Top picks
G
GLP-1 agonists
"The most intriguing part of the conversation for me right now is GLP-1s and their use for potential chronic inflammatory disease like endometriosis. I will have patients go on a GLP-1 low dose for three months we have to take stop them and then go through a cycle of different IVF outcomes we will see more embryos in the lab"
H
Human Growth Hormone
"I've used human growth hormone for years and years and years, right? There's not an FDA approval to use HGH for egg quality. Yet, we see that it can improve egg quality in the right patient in the lab."

Biotin
negative
"Biotin levels of taking a biotin supplementation of 300 micrograms or more for seven days can actually influence your lab assays for sex hormones or for any steroid hormone actually."
Curcumin
negative
"I don't usually recommend it in a supplement form. Like I never recommend it. I think if you have a doctor who's giving it for very specific purpose, you might be a unique person who has excess inflammation they're trying to target, but that's not something that I recommend, but cooking with it is fine."
Depo Provera
negative
"This is a high-dose intramuscular progesterone shot that can prevent ovulation for three months. But one single dose can prevent ovulation for 18 months. So this is that one exception where if you want to get pregnant potentially in the next two years, please don't get Depo Provera."
NSAIDs
negative
"If women take NSAIDs around the time of ovulation, Advil, ibuprofen, Aleve, they'll prevent the follicle from rupturing. Yes. So they will go through the hormonal changes of ovulation, but the egg will not be released."
Teflon
negative
"I went on this journey to get rid of Teflon in our kitchen because I studied PFCs."
