Hello! Welcome back to another episode of the Owning Your Sexual Self podcast! This week I'm joined by Dr Jaime Knopman, a board certified reproductive endocrinologist and one of the leading voices in fertility preservation today. Jaime brings clarity, honesty, and real world perspective to conversations that are often filled with fear, confusion, and pressure. We're talking all about infertility and her upcoming book Own Your Fertility: From Egg Freezing to Surrogacy, How to Take Charge of Your Body and Your Future. This conversation is empowering, grounding, and full of information every woman deserves to have.

In this episode:

• How fertility works and why egg supply changes with age
• When people should start thinking about fertility health
• Common fertility myths and misunderstandings
• What it means to be proactive rather than reactive with fertility care
• What egg freezing is and who may want to consider it
• When surrogacy becomes part of the fertility conversation
• The importance of emotional support, self compassion, and staying grounded through fertility decisions

Thank you so much for listening!  Don't forget to share on your social media and tag me if you loved this episode!
