• The difference between functional medicine and naturopathy when it comes to fertility and overall health (including a mindset shift to improve your fertility and the health of you and your baby).
  
  
• Common root causes that make conceiving and staying pregnant difficult even with normal fertility numbers because Western Medicine doesn’t know to test for these issues
