We’re digging into depression and the link to a fertility diagnosis.

Many people have dealt with depression for years before they were even trying to conceive.

Conventional medicine will give you a diagnosis and perhaps even medication, which many people take for years without digging deeper to figure out why it happened in the first place.

The conversation around mental health is changing.

But what if it’s not depression?

The gut-brain connection is well-studied and documented.

This is a red flag and a missed healing opportunity if you have low AMH/high FSH, DOR/POI or are on the fertility journey.

If you are dealing with depression and/or anxiety, let’s get to the root cause to improve pregnancy success.

Today I'm welcoming Dr. Achina Stein. Dr. Stein is an Amazon international bestselling author of "What If It's NOT Depression? Your Guide to Finding Answers and Solutions", a certified practitioner of the Institute for Functional Medicine and a board-certified psychiatrist.

 

In this episode, you'll learn:

1) The difference between situation and clinical depression

2) Antidepressants and if and why it is appropriate to taper off medication

3) The mind-gut connection. Which testing can help identify healing opportunities
