Katie: Howdy and welcome to The Wellness Mama Podcast. I’m Katie from wellnessmama.com. And this episode is all in regards to the root causes of infertility, why we’re seeing declining sperm depend and learn how to repair it. And I’m right here with Dr. Nashat Latib.

And she or he shares her personal private story, what led her into this work from being an emergency doctor and the way it got here from a narrative inside her personal life. And we additionally get to go deep on the purposeful medication facet of fertility, which I’ve not but touched on on this podcast. She talks about lots of the components that go into fertility, why in lots of instances {couples} are in a position to get pregnant naturally, even when they’ve been informed they’ll’t, or even when they’ve had IVF or IUI. And she or he takes a root trigger strategy that’s very individualized couple by couple, but in addition shares lots of the common issues which are useful on this podcast. She’s a extremely enjoyable interview in individual to speak to, and I feel that you’ll get pleasure from this dialog and study rather a lot. So let’s be a part of Dr. Nashat. Dr. Nashat, welcome and thanks a lot for being right here.
Nashat: Thanks for having me. I’m honored to be right here.
Katie: I feel we’re going to get into some essential matters immediately and also you’re going to get to unfold lots of perception into some probably very complicated areas of medication. And for background, earlier than we leap into these specifics, I might love so that you can give us slightly bit of truly your individual story as a result of I do know you began off as an ER physician after which transitioned into the work that you simply do now. And I feel this story additionally includes the start of your three youngsters in a manner. So I might love to listen to your background and your story and the way it led to what’s now your life’s work.
Nashat: Yeah, nice query. That’s a really concerned story. However yeah, heaps and many years within the emergency room. And I spent a few years really working in a stage one trauma heart within the Bronx. So you possibly can think about the scope of issues that I noticed was very, very broad. I lived in New York Metropolis for about 15 years earlier than I moved to Houston.
And what I noticed within the emergency room was I used to be discovering that we had been utilizing an acute care mannequin to deal with persistent illness. And so what occurred within the emergency room was we ended up having a revolving door. So sufferers would are available in and we’d deal with them. We might put a band help on the issue. They’d exit the door after which they’d instantly return and are available again.
So I began to note this sample and I believed, okay, effectively, clearly there’s one thing mistaken with this conventional mannequin. And there’s in all probability some paradigm shifts which are wanted, however fairly actually, I didn’t actually know what or how, as a result of I had gone to medical college and I used to be mainly simply working towards what I had been taught.
So quick ahead, a few years later, I sadly misplaced my mother in 2018 and he or she was palms down in all probability the healthiest individual I knew. She labored out often, she ate natural, you title it, she did all of it. Actually advanced carbohydrates, she type of did all of the issues. And sadly begin developed a really quickly progressive neurodegenerative illness. And right here I used to be as an ER physician, saved lives for a dwelling, but I couldn’t save my mother.
And so she went from effectively and spinning with me a number of instances every week to gone over a course of seven months. So it was very, very tragic. She was my finest good friend. And so I actually used her as a supply of inspiration for the whole lot I do immediately. And it was in that second that I noticed that the standard medical mannequin was not simply failing me and… My mother, one of many individuals I’ve beloved probably the most in my life, but in addition my sufferers.
And I began to look into different issues. Now, in fact, I type of began this journey in all probability a number of, many, a few years earlier than that, as a result of I’ve all the time been very dedicated to well being and being proactive about it. However I began to do some purposeful medication coaching, and that’s after I realized, okay, that is actually the route that I have to go. And, you realize, by that time, I had already had three children. You realize, utilizing the standard fertility strategy. So clearly in medical college, you undergo years of coaching. I used to be slightly older after I began. And so I fell into the class of unexplained infertility. So all my ranges had been regular. I used to be used to having common cycles. After which impulsively, right here I’m making an attempt month after month and unable to have these infants and develop the household of my desires.
So it was fascinating after I began to discover purposeful medication and went again and checked out all the ladders that I had finished throughout my fertility journey. And I had finished a number of rounds of IUI and IVF, spent effectively over 100 thousand {dollars} on therapies to have my three youngsters. And whereas I’ve all the time, you realize, and nonetheless proceed to really feel extraordinarily blessed, there was one thing very damaged after I seemed again into my information and realized that there have been clear root causes that had been protecting me from getting pregnant, and that in actuality, I didn’t want any of these fertility therapies within the first place. And that was a giant aha second for me after I realized one thing has bought to provide and one thing has bought to vary.
Katie: That is smart. And I do know that time period unexplained infertility appears to be one of many issues that’s on the rise. And to me, it is smart that… Not clearly having the medical background right here, however it is smart that there could be root causes. As a result of my understanding is that issues like our fertility and positively like our pores and skin well being, our physique views these as like not first line of protection vital. So if one thing else is happening within the physique that appears extra acute, the physique’s going to prioritize and it would even be, to my understanding, one thing so simple as like elevated stress ranges. Or if the physique thinks it’s at risk, it could not wish to prioritize the sources for issues like having the very best pores and skin we might have or making a child if it doesn’t really feel prefer it’s secure to try this.
However I do know there’s in all probability much more that goes into it past that. However is that what you imply by root causes? That there might be underlying issues within the physique that aren’t really inflicting a everlasting infertility, however a short lived one whereas the physique offers with these different issues?
Nashat: Completely, and also you hit the nail on the top. And there are such a lot of missed root causes that the standard fertility paradigm merely doesn’t deal with. So intestine well being, as an illustration, is a extremely massive one. Stress, you named it. I imply, the truth is that stress impacts our cortisol rhythm. So how a lot cortisol our our bodies naturally produce over the course of a day is altered after we are beneath extreme quantities of stress.
