53 years ago today.

I am taking a pause to reflect on the Riots which sparked the beginning of the Gay liberation Movement.

History is a great teacher so check out the link above 👆 for information about Stonewall.

A reminder that we are here to help people build families now and for the future and there are many ways to do that.

My mother and sister both have birthdays on June 24th.

They, among others in my orbit growing up, shaped my views on reproductive health and agency. I will share more thoughts in another post to follow.

❤️To the men and women of reproductive age (s***m or eggs) who will struggle with
and
To the patients out there pursuing family building:

❤️Your journey remains uninterrupted by this decision. Your ability to pursue fertility treatments, be it, IUI, IVF, PGT, embryo disposition decisions, etc has not changed...

With this decision, though, States now have more freedom to regulate reproductive healthcare.

Some states will be restrictive while others will be more patient centered.

I share the concern that this decision might lead to future legislative efforts in some states, including my home state of Missouri, to curtail access to contraception, rights and even assisted reproductive technology.

Please know that I remain as active as ever, both nationally and locally, to make sure access to all avenues of Reproductive health including fertility care, remain intact.

More to come.

on and any impact a weakening of it might have on the and as we await the Dobbs decision...maybe 4th of July Weekend but who knows🤷🙄

In the spirit of education ( video in the future perhaps👊), below is my understanding of the situation speaking as a private citizen who happens to be a born, raised, trained and practicing in 😉

DISCLOSURE: The views below are mine alone and do not represent my employer(s).

Fertility care in Missouri *may* be threatened should Roe be overturned or weakened. It depends on the language in any current and future bills. Day to day operations probably won't change immediately as legal maneuvers and minds navigate the language to understand risk.

👆link above from a expert legal mind familiar with Missouri’s current statutes. (No Coi)

Domino 1️⃣ If is overturned/weakened, then states decide how certain reproductive services like abortion are regulated and some states including Missouri have “trigger laws” in place to ban abortion outright.

Domino 2️⃣ Trigger law goes into effect banning abortion at all gestational ages. The State AG has already publicly said he would issue an opinion to activate the ban.

Domino 3️⃣ The Missouri trigger amendment is in an enacted 2019 bill that bans abortion after 8 weeks. That bill remains unenforceable as it is in appeal in the 8th circuit court of appeals. Look for action on this appeal once Dobbs decision is released.

Domino 4️⃣ The bill itself defines abortion as destruction of an embryo or fetus *in the womb* and defines the various stages of an embryo. This language is critical as it relates to embryo disposition in .

🃏 In 2016, the Missouri Supreme court, in a case regarding the disposition of embryos during a divorce, ruled that embryos are not people. They are property of special designation.

Clinics will be examining the language in the SCOTUS ruling and these bills to determine what if any risks exist for fertility and miscarriage services. Until then we remain guarded.

Okay , new video on protocols.

📋There is a lot of variation in how these protocols work but generally they include a combination of both oral medication ( or and varying doses of injectable medications like gonal f, follistim, or menopur

📋They can be used in a variety of situations across all diagnoses.

📋These protocols *can* be associated with lower medication costs.

New video on protocols:
Luteal priming

In some patients the use of high dose estrogen can be used to synchronize response and or optimize communication between brain and o***y to prime the ovaries better for stim.
