Getting Pregnant with High FSH | Understanding Fertility Treatment Options

If you've ever been told your FSH is too high or that you're not a good candidate for IVF, today's episode will help you understand what that number actually means and the many ways you can still support your fertility. When most people hear "high FSH," they immediately think poor ovarian reserve or low egg count. That's not the full story. In this episode, we look at what high FSH signals, how to interpret it alongside other markers, and what both conventional and functional fertility options can help you move forward with clarity.

You'll learn:

• What high FSH actually measures and why context matters when paired with AMH, estradiol, and AFC • How inflammation, stress, thyroid imbalance, sleep, and environmental toxins influence FSH • Conventional treatment options such as mini IVF, natural cycle IVF, Letrozole, and individualized stimulation protocols • How functional fertility improves the internal environment so your ovaries respond better to any treatment • The key labs, nutrients, and lifestyle factors that support egg quality and hormone communication in high FSH cases

This episode is especially for you if:

• You've been told you have high FSH or diminished ovarian reserve and worry the window is closing • You've had canceled IVF cycles or poor responses and want to understand what else you can do • You want to see how a functional fertility approach can support egg quality so your next steps feel strategic and not desperate
