AMH and High NK Cells Don't Dictate Your Fertility Future: The Real Truth About Infertility & IVF

21 minutes

“If you have never gotten pregnant or are dealing with reoccurring miscarriages or even dealing with secondary infertility, the likelihood of knowing you have high natural killer cells, and the likelihood of you getting and staying pregnant soon is low without all the medical assistance.”

Topics Discussed:

🦩 Recognizing and addressing high NK cells through lifestyle changes.

🦩 The roles of AMH, FSH, and natural killer cells in fertility.

🦩 How inflammation and poor cellular health affect fertility.

🦩 Misconceptions about egg quality and natural killer cells.

🦩 Meditation and intuition in decision-making during the TTC process.

🦩 Importance of surrender and emotional health for conception.

How do AMH and natural killer (NK) cell counts define your fertility potential? The AMH and NK cell scores indicate cellular health but do not set your fertility in stone.

In this episode of the Finding Fertility podcast, I discuss the complexities of understanding AMH, natural killer cells, and egg quality. I explain why fertility is a whole-body process requiring lifestyle, diet, and mental well-being changes.

Listen in to learn the importance of pausing for deeper emotional and physical healing after recurrent miscarriages. You will also learn the importance of embracing surrender, trusting your body’s healing process, and focusing on overall health.

“When working on complete body health, you are fixing everything at once because your body is connected.”

Episode Highlights:

[02:20] The connection between cellular health and fluctuating AMH levels and why your AMH and FSH don’t dictate your fertility future.

[03:52] Understanding that elevated natural killer cells indicate high inflammation in the body and should only be activated by foreign invaders.

[05:08] Why AMH and natural killer cells reflect overall cellular health, not just egg quality, which can improve with lifestyle changes.

[07:18] The importance of supporting health rather than chasing perfection when trying to get and stay pregnant.

[09:26] The importance of pausing for deeper emotional and physical healing after recurrent miscarriages.

[11:36] How healing whole-body health will naturally address issues like natural killer cells and uterine lining.

[14:40] The importance of gut health in controlling inflammation, which can support your fertility journey.

[16:00] How diagnosis-seeking sometimes detracts from the whole-body healing approach and why you should follow your intuition when doing it.

[18:50] A meditation exercise for decision-making to help you trust your intuition over external pressures and influences.
