In this episode of Ask The Egg Whisperer, I answered your fertility questions live! These Q&A sessions are truly one of the highlights of my week. I love connecting with you directly and offering personalized insights to help you better understand your fertility and take the next best step forward. Whether you’re just getting started, in the middle of IVF, or thinking ahead to embryo transfer, I’m here to support you with answers grounded in science and compassion. In this episode, we cover:

• Whether it’s safe to take NAD while pregnant or breastfeeding
• How long it’s safe to be on Letrozole, especially with conditions like endometriosis, Hashimoto’s, and Lyme disease
• If you should delay embryo transfer to focus on improving your health first
• Whether Day 3 labs are still necessary when using Letrozole
