The inspiration behind this topic? Well—it started with some snooping. Several times each day, I hear my receptionist answer the phone and new patients on the other end asking what they can expect at a new patient consult. The mystery is about to be revealed!

| Infertility and Your Relationship: How Couples Can Stay Connected Through the Fertility Journey with Dr. Clay Brigance | 21 oct. 2026 | 00:36:08 | |
Ever wonder why some couples grow closer through infertility while others grow apart? In this episode, I'm diving into one of the most important (and least talked about) sides of the fertility journey: the impact of infertility on relationships, and what you can do to stay connected as a couple if you're both hurting or stressed by the journey. My guest is Dr. Clay Brigance, a licensed counselor, author, podcaster, and relationship researcher who studies the mental health and relationship impacts of infertility and reproductive loss. After experiencing infertility himself - including male factor, IUI, IVF, pregnancy complications, and a life-threatening postpartum hemorrhage and emergency hysterectomy - Clay set out to answer one question: why do some couples come together through infertility while others fall apart? His research with over 1,000 couples led to his Four Pillars of Connection, a framework that helps couples navigate emotional attunement, conflict, disrupted dreams of parenthood, and intimacy.

| Your Egg Thawing Party: What Happens When it's Time for the Big Unfreeze? | 20 oct. 2026 | 00:10:56 | |
Egg freezing is IVF without the F (fertilization). You go through a standard cycle of In Vitro Fertilization in which you take hormone shots that stimulate the growth of eggs. A doctor like me then extracts your eggs through a simple surgical procedure, and I work with an embryologist to preserve your eggs in liquid nitrogen until you're ready to use them.

| Egg Freezing Party with Dr. Aimee | 19 oct. 2026 | 00:08:49 | |
Egg Freezing parties are safe and surgery-free gatherings of women (and sometimes men) to learn more about the process of freezing your eggs (or sperm). Beyond that, we talk in general about fertility and how every woman (and man) can take a proactive role in preserving their fertility options. There is humor. There is honest talk. Most importantly, you will learn about clear steps you can take after the party is over. This is not merely an information session, this is meant to inspire action!

| Endometriosis and Fertility: When Surgery Helps and When It Doesn't with guest Dr. Sadikah Behbehani | 14 oct. 2026 | 00:29:58 | |
Does endometriosis surgery actually improve your fertility, or could it make things worse? In this episode, I am joined by with Dr. Sadikah Behbehani, a surgeon who is double fellowship-trained in both reproductive endocrinology and infertility (REI) and minimally invasive gynecologic surgery. She specializes in complex endometriosis excision, pelvic pain, and fertility-sparing surgery - and she's one of the few doctors in the country who can both operate on deep infiltrating endometriosis and guide your IVF journey. We dig into when excision surgery helps fertility, when it doesn't, and why so many patients are told the wrong thing about their options. Get the full show notes at Dr. Aimee's website.

| This is Fertility Mythbusting | 13 oct. 2026 | 00:17:14 | |
I do this with my patients all the time. There's a lot of truth-telling that goes on in my office, and often myth-busting is necessary to get to the truth. Perhaps you can relate — there are so many headlines and hearsay stories about fertility. Do you struggle to disseminate between what is evidence-based and what is not? I don't care where you live or who your doctor is. My goal is to share what I know in the event that it's even the tiniest bit helpful to you and your fertility journey.

| ReceptivaDX Test and How it Can Help You with guest Dr. Bruce Lessey | 12 oct. 2026 | 00:21:53 | |
I'm so excited to have Dr. Bruce Lessey of ReceptivaDX join me on the podcast. Dr. Lessey has dedicated his research life to studying the lining of the uterus and more specifically, how to help embryos stick better. His research led to the discovery of the role of BCL-6 in the lining of the uterus as a diagnostic test patients can have done by their doctors to guide them toward the best protocol for transfer success. The test isn't for women just going through IVF either. This test can also be done to help women get an endometriosis diagnosis without going through a laparoscopy surgery.

