Dr. Natalie Crawford discusses Olympian Lolo Jones sharing her vulnerable IVF story. Later she explains recurrent pregnancy losses—what it means, what tests should be done, and recommendations for treatment. Approximately 15–25% of pregnancies end in a miscarriage, but recurrent pregnancies account for less than 5%.

Finally, Natalie answers your social media questions during her segment FFS—For Fertility’s Sake. Do I need to take a month off fertility treatments after a chemical pregnancy? When is it time to consider switching clinics? How can you tell if the fallopian tubes are damaged?  

Don't forget to ask your questions on Instagram for next week’s For Fertility’s Sake segment when you see the question box on Natalie’s page @nataliecrawfordmd.
