How are we supposed to make informed decisions about our fertility when there's so much conflicting information? In this episode, I'm joined by Dr Pavan Minhas, a consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist, to unpack some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding fertility, from the biological clock and fertility testing, to male infertility and the advice we're seeing all over social media. Together, we explore what the science actually tells us and how we can make more informed decisions about our reproductive health, without unnecessary fear. We also talk about: 🧬 Why men contribute to up to 50% of infertility cases 💊 Does being on the pill for 10 years affect your fertility? ⏰ What actually happens to your fertility after 35 🥚 Why AMH testing can’t tell you how likely you are to get pregnant 📱 Which viral fertility hacks actually have scientific evidence?

NOTE: The average age of women freezing their eggs in the UK is about 35 (HFEA, 2023). It is important to discuss what’s included in the cost with your provider, if you are looking at freezing your eggs. AMH - The figures mentioned are a hypothetical example. AMH falls with age, but the rate varies between individuals and can’t be predicted from one test. Speak to a doctor about your results.