And right here’s the loopy factor is that our cortisol ranges really intervene with our intercourse hormone manufacturing. You realize, they intervene with our thyroid. They intervene with our sleep and our means to relaxation and restore at evening, which is such an vital a part of mobile restore. I imply, I might go on and on with regard to the basis causes. There are multifold. And sadly, the standard strategy to fertility actually doesn’t take a look at them. There’s numerous stones left unturned.
And I can’t inform you what number of {couples} have come to me and have been informed, as an illustration, they want a donor egg or, you realize, IVF is the one choice. And one, they get pregnant with out IVF and two, they find yourself doing it with their very own egg and never with a donor egg. So completely there are root causes.
There’s really type of a… A vignette or slightly metaphor that I used to type of discuss fertility and all of the fertility components. And, you realize, it’s actually female and male we’ve to think about. I additionally suppose that’s one of many greatest issues is in our conventional mannequin. Oftentimes we’re centered on the girl. And we’ve to deal with either side of the equation. And so I type of, I don’t know when you ever performed with dominoes whenever you had been little and lined them up and also you push one down they usually all go down. I see when you line it, I consider the dominoes as mainly female and male fertility components all combined collectively. And they also’re all combined collectively, we’re lining them up. But when a number of of them are just a bit too far aside, we’re going to push down the dominoes they usually’re not all going to go down, which doesn’t imply which you can’t get pregnant. It simply means we have to make some shifts, transfer a number of dominoes slightly nearer collectively, after which we will get pregnant naturally. Does that make sense?
Katie: It does make sense. And I might guess conjures up lots of hope in {couples}. I’m certain that eager to have a child and never having the ability to is a really deeply painful expertise. So in all probability that message brings lots of hope to {couples} who’re experiencing that. However it additionally looks as if that is going to be, it’s going to have optimistic ripples in so many areas as a result of I had one other visitor that defined it so superbly. She mentioned, each time you’re having what you’ll name a symptom, your physique is definitely mounting a therapeutic response. Your physique’s making an attempt to heal and both perhaps wants one thing it doesn’t have or it has one thing it doesn’t want. But when we will determine learn how to help our our bodies in that therapeutic response, then what we view because the symptom typically goes away.
And so I feel your root trigger perspective takes that under consideration so superbly and likewise conjures up hope that for lots of those {couples}, perhaps their infertility doesn’t want these extra in depth therapies. And I might guess by addressing that root trigger, they’re in all probability additionally growing their odds of a more healthy being pregnant and higher outcomes for the child as effectively, as a result of they’re attending to the extra foundational issues. Is that your expertise as effectively?
Nashat: Completely, completely, 100%. What we do within the 90 days pre-conception straight influences egg and sperm well being, and likewise clearly influences one, the possibilities of conception and the possibilities of having a wholesome child. And truly the scientific analysis and research have proven that by being proactive within the pre-conception interval, which is admittedly 90 days previous to conception, 90 to 120 days, you’ll even have a baby with fewer well being issues, not simply short-term, however really persistent long-term issues too.
I’m undecided when you’re acquainted or our viewers is conversant in the idea of Epigenetics, however Epigenetics is type of all the fashion proper now as a result of we even have the ability, regardless that we move down the identical DNA, we will’t change the DNA that we move down, however our DNA is advanced. So we’ve on and off switches for our DNA. And by making the proper selections and getting ready our our bodies, optimizing our well being throughout the 90 to 120 day preconception interval, we will really activate the nice DNA and switch off the unhealthy DNA. And so what you get is definitely a genetically extra favorable baby. Which is wild.
Katie: That’s fascinating and it is smart. I’m curious if perhaps new knowledge has up to date our understanding of this space, however I do know for a very long time it was thought that egg well being was considerably static and if that was the issue, there was nothing you could possibly do to enhance it. Is that also the case or as we’ve realized extra, is that really not as static as we as soon as thought?
Nashat: Completely false, 100%. Yeah, it’s completely a fluid factor. And AMH is a quantity that may typically be actually traumatic for girls who’re making an attempt to get pregnant. So AMH stands for Anti-Mullerian Hormone and it’s historically used as an indicator of ovarian reserve and like what number of eggs you might have left. And actually what’s AMH? I actually suppose it’s vital for girls to grasp that AMH is solely a hormone that’s produced by the outer layer of the egg that’s type of in hibernation within the ovary. And the cool factor is that by influencing egg well being, we will really enhance AMH. AMH was as soon as considered a static quantity that doesn’t change. Nevertheless, we’ve confirmed time and time once more that that’s certainly false.
Actually, my protocol has as a lot as quadrupled AMH in ladies. So historically, a lady with a low AMH might not be thought of, as an illustration, an IVF candidate. Particularly if they’ve an AMH as little as say 0.2. However in my expertise, I’ve been in a position to work on egg well being proactively with my {couples}, quadruple that AMH, after which they find yourself getting pregnant naturally and never even needing IVF. So it’s completely one thing we will affect. It’s by no means too late. And that’s a part of the rationale that I’m not, I don’t purchase into the idea that, you realize, 35 is just like the lifeless finish of the street, which is what we’ve been taught. What’s caught in medical college?
So, you realize, sadly, I feel a part of the issue is also that. It takes about 50 to 100 years for scientific research and analysis to type of grow to be the usual of care. And so lots of what we study in medical college is admittedly antiquated and relies on research which are utterly outdated versus I discover that in a root reason behind purposeful medication strategy we’re really being proactive and taking motion on research, analysis, and biochemistry that we’ve come to grasp within the final 10 to twenty years.