| Egg Freezing: Fertility, Freedom, and Facts on "The Gynarchy Podcast" with guest Dr. Aimee | 08 oct. 2026 | 00:47:12 | |
I'm excited to share this episode, where I joined Dr. Kirti Patel to talk all about egg freezing on The Gynarchy Podcast. We discuss why egg freezing matters, how it works, and what every woman should know about her fertility options. As a fertility specialist with deep roots in women's health (and a family legacy in OB/GYN), I'm passionate about empowering women with the knowledge and choices they deserve. In this conversation, I share my personal journey, the inspiration behind my work, and why I believe education is the key to reproductive autonomy. During our interview, Dr. Patel and I dive into the evolving landscape of egg freezing, the cultural and societal factors influencing women's choices, and the realities (both medical and emotional) of fertility preservation. We discuss the science, the misconceptions, and the importance of making informed decisions, whether you're considering egg freezing for yourself or just want to better understand your reproductive health. My goal is to demystify the process and help women feel confident, not fearful, about their options. In this episode, we cover:

| Your Frozen Eggs, Embryos and Sperm: What Happens Next? with Charlie Boyer | 07 oct. 2026 | 00:25:20 | |
Have you ever wondered what actually happens to your frozen eggs, embryos, and sperm after they leave the fertility clinic? In this episode I'm uncovering the hidden world of cryostorage: from how your reproductive tissues are kept safe for years, to why storage prices vary so wildly, to how private equity has quietly taken over parts of the fertility industry and what that means for patients. If you have anything frozen or are planning to, this conversation will change how you think about where your samples live. My guest is Charlie Boyer, co-founder and CEO of Generations Cryovault, an independent cryostorage company. Charlie brings years of experience in cryogenic storage — starting in cord blood banking before pivoting to fertility storage with a mission to bring transparency, fair pricing, and rigorous safety standards to an industry he saw as the "Wild West."

| 9 Things That Increase Your Risk of Infertility | 06 oct. 2026 | 00:14:56 | |
If you know me, you know that I hate the word infertility. I believe that everyone who walks through my doors is fertile and no matter what we learn, can be a parent. Fertility is often taken for granted. It's precious. It declines over time, and there are some well studied factors, nine that I highlight here, that put it at risk. They are:

| Top 5 IVF Setbacks and How to Reframe Them to Stay Hopeful | 05 oct. 2026 | 00:07:52 | |
In this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I'm diving into one of the most important parts of the IVF journey: how to cope with setbacks. IVF can be frustrating, emotional, and downright hard. But it can also be empowering, educational, and full of possibility. I'm walking you through the five most common IVF challenges, and offering tools to help you reframe them so you can move forward feeling hopeful and in control. We'll talk about what happens when your cycle gets delayed, when your follicles don't grow as expected, and what to do when the numbers (eggs, embryos, blastocysts) don't go your way. I'll also share real patient stories and offer perspective on how to stay grounded and supported through every twist in the journey. In this episode, we cover:

| The 2WW: When Does Implantation Occur? | 25 sept. 2026 | 00:08:42 | |
Discover all the answers to some of the most common questions you may have about your menstrual cycle, hormones in your menstrual cycle, ovulation, implantation, and the 2ww (two week wait). If you are trying to get pregnant, you may have heard the term—two week wait, the often nervous time of waiting between ovulation and taking a pregnancy test. For many, this is a dreaded time because it's hard to know exactly what is happening. But by learning more about your cycle, you can have more knowledge about what might happen. The implantation window is during the two week wait. Since progesterone is the hormone responsible for supporting implantation, it must be present during the entire implantation window. You can track your progesterone during this window by tracking PdG, progesterone in urine. Proov has unique testing capabilities to test PdG during the implantation window to confirm successful ovulation. Studies show PdG levels are incredibly important for implantation and pregnancy success, for example, women with high PdG during the implantation window were 75% more likely to get pregnant. In contrast, women with low PdG had a miscarriage rate of 90%. Read the full show notes on Dr. Aimee's website. You can find more about tracking your implantation window and PdG at Proov (and get 20% off): https://proovtest.com/discount/AIMEE20 Do you have questions about IVF?

Embryo Glue is one of the most talked-about IVF add-ons. Does it actually lives up to the hype?
I invited Dr. Nirvika Singh Sharma, associate lab director at Ovation Fertility San Antonio, to share what her new research found about embryo glue.
Dr. Sharma is a physician, reproductive scientist, and embryologist who recently led a major study presented at ESHRE examining whether EmbryoGlue, a high-concentration hyaluronan transfer medium, actually improves outcomes in frozen embryo transfer cycles. We dig into what embryo glue really is, what her research found across 593 euploid FET cycles, and what patients should know before paying extra for this popular IVF add-on.

