    Fertility after 40 doesn’t just need science—it needs strategy, support, and sometimes a fresh look at what’s fueling your body and your journey.

    In this episode of Sperm Meets Egg, we’re joined by Tasha Jennings, ND, a Melbourne-based Fertility Naturopath, Nutritionist, and host of the Conceive Baby Podcast.

    We’ll explore:

    ✔ How your diet and lifestyle choices impact egg quality and fertility outcomes

    ✔ What supplements and nutrients may give your body an extra edge

    ✔ The emotional and mental toll of fertility over 40—and how to navigate it with strength and clarity

    ✔ Real patient success stories and integrative approaches that make a difference

    💬 Plus, we’ll be taking LIVE questions during the show.

  • PGT-A: Precision or Peril—Are We Discarding Good Embryos?
    2025/05/01

    Tonight on the Sperm Meets Egg Show, we’re diving into one of the most debated questions in IVF:

    Are we throwing away embryos that could become healthy babies?

    We’ll explore the science behind Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidy (PGT-A), challenge the idea that “abnormal” always means non-viable, and break down the latest data, controversies, and clinical insights.

    Join Dr. Wael Salem and me for a candid conversation about what PGT-A can—and can’t—really tell us, and how this impacts real-world decisions for patients and providers alike.

  • What No One Wants to Talk About: Death in Pregnancy & the Story of Hailey Okula
    2025/04/17

    No one wants to talk about it—but we need to.

    The tragic death of ER nurse and influencer Hailey Okula, just hours after giving birth to her IVF-conceived son, has left countless women grieving, fearful, and full of questions.

    This week on Sperm Meets Egg, we open the conversation that too often gets pushed aside:

    Why are women still dying during pregnancy—and what do you really need to know to stay safe?

    Dr. Mark Amols and Dr. Wael Salem explore:

    ✤ The real statistics behind maternal mortality

    ✤ The most common—and rare—causes of death during pregnancy

    ✤ The truth about amniotic fluid embolism (AFE)

    ✤ And why fear shouldn't guide your fertility journey

    This episode is part tribute, part truth-telling, and entirely focused on giving you the tools to navigate pregnancy with knowledge and confidence.
