You may be wondering if you read this title properly. Yes, I’am actually implying that music can be therapeutic for fertility. Mostly by means of reducing stress, since the stress response has such a dramatic impact on your hormones. The stress of trying to conceive can be all-consuming. Music has been proven to alter brain waves and reduce cortisol (your main stress hormone). Why not use smooth tunes to improve wellbeing as you go through this challenging time?

Music has been a part of human culture for millennia, and its effects on the human body have been widely explored. Music can stimulate the release of endorphins, our which can boost mood and promote relaxation. In fact, certain types of relaxing music can also modulate heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing. Music actually helps regulate some hormonal feedback systems, such as your HPA axis (hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis). The HPA regulates how stress affects other systems, such as your reproductive hormones.

It’s no secret that chronic stress can wreck havoc on the body, often disrupting ovulation cycles, suppressing progesterone production or and causing free radical damage. Research suggests that music – with its ability to soothe, uplift, and even regulate physiological responses – has the potential to be an incredibly valuable tool in the journey towards conception. A study of 60 female volunteers, for example, suggests that calming music brought down their stress responses almost instantly. So, Whether you're trying to conceive naturally or undergoing fertility treatments, incorporating music into your daily routine might not only enhance your fertility but also make your journey more enjoyable. Tune into today’s episode to get the goods on all things music and fertility.

• The effects of stress on the reproductive system

Todays’ episode shines a spotlight on the importance of food as medicine when it comes to enhancing your fertility. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to overlook the profound connection between the foods we consume and our overall health. Yet, this relationship is incredibly crucial. Viewing food as medicine encourages us to view our diet not merely as a means to satisfy our hunger, but as a powerful tool to enhance our health, prevent diseases, and promote longevity. All of which are essential for promoting healthy fertility. Today, we look at three foods in particular: watermelon, beetroot & ginger and their relationship to uterine receptivity.

Watermelon is rich in antioxidants is is linked to increasing NO (nitric oxide), a potent vasodilator (i.e. improves blood flow). Beetroot is also rich in several other bioactive compounds that also enhance blood flow and provide antioxidant and antiinflammatory benefits, particularly for disorders characterized by chronic inflammation. Not to mention that it is a great vegetarian source of iron. Last but not least, ginger! This superfood possesses multiple biological activities to enhance uterine receptivity and increase blood flow. Together - they make for a killer fertility enhancing combination.

The data suggest that the intake of beetroot, watermelon and ginger juice significantly improved implantation and pregnancy rates. For example, a randomized study enrolled 436 female patients undergoing IVF with ICSI cycles over a period of 3 years. The clinical pregnancy rate (41% vs. 22%) were significantly higher in the "juice" group compared to the control group.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is making headlines in the field of fertility, with ovarian PRP emerging as a promising approach for women facing certain egg quality challenges. This type of treatment involves injecting a woman's own platelet-rich plasma into her ovaries. PRP is a concentration of platelets and growth factors created from a patient's own blood. These growth factors can stimulate cellular regeneration and may help to improve ovarian function and increase IVF success. Its been used for decades in the beauty industry, hair growth and in healing a variety of conditions. Why not try it for fertility as well?!

Dr. Jesse Hade, MD, REI and his colleagues at Generation Next Fertility Center in NYC conducted a study to assess just that. They found that this therapy may be particularly beneficial for women experiencing premature ovarian failure or diminished ovarian reserve, conditions that impact the quantity and quality of eggs available for fertilization. Ovarian PRP is also being explored as a treatment option for women who have had poor responses to IVF cycles.

Tune in as we are joined by Dr. Jesse Hade, MD, REI - a compassionate board-certified reproductive endocrinologist with over two decades of private practice experience, is a leading expert in fertility and has earned numerous awards for his research. Is Ovarian PRP right for you? Listen in and find out!