Katie: That’s such an excellent level. And it’s one of many causes I’m so fond of claiming on right here that on the finish of the day, we’re every our personal major well being care supplier, as a result of we’re those selecting the inputs that go in our physique every day, we’re selecting our way of life and food regimen components that may make such an enormous distinction. And we’re the one ones who’ve the duty for our personal well being. And I do suppose the very best outcomes occur when you might have suppliers such as you who’re deeply invested in studying the innovative science, understanding the affected person, taking a look at like asking the proper questions and attending to first ideas of this. However I feel it’s additionally actually vital for individuals to be the drivers of their very own well being and understand how a lot energy we’ve really to shift so a lot of these items in fertility and in each space of well being, I really feel like.
One other space I do know of this that’s typically talked about, and I’ve seen lots of information headlines round is the decline in sperm depend and the beautiful drastic numbers from even two generations in the past to now. Are you seeing that in your follow as effectively? And is that additionally reversible in particular person males?
Nashat: Completely. So really, sperm counts are projected to go to zero within the subsequent 40 to 50 years. How about that? I don’t know the place that’s going to depart, you realize, our youngsters and their youngsters sooner or later. However sure, completely. That is among the causes that I mandate after I work with {couples}, I actually need to work with each members of the couple, female and male, as a result of 50% of infertility does have a male issue related to it. So, you realize, it’s not utterly the person’s fault 50% of the time, however 50% of the time, there’s something contributing to the state of affairs.
I feel one of many issues is, as an illustration, lots of motility and morphology are at a decrease than they’ve actually ever been earlier than. And people numbers are persevering with to say no. So that’s one thing that we’re very proactively engaged on. And sure, it’s completely reversible. Once more, it takes, you realize, I feel one of many key issues for individuals to grasp is that it takes about 90 to 120 days for the sperm to develop. So we will begin from zero each time and create superb, you realize, sperm high quality, if we do the work. However it’s actually about optimizing, you realize, the physique in a wholesome atmosphere.
And that type of ties into what you had been speaking about earlier. And I all the time say the physique is wise, proper? So the physique is aware of when it’s a secure place to create a child, and when it ought to perhaps not. So I all the time inform my {couples} who’re struggling to conceive, it’s not as a result of you possibly can’t get pregnant, your physique is speaking to you, and it’s screaming for assist. So let’s give it the assistance and help that it wants, in order that we will get you simply, you realize, to your objective of rising your loved ones and pure conception.
Katie: I like that. And in addition to your level, I’ve seen this occur in different areas of medication as effectively. The way you talked about it might probably take a very long time for one thing to get from analysis into follow, which is smart, understanding how busy docs are and all the method that has to occur from one thing to be validated after which taught after which now grow to be widespread follow. However I do suppose it typically means there are gaps that individuals like purposeful medication docs and even sufferers, I see lots of sufferers, I’ve seen it within the thyroid area are type of driving that change by requesting totally different lab assessments or requesting totally different therapies. In order that’s again to that entire the very best outcomes occur when you might have an invested affected person and an informed physician working collectively as companions. So I like that that’s the way you view it as effectively.
And also you talked about your protocol that you’ve. I’m curious, I do know there’s in all probability rather a lot that goes into this, however what are among the baseline issues that you simply advocate to {couples} to start that means of enhancing fertility?
Nashat: Yeah, effectively, the very first thing is admittedly getting an entire image of what’s occurring. And I really did a reel about this in my Instagram speaking in regards to the labs that you actually need to get to work at fertility. You realize, I’m not a giant believer of needing loopy costly superior purposeful lab testing. Sure, there’s a time and a spot and I do use all of these assessments in my follow, however we will get actually, we will get began in a quite simple manner by simply doing common serum labs. So issues that I take a look at, as an illustration, are some markers for the intestine. We’re taking a look at markers for irritation. We’re in search of the opportunity of any autoimmune illness, thyroid. In fact we’re trying on the hormones, however fertility isn’t just about hormones and reproductive organs, it’s about the whole physique. So I do care what your lipid ranges are. There are lots of issues that I care about so as to put together for conception that aren’t essentially prioritized in your regular fertility journey. In order that’s undoubtedly one of many issues that I search for when it comes to evaluation.
And I additionally take a look at signs as a result of typically, such as you mentioned, the symptom is, it provides us lots of perception. We in purposeful medication have one thing known as a Medical Signs Questionnaire, which is a scientific instrument that we use to trace progress and likewise get an thought of what could also be occurring beneath the hood that’s not displaying up within the labs. As a result of it’s not, sure, we’re taking a look at labs and biochemistry, however I additionally care about what my sufferers and shoppers are feeling. So if any individual involves me they usually’re like, I’m sleeping terribly, I’ve utter exhaustion each morning. And regardless that I sleep for eight hours, I really feel like I’ve been hit by a truck within the morning. I could not essentially see that on an everyday serum lab, however that’s data for me that then I can glean from and take motion to create mainly a personalised plan that’s customizable to their biochemistry and what their physique must grow to be probably the most fertile self.
Katie: That to me is so hopeful to listen to as a result of I do know I had the expertise within the thyroid world of being informed my labs had been regular and telling a number of docs, however I’m having, my hair is falling out. I’m exhausted. I’m actually taking a nap in entrance of the door so my children can’t run in site visitors. I’m so drained. And they’d inform me like, effectively, that’s simply regular when you might have children. And in hindsight, it was not regular, however I’m so excited to listen to that increasingly, particularly in purposeful medication, which I feel is admittedly main this cost, we’re making an allowance for the precise expertise of the affected person together with the information that we now have a lot extra entry to. It is smart that each of these could be beneficial instruments on this course of and never unique of one another by any means.
