This episode is all about how to survive your HSG. Otherwise known as a hysterosalpingogram. That's a big scary word so let's break it down!

Hystero = uterus
Salpingo = tube
Gram = picture of

Hysterosalpingogram (HSG) is basically a picture of your fallopian tubes.

I like to think of the fallopian tube as the embryo transport system. It's where the egg and sperm come together and it's how the embryo will travel to the uterus. Part of fertility screening is not just for FSH, estradiol, and AMH for women. It's not just to see how fast the swimmers are swimming. It's also important to make sure that the fallopian tubes are open! It's the "T" in the tushymethod.com

In today's episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I'm talking more about HSG.

Wondering how hormone health, environmental toxins, and ovulation timing affect your chances of getting pregnant? In this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, we explore the real-life challenges of unexplained infertility, secondary infertility, preconception testing, and the simple mistakes that can make it harder to conceive, along with practical, evidence-based advice you can use right away (like The TUSHY Method).

I'm joined by Sara Jensen, co-founder and Co-CEO of Hugh &Grace @hughgrace5494 for an honest conversation about fertility, hormones, and hope. Sara opens up about her 14-year journey with unexplained infertility and how her sister and sister-in-law stepped in as surrogates. We also dig into hormone-disrupting chemicals, at-home fertility kits, and the ovulation timing mistakes I see couples make all the time. Whether you're just starting to think about your fertility or you're deep in the trenches of trying to conceive, this episode is packed with practical advice you can use today.

In this episode, we cover:
- The "TUSHY check" - the essential pre-pregnancy tests every couple should do
- Why you can't judge your fertility "by a selfie" and what actually needs to be checked
- Secondary infertility and the golden rule for couples who want more than one child
- How everyday products and hormone creams can quietly disrupt your hormones and impact your fertility
- Whether egg detoxes and ovarian cleanses are worth it
- At-home fertility kits and ovulation predictor apps: what's accurate and what's not
- The ovulation timing mistake that causes couples to miss their fertile window

"Dr. Aimee, how soon will I be able to get pregnant?"

This is the most common question I get from my patients. I get it. By the time you come to see me you've been preparing for pregnancy for a year, three, sometimes longer. I appreciate how emotional and tiring it can be to have a dream to start a family and encounter roadblocks to making it a reality. It's one of the reasons I do what I do as I love helping people create the family of their dreams.

Getting pregnant isn't easy for a lot of people. In this episode, Dr. Aimee shares her approach to IVF, and how to use science to get pregnant. Learn about the TUSHY Method, and the Fertility Diet, and how to build your own mind body team in this episode.
