Ep 64: Natural Pregnancy after 3 years of IVF


Listen Later

Brittany is a Registered Nurse who lives in Ontario, Canada, with her husband, two Children, and dog Paisley. She enjoys hiking, baking, and spending time with my family and friends. After getting married at age 26 and coming off of birth control, Brittany’s cycles never returned. She and her husband, and I were informed by an endocrinologist that IVF was our only option to conceive. After years of fertility treatments, they were blessed with their daughter and son, but Brittany always wondered if her lifestyle was the cause of my HA diagnosis. After taking the leap to join the Food Freedom Fertility program, Brittany was able to regain my period and conceive our third child, due in November, naturally on my second recovery cycle.