Are there any widespread dietary issues that you simply see occurring or which are seemingly useful in enhancing fertility or dietary supplements or what are among the type of core locations you begin with that?
Nashat: Yeah, completely. I imply, I actually begin with fundamentals, proper? So I all the time say optimum well being is a lifelong journey as a result of all of us have room for enchancment, together with myself. So far as dietary tips, one of many first issues we wish to do is admittedly eradicate all of the extremely inflammatory meals. So issues like gluten, dairy, soy, corn, peanuts, these are issues that type of proper off the bat, we wish to actually eliminate. And I all the time inform my {couples} like, hear, this isn’t endlessly. That is for us to judge and type of lower irritation, lower stress on the physique. After which we will add them again in in a really custom-made, sluggish, managed manner to determine what’s been inflicting the issue.
I imply, there are such a lot of {couples} who come to me they usually don’t suppose {that a} sure meals is a matter. And it’s not till we eradicate it after which attempt to add it again in, that we begin to actually perceive what’s taking place within the physique.
I’ll provide you with only a whole facet instance, which is, you realize, pertains to my son. One among my twins was, my different children had been complaining that he was protecting them up as a result of he was loud night breathing a lot. And so, you realize, I didn’t actually suppose an excessive amount of of it, however then, you realize, ultimately one in every of them took a video and confirmed it to me the following morning and I used to be like, oh my gosh, yeah, he really isn’t actually respiratory effectively as a result of he’s loud night breathing so loudly. So he occurred to have a test up with a conventional pediatrician, which I like our pediatrician. And naturally she mentioned, effectively, perhaps he’s bought a tonsil and adenoid drawback. I feel he actually must go see ENT as a result of that is harmful that he’s respiratory like this.
So as a substitute of doing that, I made a decision to eradicate dairy. And inside two weeks the loud night breathing was gone. He now not had, you realize, this runny nostril that had type of sneezing and allergy kind signs. And that’s simply an instance in a baby and he’s solely 10 years previous of how one thing could also be inflicting an underlying type of baseline stage of irritation. And we might not even realize it. I additionally discover that lots of us study to reside with signs that we expect are regular and we don’t actually understand how good we will really feel till they’re gone. After which we had been like, oh, okay, effectively, that is fairly superior. So I’m certain you skilled that with the, within the thyroid area.
Katie: Completely. Each with that after which I feel doing lots of inside work and getting myself out of a state of stress on a regular basis, I didn’t even understand how chronically I had felt all these issues till they went away. And it was drastic. And I do know I bear in mind feeling just like the energizer bunny at first when that first shifted as a result of I simply had all this vitality I hadn’t had earlier than. I do know additionally in your work and your protocol, you additionally contact on the detox facet. And I really feel like not lots of fertility docs are addressing this and I like that you simply do. Are you able to clarify the cleansing reference to fertility and the way you do this along with your sufferers?
Nashat: Yeah, nice query. So sadly, we reside in an industrialized world and we’re uncovered to toxins 24/7. And simply the act of getting up and preparing for work within the morning in our own residence exposes most of us to over 200 toxins of which greater than half are personagenic. So fairly scary. There’s lots of issues that we will do in our houses to make them much less poisonous, however the actuality is that we will’t additionally reside in a bubble. I undoubtedly, I don’t suppose that’s sensible. I don’t suppose it’s sustainable. I don’t reside in a bubble, however I do adhere to the worth of doing, as an illustration, a quarterly detox.
And so I really created my first detox program again in 2020 throughout the pandemic. I discovered that individuals had been beneath an amazing quantity of stress they usually had been actually trying to optimize their well being and caught in their very own houses. And so I created a four-week detox program that I took individuals by way of. And inside the first yr of getting my program, I put over 500 individuals by way of it. And it was superb the transformation that was skilled. And this was a variety of individuals as a result of toxins are saved in fats. And so as soon as we’re in a position to flush out toxins, one, there’s lots of issues that change. Our energies shift. I had one lady inform me her eyesight bought higher. I had some ladies who had been going by way of menopause and hormonal modifications that mentioned that that bought considerably higher as a result of they had been really in a position to detoxify estrogen.
So detox is admittedly vital in the case of basic well being. And in the case of fertility, there are lots of toxins that we’re uncovered to which are really xenoestrogens. And they also mimic hormones and type of wreak havoc within the physique. So detoxifying your estrogen appropriately is such a essential a part of a fertility and general well being journey, particularly in my ladies who’re struggling with PCOS or endometriosis. They’re going to be in an estrogen dominant state they usually have to have the ability to steadiness out their hormones and having correctly working detox organs is admittedly essential.
I do suppose it’s actually vital to speak about the truth that detox is type of slightly little bit of a controversial time period on the market. And I feel after I discuss detox, I’m speaking about a complete meals detox. I’m not speaking about juice cleanses. I’m not speaking about simply dietary supplements and consuming water. I’m not speaking about ravenous. I’m speaking about consuming a nutrient dense meals that’s balanced and colourful and thoughtfully sourced protein. I’m speaking a few detox the place we really nourish the physique’s cleansing techniques naturally.
So as an illustration, our liver has two phases of cleansing. And so to help Part 1 of our liver detox, we wish to nourish the physique with numerous nutritional vitamins, minerals and vitamins. For Part 2, we want a distribution of amino acids to help that. And basically what we’re doing after we’re type of revving up the liver, I all the time say the liver is your laundromat, we’re taking like fats soluble toxins, we’re turning them into water soluble toxins in order that our physique can then eliminate them by way of our breath, sweat, defecation and urination. And so by doing that, we’re type of cleaning the physique of disruptors that could be wreaking havoc and negatively impacting our fertility. And we do it in a really mild manner. That’s one other factor persons are all the time questioning am I going to be within the toilet all day? I’m like, no, completely not. You aren’t. It’s very, very mild. Actually, most of my {couples} and shoppers don’t even know that they’re doing it.
