48: At home fertility screening with Dr. Amy Beckley

When Amy and her husband tried to get pregnant, they suffered through several years of infertility, including seven miscarriages and two rounds of IVF – the second of which resulted in her son.  When Amy decided she wanted another child (without another round of IVF), she used her background in hormone signaling to uncover a progesterone problem known as a luteal phase defect. In today's episode, I interview Dr. Amy Beckley, the founder of Proov and the inventor of the first and only FDA-cleared test to confirm ovulation at home.  We dive deep into Dr. Amy's challenge with infertility and how it was the catalyst to change her career and launch Proov. She shares how you can easily take fertility back into your own hands at home without having to solely rely on the medical system.

Episode Highlights

• Dr. Amy's struggle with low progesterone, seven miscarriages and an unexplained infertility diagnosis