| Becoming A Changemaker on Your Fertility Journey with guest Alex Budak | 22 sept. 2026 | 00:32:14 | |
Read the full show notes at Dr. Aimee's website. If there is anything I know about fertility patients it's that you all know a lot about being on a journey that often involves embracing change. You become more resilient, and you follow a "growth" mindset. You cling to hope and you let it lead the way forward. It's no surprise that I would have a social entrepreneur and changemaker on the show. You have a lot in common with what Alex teaches and writes about: "Developing a changemaker mindset often requires holding two seemingly contradictory traits simultaneously: Having a strong personal vision yet being open to collaborating with others. Employing drive and determination to push through barrier after barrier yet knowing when to step back and recharge." Today we're talking about how to become a Changemaker on your fertility journey. Here are three traits he believes a changemaker has: 1. There's always another way

| Everything You Need to Know Before Picking an Egg Donor | 11 sept. 2026 | 00:27:04 | |
Whether you're an egg donor now, if you're considering it, or you know someone that is — I'm glad you're here. Young women are donating eggs at the time they are most fertile, often times not realizing the implications of what that means. I've had patients come to me in their 40s without enough healthy eggs of their own to conceive. When they share with me that they themselves donated their young and healthy eggs in their 20s or 30s, but that none are available for them, I feel frustrated and sad for them. Frustrated enough that I'm doing something about it. Freeze & Share is a program that helps young egg donors save some eggs for themselves should they need them, while helping another family conceive when they can't on their own. Suffice to say, I don't want anyone to look back at their egg donation and wish they'd known more. Here is your chance — I want to give you all the information I have so that you're equipped with the knowledge to make the best decision for your personal situation.

| Revolutionizing Donor Conception: Danielle Winston on Known Sperm Donors and The Seed Scout (Fertility Expert Series) | 07 sept. 2026 | 00:09:49 | |
I'm talking all about the benefits of known sperm donation with Danielle Winston of The Seed Scout @theseedscout on today's brand new episode of The Egg Whisperer Show. When Danielle and her partner, practicing pediatrician Dr. Paige Kennedy-Winston, were looking to build their own family, they quickly realized the space of sperm banking was riddled with roadblocks for most families. The process was highly impersonal, the anonymity and lack of diversity adding to the problem, and options seemed extremely limited. That's when Danielle and Dr. Kennedy-Winston took matters into their own hands and found their own donor. They got the idea for their sperm donor matchmaking concierge service, The Seed Scout, from their own first-hand experience. With Danielle's business and law background and Dr. Kennedy-Winston's pediatric experience, they made The Seed Scout a reality by taking a human-centered, ethical approach to known sperm donation that's founded on the belief that it's a basic human right to know the identity of one's donor and genetic origins. In this conversation, Danielle and I talked all about: 💙How The Seed Scout is different from traditional sperm banks 💙The extensive screening process used to make sure donors are aligned with their clients 💙Why it was so important to learn about and build from the perspective of donor-conceived individuals 💙How The Seed Scout guides families through the legal and logistical aspects of donor conception to ensure a smooth, ethical process 💙How they balance the seriousness of family planning with creating a fun and fulfilling experience for their clients If you're curious about sperm donation and want to understand the process, your most ethical options, and how you can actually make this fun, you're not going to want to miss this episode!

| Exploring Donor Conception and Infertility Advocacy with Our Hearts Match Author Victoria Nino | 28 août 2026 | 00:34:36 | |
I am talking to the incredible Victoria Nino, author of Our Hearts Match, donor conception advocate, and mom of two about one of the most vulnerable moments in a fertility journey: what happens after IVF fails.
Victoria has lived through multiple failed IVF cycles, stage three endometriosis, years of heartbreak, and ultimately became a mother twice over through donor egg conception via two very different paths. Her story is raw, honest, and full of the kind of hard-won wisdom that only comes from truly living it.
We dive deep into the emotional rollercoaster of failed IVF cycles, the grief that so often goes unacknowledged, and what it really takes to open the door to donor eggs, not out of defeat, but out of empowerment. Victoria shares how education, community, and even a spiritual trip to Thailand helped her find her footing, and why she believes you don't have to be 100% emotionally ready, you just have to be willing to take a peek.

| Why Didn't Your IUI Work? | 21 août 2026 | 00:13:48 | |
One of the most common questions I get asked is "Why didn't my IUI work?" It's a great question because there are many factors that come into play with intrauterine insemination. If you're my patient, we'd start by checking the Fallopian tubes, uterus, and sperm quality first.⠀ But let's say you've done the #TUSHYcheck, the tubes are clear and everything else looks good. So why doesn't IUI work? The answer I share with my patients is: because you're human. Yes, it's really as simple as that. ⠀ To put IUI into perspective, 90% of the time it doesn't work. ⠀ So if your IUI didn't work, I want you to know that there's nothing wrong with you, and you're normal, and human. It's that simple.⠀ Do you have questions about IVF? The next live class call is on Monday, September 14 at 4pm PST (7pm EST), where Dr. Aimee will explain IVF and there will be time to ask her your questions live on Zoom.