Katie: That’s such an vital distinction. I all the time attempt to bear in mind like detox isn’t a factor to your, you do to your physique. Detox is a factor that your physique does naturally which you can help and make it extra environment friendly at, however it’s already is aware of how to try this. So I’m glad that you simply made that distinction and that if this isn’t like actually harsh cleanses or taking… Know, issues which are going to flush your physique and deplete you of issues. That is really simply supporting what the physique already is aware of learn how to do in its knowledge and assist it to do it extra effectively or assist to type of like unkink if one thing’s already blocked in you, however your physique already has that knowledge.
You additionally touched on, you talked about PCOS and endometriosis, and I do know these had been two classes I used to be going to ask particularly about as a result of it looks as if ladies in these classes are sometimes given type of grim information associated to their fertility or that there can not less than be fertility issues that come together with the prognosis in both these situations. However I’m guessing from what you mentioned that these are literally typically resolvable as effectively and infrequently with out excessive measures. However is there a distinction in how you’re employed with ladies who’ve PCOS or endometriosis or totally different issues to pay attention to for girls who do have these?
Nashat: So sure and no. No in a way that each one that comes into my world is handled as a singular particular person. So PCOS, endometriosis, you realize, regardless of the circumstance is, you realize, I see each single one that comes into my world is exclusive as a result of I form of consider all of the physique techniques that we’re tackling for fertility as a cobweb. And so if we pull on one factor, the whole lot else goes to shift. The excellent news for girls with PCOS, which is type of fascinating, I really had a dialogue with any individual the opposite day about this, is that lots of instances with PCOS, ladies aren’t ovulating each single month. And so one of many form of unknown advantages or typically perks is that as a result of they’re not ovulating, a lot all through their life. They are often older in age and nonetheless ovulate and conceive naturally, as a result of their AMH is usually slightly bit larger. Actually, I’ve a lady who I simply spoke with final week who’s 44 and has an AMH of two.4. Now, clearly AMH may also be typically falsely elevated, however nonetheless for probably the most half, since you’re not ovulating as a lot. You realize, and never, and possibly not each cycle, you might have a bigger egg reserve than you even understand that you’ve. So I really feel like that provides lots of ladies hope with PCOS.
And there’s lots of issues, like I mentioned, that we will do to detoxify estrogen and steadiness hormones naturally. That we will get the physique into the proper rhythm. One of many different instruments that I forgot to say that I might use fairly intimately in my therapy protocols is I take a look at temperature monitoring as a result of basal physique temperature monitoring over the course of a lady’s cycle provides us lots of perception.
And I all the time, I’m an ER physician, proper? So I’ve spent my profession studying lots of EKGs’ and I type of say that the BBT chart is type of just like the EKG of fertility within the sense that it’s the window into what the physique is doing. I can inform if the follicular and luteal phases are too brief, too lengthy, in the event that they’re ovulating on the proper time, we will additionally see intestine points manifest on a temperature chart. We are able to see thyroid points manifest and on and on. When {couples} come to me, they’re like, effectively, are we going to trace labs each single month? And I’m like, no, not essentially. We might need to repeat labs in a sure time frame. However so far as what I’m doing on a weekly foundation to maintain monitor, to ensure we’re going the proper manner is I’m monitoring your signs and I’m monitoring your temperatures. And that provides us a wealth of data.
Katie: I’m so glad you introduced that up. So I’ve been performing some type of pure household planning for nearly 20 years now. And so I’ve tracked my basal physique temperature over lots of years. And I’ve undoubtedly seen after I was within the thyroid points part, I had a a lot decrease basal physique temperature and now it stays a lot larger, which I view as an excellent signal as a result of it means hopefully my metabolism is working significantly better. My sleep is actually improved.
Is it very particular individual by individual? I do know that I see, as an illustration, decrease temperatures after which temperature rise within the second half of my cycle very reliably. However inside that sample, are there supreme ranges of temperature or does that modify by individual to individual? So as an illustration, on this a part of my cycle, my basal physique temperature is like 98.2. Is there like a goal we’re aiming for good temperatures in numerous factors of the cycle or is it relative to the person?
Nashat: It’s relative to the person. I actually take a look at the sample. The sample is crucial factor. So estrogen tends to be a really cooling hormone. So we’re in search of low regular temperatures within the first half of the cycle. We’re in search of a spike after you might have your LH surge in the midst of your cycle. After which progesterone is a really warming hormone.
So we’re in search of a lovely heat curve in direction of the latter half of the cycle. I do discover that you’re going to have actually rock and roll in cycles when you do have intestine well being points, when you’re beneath lots of stress. I’ve seen some fairly massive alterations when it comes to if any individual is touring and perhaps going between time zones. And right here’s the humorous factor, I can even inform when any individual is dishonest on their food regimen as a result of their BBT charts held me. So I can inform instantly in the event that they’ve been actually good and perhaps they’ve a cheat week and consuming lots of inflammatory meals as a result of your physique reacts to the whole lot that you simply do. You type of can’t cover from it.
