This week Dr. Natalie Crawford dives into her segment Fertility in the News and discusses the James MacDougall family court case in the UK and the risks of fragile-X syndrome. Later, Natalie discusses the different causes of bleeding in early pregnancy and why it’s important to establish early prenatal care. Finally, Natalie answers your social media questions during her segment, FFS – For Fertility's Sake. When is the right time to consider IVF? What is a normal HCG level and what are the indications of a possible miscarriage? What is a chemical pregnancy? What is an SIS, and when do I need it?
