Amy is back on the TMD podcast and today we're discussing luteal phases, progesterone, and how it all plays into getting and staying pregnant. She shares why using the term "luteal phase defect" may be a turn off to your doctor and how progesterone can affect each stage of your fertility journey (even birth and postpartum of a full-term baby).

On this episode of The Miscarriage Doula Podcast, Arden sits down with Sabrina who is a doula for the TFMR (Termination for Medical Reasons) community. Women who have experienced this type of pregnancy loss often feel even more isolated because they aren't sure where they fit in. Sabrina and Arden break down those walls, talk about the reality of abortion laws and how they affect loss moms, and how we can be more inclusive to moms who have suffered the compassionate choice of termination for medical reasons.