Katie: That’s so fascinating. And I’ve been excited to see extra instruments obtainable just lately that assist this knowledge be extra accessible to all of us. Like I do know early on for me, it was like particular thermometers having to make an precise bodily paper chart. And now apps can achieve this a lot of this for us. And if I make it simpler in your facet as effectively, as a result of you’ll be able to entry that knowledge in actual time along with your sufferers. However undoubtedly on a private stage, I might encourage ladies to trace that as a result of it’s really easy now. And it’s such fascinating perception into your well being on a month-to-month foundation. So I’m very excited that that knowledge is now obtainable.

What about {couples} who perhaps have been informed that they’ve already been by way of IVF or IUI and form of been informed they’re a misplaced trigger? Do you’re employed with {couples} like that? And do you discover that that’s not all the time the case, even when conventional medication has given up on them?
Nashat: Nice query and completely. I don’t care if anybody’s… IUI or IVF as a result of we haven’t actually uncovered the basis reason behind why it hasn’t labored. And truly, I’ll inform you a humorous, an important story. And that could be a couple that got here into my world. And she or he, we really assist lots of healthcare suppliers as a result of, you realize, they discover me relatable as a result of I’m a historically skilled board licensed doctor. And so I’ve lots of physicians that we really help combating infertility.
And so this doctor occurs to be an endocrinologist, the irony of it, proper? However she grasp’s hormones, like that’s what she does for a dwelling. And so she got here to me and her husband is a doctor too, he was an inside medication physician they usually had failed seven rounds of IUI. After which they went on they usually did three rounds of IVF. And as an endocrinologist, she knew precisely what was taking place on clearly a way more intimate stage than the standard lay individual and sadly ended up getting overstimulated and bought actually, actually sick from all the hormones. So that they had been making an attempt for years, failed all of these rounds, had clearly spent an exorbitant amount of cash after which they discovered me they usually mentioned, effectively, what are you able to do for us as a result of we’re undoubtedly not going again to IUI or IVF. We wish is to develop a household. And I used to be like, effectively, let’s see what we will do.
And after I work with {couples}, one of many first issues I requested them to do is within the pre-conception interval, we’ve already, you realize, outlined as 90 to 120 days. And I feel 12 weeks, it’s type of like that comfortable place. So I all the time say for the 12 weeks that we’re working collectively, I need us to only take away, you realize, actively making an attempt from the forefront of our minds and simply deal with our well being, deal with our relationship with our beloved one, deal with bonding, you realize, deal with into me, intimacy, since you wish to be intimate and never since you’re making an attempt to create a child and create a life.
And so I had informed this you realize what, I would like you to take a break for 12 weeks. So that you open to that. They mentioned, completely. They got here they usually labored with us. And we bought an e-mail eight weeks into them working with us, apologizing as a result of they had been pregnant. And it was probably the most heartwarming factor as a result of they had been like, we promised we weren’t making an attempt. However the backside line is right here is that this couple endocrinologist, internist, extremely educated board licensed physicians failed seven rounds of IUI, three failed rounds of IVF, after which get pregnant naturally in eight weeks. And it was not a coincidence is what I’m making an attempt to say.
It’s as a result of we had been really in a position to dial again. You realize, take a step again, take a chicken’s eye view of the whole physique, not simply our hormones and our fertility organs, determine the basis trigger after which heal the basis trigger from the muse up to ensure that them to have the ability to conceive naturally. And that’s one thing that I see time and time once more with the {couples} that I work with, is that even when the whole lot else has failed, there really continues to be an opportunity of pure fertility. We simply have to do the proper issues in the proper order based mostly on what their physique and biochemistry wants.
Katie: And that’s superb how rapidly too, that actually speaks to only how quickly the physique is ready to transfer again to a state of homeostasis. I’m certain even simply taking that stress out for eight weeks was in all probability large for them.
And also you touched on one thing else that I used to be going to ask, which is… That she type of reached a fatigue level with the hormones and the whole lot required for all of these cycles. And I’m wondering, is there a threat to these form of synthetic hormones being utilized in massive doses throughout all these rounds of IUI or IVF?
Nashat: Yeah, sadly, sure, I might say that, you realize, they are often linked to numerous persistent well being situations. You realize, there are many hormone imbalances that may ensue afterwards. I can’t inform you what number of ladies have come to me after having gone by way of all these hormones and saying, you realize, my physique is destroyed. Now I’ve horrible sleep. I’ve gained, you realize, 30 kilos. I’ve lots of mind fog. You realize, my muscle mass has been depleted as a result of what they’re doing is that they’re actually, like I say in my free masterclass on-line, that, you realize, the standard strategy is mainly forcing being pregnant on a physique that’s. Screaming I’m prepared.
And, you realize, and so it’s simply, it’s unhappy as a result of it clearly does have lots of unintended effects. And naturally, you realize, there may be, you realize, there are, there may be some knowledge on the market to point that it might probably enhance threat of sure varieties of most cancers. It clearly actually relies on what the person routine is, you realize, within the conventional strategy, there are such a lot of totally different regimens that may be given to a lady in numerous levels of stimulation. So I wouldn’t really feel snug making a blanket assertion, however I can say universally that it’s not a nice expertise. I went by way of it myself and I used to be very conservative with my doses precisely for that cause. However I nonetheless felt horrible within the course of.
And, you realize, and I actually… My coronary heart breaks when I’ve {couples} which have come to me in that state of exhaustion after having gone by way of all of that. After which they arrive to me after which after the very fact, they are saying, why didn’t we discover you sooner? You realize, I want we had finished this primary. Now, I do wish to say that there’s a place for IUI and IVF, and it’s not that I’m not a believer in it. I simply consider in uncovering the basis trigger and therapeutic the physique from the within out, optimizing well being. And actually exhausting all of our pure routes earlier than we flip to that, as a result of the truth is that. If we put together the physique and lay the muse earlier than we do IUI and IVF, we’re really going to have a lot larger success charges of the process themselves.
