if you’ve been “doing all the things” and still feel stuck, it’s time for a strategy.

Some magnesium and zinc won’t cut it when TTC with endo you need a proper plan, one that aligns with the science and your exact blood markers.

Comment MAP for a consult 🫶🏼

Endometriosis causes infertility even when cycles look normal, tubes and open and ovulation is happening.

It’s a condition of
• inflammation
• immune dysfunction
• hormonal resistance
• oxidative stress
• poor implantation environment

Which is why fertility support for endometriosis must go beyond timing s*x or suppressing hormones. Before you go and blow 20K on your next IVF or IUI cycle, make the time to do some prep work. My work is deeply rooted in science to improve your outcomes and improve your chances of falling pregnant.

I’ve helped thousands of pregnant clients just like you, get their miracle baby 🫶🏼

If you’ve ever felt dismissed because your numbers were “within range,” this is your reminder: Hashimoto’s is often an immune + inflammation story, not just a thyroid story. And taking thyroid meds whilst helpful to lower a TSH level to reduce goitre risk, the medication won’t help to lower thyroid antibodies which drives an array from symptoms from brain fog to depression to hair loss

when fertility is impacted alongside suspected endo, I’m not just looking at “are you ovulating?”

I’m looking at the environment:
• inflammation levels
• thyroid + immune markers
• insulin/blood sugar stability
• nutrient reserves (especially if bleeding is heavy)
• gut drivers that keep inflammation switched on

Because you can ovulate but have issues implanting. Your uterine environment is everything when it comes to endo and fertility.

A test I recommend is a uterine menstrual blood microbiome test. It’s very new and emerging research. The clients that I have seen who have done this test and implemented a strategy to clear infections have had big improvements in fertility outcomes alongside doing all the other things noted above.

There is a company doing this called Screen Me in the UK. It’s pricey but a steal if you consider how expensive IVF is. If you’re in Australia you can order this test and send the sample over to UK for analysis

Here’s the part most people miss.
This flare followed a CT earlier in the year that used iodine-based contrast. In someone predisposed to Graves, that iodine hit can act like petrol on a fire.

Then we did what actually works:
we tested deeper, including gut testing.
We found a parasite on stool testing.
We reduced immune load and inflammation using targeted diet, lifestyle, and gut work, and monitored the thyroid markers properly over time.

This is not me saying medication is never needed. I work alongside women taking thyroid meds everyday and often say “I think you need meds whilst we do the deeper work”

And if you thought thyroid antibodies couldn’t resolve or lower, well I hope this is proof they can 🧡

If you’re wanting a roadmap to get your thyroid back on track then make a time to see me. Comment BOOK and I’ll send you the link.

If your hormone education is coming from a cycle tracking app… we need to talk. 🙃

Your app can guess:
✔️ when your period might arrive
✔️ when it thinks you ovulated

But it can’t tell you WHY you:
• feel anxious before your period
• crash mid-cycle
• get heavy/clotty bleeds
• wake at 3am staring at the ceiling
• feel puffy/inflamed like a human water balloon

Because symptoms aren’t random.
They’re usually phase-specific clues.

Tracking gives you data.
Tracking + timing (and the right blood tests) gives you answers.

So here’s what I want you to do for ONE cycle:
Track these 5 things:
1. sleep
2. cravings
3. mood
4. bowels (yep — constipation is a hormone clue)
5. spotting/bleeding timing

And then look for the pattern:
If it shows up in the same phase every month… it’s not “you being dramatic.”
It’s biology.

Comment TRACK and I’ll send you the exact checklist I use with clients to pinpoint what to test + when

It’s not just a “missed period.”
It’s your body waving a very big hormonal flag saying something’s off.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
No, it’s not normal.
And no, it’s not “lucky.”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Because no period = no ovulation = no progesterone — the hormone that keeps your mood, bones, metabolism and fertility on track.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So what’s actually going on when your hormones go MIA? 👇
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🧠 If it’s Hypothalamic Amenorrhoea (HA):
You’ll often see low FSH, low LH, low DHEA, low testosterone and high cortisol.
Think: overexercising, under-eating, or chronic stress telling your brain to hit pause. Particularly with previous ED you can continue to see chronic suppression years after the fact.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💪 If it’s PCOS:
Expect high LH, high DHEA, high testosterone and high cortisol.
Your brain’s shouting “ovulate!” but the ovaries are stuck
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If it’s High Prolactin:
You’ll see elevated prolactin on a blood test — this can suppress ovulation and stop periods completely.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🧪 And if you’re not getting a period — get tested.
You don’t need to wait for a “day 21” or “day 3.”
If you’re not cycling, any day is a good day to start investigating.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your period isn’t just a monthly event — it’s a monthly report card for your hormones.
And if it’s missing, it’s time to find out why.

Thinking about getting pregnant? 💫

Your prenatal is not the plan it’s the bare minimum…..

Sure, a good prenatal lays the foundation, but if you really want to optimise your fertility, it’s time to get strategic with your bloods.

🩸 Here’s what I recommend testing pre-pregnancy:
• FBC
• eLFTs
• Vitamin B12 — Ideal >500
• Folate — Ideal >45
• Iron Studies (Iron, Ferritin, Saturation, Transferrin)
• Vitamin D — Ideal 75–120
• TSH — Ideal 1–2
• Thyroid Antibodies
• FSH, LH, Oestrogen, Progesterone
• Cortisol, DHEA, Testosterone, SHBG
• Insulin — Ideal 4–8
• HbA1c — Ideal
