Fertility advice can be wrong even when the person giving it meant well. In this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, Dr. Mark Amols explores how reassurance, incomplete evaluations, and well-intentioned attempts to “save money” can sometimes delay the fertility care patients actually need.

This episode looks at the emotional stress patients feel when they realize they may have lost time, the difference between bad intentions and bad outcomes, and why advice like “just keep trying,” “your labs are normal,” or “at least you can get pregnant” can sometimes miss the bigger picture.

Dr. Amols also discusses when OB/GYNs can appropriately help with fertility concerns, when referral to a fertility specialist matters, and why good advice should include a reason, a timeline, a next step, and a point where the plan changes.