You realize, one of many issues additionally that I discover is slightly bit deceptive is when a fertility clinic quotes a hit price, it’s over six rounds of IVF, not one. I don’t learn about you, however I don’t know any lady who needs to undergo six rounds of IVF. I don’t know anybody, any lady who’s been in a position to maintain that. I type of see individuals tapping out. I feel probably the most I’ve had is perhaps 4 or 5, however no person needs to undergo six cycles. It’s not sustainable.
Katie: Yeah. Effectively, that makes full sense too, that even when somebody does find yourself going the IVF route, that addressing all of these items would enhance the probability of a optimistic consequence there as effectively. It’s like I typically discuss in different areas of basic wellness, it’s like when you dial within the foundational issues, the sleep, the morning daylight, the hydration and food regimen, simply mild motion, all these issues, the rest you do this is likely to be extra biohacking or extra sophisticated or dietary supplements that price cash, these are all going to be simpler when you get these foundational items in line first. And it makes whole sense to me that that may even be the case within the fertility area as effectively.
And I might guess for lots of people listening, perhaps they’re someplace on the spectrum of this or aren’t even making an attempt to get pregnant proper now, however it is likely to be a consideration for the longer term. Are there any form of good basic ideas at both totally different ages or simply usually good ideas to take care of our fertility so long as potential? After which additionally simply to maintain our hormones wholesome as we become older with fertility being linked to well being in so many different methods past simply having a child. Are there any good basic tips for all of us to bear in mind?
Nashat: Yeah, completely. So I’ve a free obtain, which is the ten steps to optimum well being, which I actually suppose is type of a baseline basis for anyone making an attempt to optimize their well being, actually at any age, and actually getting ready for preconception. And a few of these ideas are issues that you simply’ve already touched on.
Sleep might be some of the underrated well being advocacy actions that anyone might take. And so I’m a agency believer in eight to 9 hours. And the factor is, we don’t simply need amount. We wish high quality of sleep. So I put on this little factor, an Oura ring, as a result of it helps me monitor. You bought one, too. It helps me monitor my sleep phases. And I do know actually in actual time whether or not I’m getting prime quality sleep or not. And typically it tells me after I’ve woken up in the midst of the evening, and I don’t even do not forget that I’ve woken up and had damaged sleep. So sleep is admittedly vital.
Hydration is one thing else that’s actually underrated. I all the time say you actually wish to take half your physique weight in kilos, and that’s what number of ounces that it’s best to drink over the course of the day. And if you’re consuming caffeine or exercising, then you definately undoubtedly wish to discuss slightly bit extra onto that. I personally drink about three liters a day to remain hydrated.
Daylight is one thing you talked about that’s enormous. Getting simply good previous daylight and having your ft on the bottom, grounding is admittedly vital. Daylight, often simply quarter-hour a day, particularly within the morning if you are able to do it. It actually does assist set the stage on your circadian rhythm and likewise enhance the standard of your sleep. What else?
Meals is admittedly, actually vital. Sadly, the nutrient density of our meals has plummeted as a result of most of us don’t eat seasonally anymore. So I all the time say, when you can attempt to eat seasonally and the way do you do this simply? Go to a farmer’s market. That’s in all probability the best solution to eat seasonally is as a result of when you go to a farmer’s market, more often than not what they’ve goes to be solely the stuff that’s in season. I additionally say whenever you’re buying, keep on with the perimeter of the grocery retailer. That’s the place you’re going to search out all of your perishables and your lean proteins.
And in addition, supply your protein thoughtfully. So issues like you realize, grass fed beef, you realize, hormone free and antibiotic free natural rooster ideally free vary, you realize, all these varieties of issues are going to contribute to you nourishing your physique with extra nutrient-dense meals. As a result of I’m additionally a agency believer, sure, we want dietary supplements. I do use dietary supplements routinely with my {couples} so as to pace up the therapeutic course of. However it’s not for me, dietary supplements aren’t endlessly. You realize, in a super world, we actually wish to use a meals first strategy. And I do this with lots of my {couples}. So ladies who, as an illustration, have low progesterone and rather a lot or half of a cycle, are actually going to attempt to help them with progesterone-forming meals and so forth. Relatively than, you realize, turning to, as an illustration, a prescription or including one other complement. I imply, if we’ve to do it, we’ll, in fact, as a result of we wish to get them, most {couples} who come to me are very anxious to start out, you realize, making an attempt to get pregnant. So we wish to make the therapeutic course of as fast as potential.
However I feel in anyone who’s not actively in that part, and, you realize, you actually wish to set your self up for optimum well being, i believe simply doing among the tenets motion is clearly a extremely vital one too. Ensuring you’re getting your steps in each day and ensuring you’re getting a mixture of energy coaching and, you realize, cardio train. I feel muscle energy might be some of the underrated issues too, as we become older. The quantity of muscle mass that you’ve actually units the stage on your metabolism and vibrancy and longevity. So I feel muscle density and muscle energy is admittedly vital too. So these are just some. I feel I’ve extra on my free obtain that our listeners can undoubtedly entry.
Katie: I’ll make sure that these hyperlinks are included within the present notes and undoubtedly echo what you say, particularly about muscle and that the information on that’s actually compelling and we all know that that improves lots of outcomes as we become older, not simply fertility, however even our threat of all-cause mortality and threat of harm, all of these issues are correlated with having sufficient muscle and we do lose some naturally as we age. So I really feel like that as a spotlight, particularly for girls, is such an important factor to deal with.
