As a Woman

Cycle Tracking and Fertility Q&A


Listen Later

Dr. Natalie Crawford answers voicemail questions about cycle tracking and fertility.


  1. I am a 32-year-old who just got off birth control. Should I see a fertility specialist sooner or continue trying naturally for 6 months, given my low AMH result of 0.336? What are the pros and cons of each approach?
  2. I have been on birth control for 15 years. What is the best way to track ovulation and time intercourse for conception?
  3. What could be causing my spotting after ovulation, and what additional testing or treatment options should I consider?
