This week Dr. Natalie Crawford dives into her segment Fertility in the News and talks about the myths and inaccuracies about Kourtney Kardashian’s IVF journey. Natalie discusses what it really means when Kourtney Kardashian said her fertility medication put her into menopause and why drinking semen does not help with thyroid levels.   

Later, Natalie helps you understand the luteal phase and discusses what this phase means for understanding symptoms in your menstrual cycle, ovulation and pregnancy. Finally, Natalie answers your social media questions during her segment, FFS – For Fertility's Sake. How can you help fertility when diagnosed with PCOS? Can you take oral contraceptive pills to extend your fertility? Is it normal to feel cramps and bloating when ovulating? Don't forget to ask your questions on Instagram for FSS when you see the question box on Natalie’s page @nataliecrawfordmd.