And I might love to only dispel slightly extra of the parable as effectively as a result of i do know after I was having infants, I had all of mine by 29, however I bear in mind ladies being there similtaneously me and anyone over 35 was informed they had been superior to maternal age. And I do know ladies are informed fertility declines and it’s very exhausting to get pregnant after 35. I might love to listen to your expertise with that and when you’ve seen {couples} be capable to get pregnant naturally after age 35 and as much as what age is that probably potential?
Nashat: So I get that query rather a lot and I by no means wish to put an age on it as a result of it simply relies on your biochemistry. I imply, I’ve a lady who I talked to the opposite day who’s 44 and has an AMH of like 2.5 as a result of she’s had PCOS. She has common cycles. She has zero indicators on her labs and her signs of being perimenopausal. And so she’s any individual that I informed, you realize what, I can get you pregnant naturally. Completely.
So I had all my children after the age of 35. I went by way of unnecessarily, you realize, invasive therapies so as to have my children as a result of I didn’t know then what I do know now. However I don’t actually see 35 as a deterrent. That I work with, the ladies that I work with, are over the age of 35. I do get some which are youthful, however for probably the most half they… Over the age of 35 and I all the time inform them, you realize, age is only a quantity. You realize, there’s a lot that we will do. You realize, I’m very clear. I do consider in that too. So after I do my discovery calls with my {couples}, I’m all the time very upfront and I inform them, you realize, if I don’t suppose I may help you, I’m going to be the primary to inform you what the probabilities are. And I’m going to provide you my, you realize, finest skilled recommendation as to, you realize, probably the most logical and finest subsequent step.
However, you realize, I’ve additionally been very pleasantly shocked. There have been {couples} the place I believed, you realize, this may increasingly not work they usually’ve ended up getting pregnant naturally. So I type of say the sky’s the restrict. I imply, clearly if any individual is having irregular cycles and having menopausal signs, you realize, these are, that’s when for me, it’s extra the signs which are going to drive that quantity quite than the precise age itself. I imply, we all know that clearly it turns into harder. I imply, the statistics make that very clear, however I don’t suppose it’s simply age. I feel it’s multifactorial is the underside line.
Katie: That is smart. And I do know you might have so many extra sources obtainable in your web site and then you definately work straight with {couples} as effectively. I’ll make sure that all of these hyperlinks are within the present notes so individuals that may discover you and work with you straight. However I like that you simply’re spreading this message of the physique’s means to heal and transfer again to a state of fertility, even when individuals have been informed by conventional medication that they aren’t going to have the ability to have a child. And I like the work that you simply’re doing and the way purpose-driven it’s for you and the way your journey has been. So I’ll make sure that these hyperlinks are included within the present notes. And a few questions I like to ask on the finish of interviews. The primary being if there’s a e-book or variety of books which have had a profound influence on you personally and in that case, what they’re and why.
Nashat: Gosh, I’ve so many to record, however I’m going to select the latest one. And the latest one is a Joe Dispenza e-book, which is Breaking the Behavior of Being Your self. What was actually fascinating about that e-book is that it actually impressed me to attend a deep self-development retreat again in March, which was all about actually figuring out conduct patterns in childhood and determining how they’re manifesting in my grownup life. And never simply understanding the conduct patterns, however really studying to rewire my mind into a brand new manner of being. And I really feel like that idea is so essential to every of our respective well being journeys, whether or not we’re making an attempt to get pregnant, whether or not we’re making an attempt to steadiness our hormones, whether or not we’re making an attempt to only grow to be the healthiest model of ourselves, no matter our private well being targets is, as a result of new habits are actually, actually exhausting to kind. And lots of us have been caught on this vicious cycle and a rut as a result of life is busy and life is consuming.
And having the instruments and the information to have the ability to rewire your mind and type of create a brand new model of your self has been actually, actually highly effective for me previously six months or so. And I’ve been in a position to actually apply that to the supply of my care to my {couples} and my sufferers, as a result of all of us, so as to optimize well being, are going to be required to make quite a lot of way of life modifications that may really feel like we’re going slightly bit towards the grain. In order that’s in all probability one in every of my favorites proper now.
Katie: I like that. I’ll put that hyperlink within the present notes as effectively. And lastly, any parting recommendation for the listeners immediately that may very well be associated to the whole lot we’ve talked about or totally unrelated recommendation that you simply discover useful.
Nashat: Yeah, I simply say don’t lose hope. And, you realize, I don’t subscribe to the idea that as we become older, you realize, we begin to really feel extra drained, we begin to get fatter, we begin to have poorer sleep. I don’t subscribe to any of that. And that is alluding to what you mentioned earlier, Katie, I do consider that you’re the CEO of your individual well being.
And I do really feel like it’s important that every one in every of us are all the time striving to optimize our well being and actually additionally perceive the “why”. I don’t consider in band-aid approaches. I don’t consider simply in doing what your physician says. I consider in actually understanding why you’re doing what you’re doing with the intention to make an intentional knowledgeable selection with the intention to reside an extended, vibrant life. And all the {couples} on the market struggling to get pregnant, there may be hope. And simply because any individual has informed you which you can’t get pregnant or that you simply want a donor egg or that is by no means going to occur for you, I say comply with your intestine. I all the time ask my {couples}, like, do you’re feeling like in your intestine you will get pregnant naturally? And 9 instances out of 10 of individuals speaking to me say sure, however I’ve been informed in any other case. And my recommendation is belief your intestine.
Katie: I like that. I feel that’s an ideal place to wrap up for immediately. This has been such a enjoyable dialog. Like I mentioned, I like the work you’re doing and I’m so glad we lastly bought to speak. Thanks a lot on your time and for being right here.
