The Fertility Crisis: What’s Really Affecting Conception Today with WeNatal Co-Founder Ronit Menashe


Listen Later

We’re facing a fertility crisis that few people are truly talking about. Sperm counts have dropped by more than 50% in the last 50 years, infertility now affects 1 in 5 couples, and modern stress, toxins, and lifestyle shifts are making it harder than ever to conceive. But there is hope — and it starts with awareness.

In this episode of HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with Ronit Menashe, co-founder of WeNatal, to explore the future of fertility and what every couple needs to know before trying to conceive. Ronit opens up about her personal journey of loss, discovery, and purpose that led her to create a company reshaping how we think about preconception health — for both women and men.
Together we dive into the often-overlooked role of male fertility, the concept of “Trimester Zero” (the 100 days before conception that set the stage for pregnancy health), and why lifestyle factors like sleep, stress, toxins, and diet play such a powerful role in outcomes. We also touch on sensitive but necessary conversations around miscarriage, hormone health, birth control, and the emotional toll of the fertility journey.
This episode is equal parts science, story, and soul — a guide to reclaiming hope, preparing your body, and reframing fertility as an opportunity for empowerment rather than fear. Whether you’re just beginning to think about starting a family, navigating infertility, or simply curious about the hidden links between environment, lifestyle, and reproductive health, this conversation will leave you with knowledge, tools, and inspiration to move forward with clarity.
