    Ep.232: The Real Reason US Fertility Policy Fails WITH Leonard Lopoo

I sit down with Leonard Lopoo, a policy researcher and author of “Wanting Children”, to unpack how US family planning policy was built, who it was designed to help, and who it's always left out. We get into the history he uncovered in his research, including Nixon-era recordings revealing the eugenics-adjacent thinking behind some of these programs, why most states still don't mandate insurance coverage for infertility treatment, and how countries like France, Poland, and Estonia support families very differently. Len also shares his central argument for what should actually determine policy: not income, but whether someone genuinely wants to become a parent.In this episode, you’ll learn:US "family planning" policy means contraception, not fertility support, not even ovulation medicationsMany federal programs began in the 1970s under a health equity banner, but archival research reveals more complex motivesMost states don't mandate infertility insurance coverage, and where it exists, it's often gated behind years of tryingMedicaid excludes ovulation-stimulating medications, and newer programs like TrumpRx exclude Medicaid recipients entirelyFrance, Poland, and Estonia offer far more generous fertility support, some funding up to six IVF cyclesLen argues policy should prioritize "wantedness," not income, since that's what actually predicts better outcomes for childrenAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

Rather than approaching declining birth rates solely from a medical or cultural lens, he helps audiences understand how factors like housing affordability, childcare costs, economic insecurity, healthcare access, and workplace pressures increasingly influence whether and when people feel able to start families. His research-driven perspective adds important context to today’s conversations around fertility and reproductive choices, helping listeners connect personal experiences to broader systemic trends in a thoughtful, accessible way.Connect With My Guest:Website: https://www.maxwell.syr.edu/directory/leonard-m-lopooLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leonard-lopoo-8184582a5/

I walk you through exactly what to test the moment you get a positive result, hCG and progesterone, not just one or the other, and why waiting until your first ultrasound to know if things are okay isn't good enough. You'll learn what I test for in each trimester, from methylation and thyroid function to bile acids and cervical length, why easy conception doesn't mean an easy pregnancy, and two real patient stories where catching something early through testing made all the difference.In this episode, you’ll learn:hCG alone doesn't tell you enough; pairing it with progesterone gives a fuller picture of the pregnancyConventional standards accept progesterone above 10, but levels above 20 offer better supportDon't stop progesterone when a trimester ends; wait until testing confirms the placenta has taken overStruggled to conceive? Underlying issues can resurface during pregnancy, so more monitoring helps, not lessNo symptoms doesn't mean no risk; some complications only show up through testingCatching problems early through regular testing helps prevent emergencies later in pregnancyAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

I walk you through exactly what to eat and what to avoid during this window, why warmth and blood flow matter for implantation, and how sleep, movement, and stress directly affect your progesterone levels. You'll also learn why early pregnancy symptoms and PMS symptoms are so hard to tell apart, and why I recommend giving your body just three to four cycles before shifting from optimizing naturally to actually getting tested.In this episode, you’ll learn:Implantation happens 5 days post-ovulation, so you can be pregnant a week before any test confirms itEarly pregnancy and PMS symptoms feel nearly identical, especially without close cycle trackingWarm, easy-to-digest foods support uterine blood flow, since digestion and reproduction share the same cavityStress converts progesterone into cortisol, testosterone, or estrogen, so managing stress protects itDoing one or two things intentionally beats trying every tip at onceAfter 3-4 months of trying, it's time to test, not keep optimizing, that's information, not bad luckAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

I break down the four biggest mistakes I see: treating supplements as the main strategy instead of support, assuming more is always better, following influencer advice with no context, and reaching for advanced tools like peptides before covering the basics. You'll learn my right therapy, right person, right time framework, why testing before you supplement matters more than which brand you choose, and why supplements can never outwork a lifestyle that's constantly working against you.In this episode, you’ll learn:Supplements are tools to support your diet and lifestyle, not a replacement for themMore isn't automatically better; higher doses, more products, or advanced delivery methods aren't the goal on their ownFollowing influencer or research recommendations without your own context, genetics, or testing rarely translates to real resultsTesting before supplementing lets you address root cause instead of just chasing symptomsNot all supplements are created equal; brand quality, formulation, and even fillers can determine whether something actually works for youAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

I sit down with Anna, founder of Feel Well by Anna, who was diagnosed with a rare cancer in the middle of finding out she was pregnant, and whose fertility journey started with an ectopic pregnancy discovered mid-surgery. We talk through her decision to freeze her eggs before chemotherapy, the mindset work that carried her through years of fear-based decisions, and what finally shifted for her, from nutrient-dense eating to cycle tracking to finding the right partner, on the way to her current, healthy pregnancy.In this episode, you’ll learn:Fear-driven decisions are rarely clear decisions; pausing even two weeks can bring the perspective needed to choose wellTracking fertility signs for years before trying to conceive builds real body literacy, not just the months leading up to itStandard progesterone reference ranges are often too low; NAPRO practitioners look for levels above 20, not just above 10The right partner matters for fertility in ways that go beyond biology; nervous system safety and regulation play a real roleConstant testing and monitoring brings some people peace and creates anxiety for others; knowing which one you are mattersDiet, lifestyle basics, and finding the right partner mattered more to Anna's outcome than any single supplement or protocolAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

    Ep.227: Chronic Fertility: The Right Way to Clear Infections

If we can help, we’ll invite you to a free Fertility Clarity Call with one of my team members. On that call, we’ll go through your story, see what’s been missed, and walk you through our simple 3‑step Clarify → Correct → Conceive process that’s helped over 70% of our clients finally bring home a healthy baby.Episode SummaryIf you've been struggling to conceive for more than two or three years and no one has been able to pin down the root cause, this episode is for you. I walk you through the exact hierarchy we use with chronic fertility cases, why treating one infection like Lyme, mold, or parasites in isolation almost never works, and why pathogens have to be cleared in a specific order, biggest to smallest, before the body can actually heal. You'll learn why symptoms like brain fog, joint pain, or sleep disruption each point to something specific happening in the body, why herx reactions above a six out of ten mean you're pushing too hard, and why years of detoxing without results usually means a piece of the puzzle, not the whole approach, was missing.In this episode, you’ll learn:Infections never come alone; treating one pathogen in isolation almost never fully resolves chronic fertility issuesThere's a specific order to clear infections, biggest to smallest: worms and parasites first, then mold, bacteria, and viral lastHerx reactions above a six out of ten for more than three days mean the body is being pushed too hard, not healing properlyEach symptom points to something specific; low energy suggests mitochondrial or methylation support is needed; brain fog suggests neurotoxic loadBiofilm disruption matters; without it, pathogens can survive months of treatment while still hiding in the bodyPartner testing is essential; couples often pass the same infections back and forth without realizing itAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

I break down why PCOS was just renamed polyendocrine metabolic syndrome, why it starts in the brain and not the ovaries, and the three windows where the root cause actually forms, in utero, during puberty, and in adulthood. You'll learn the full hormone cascade behind your symptoms, from GnRH pulse frequency to androgens to anovulation, why testing matters more than guessing with supplements, and why nervous system regulation, blood sugar, movement, and trauma processing have to come before any protocol will actually work.In this episode, you’ll learn:– PCOS has been renamed polyendocrine metabolic syndrome, reflecting that it was never really about the ovaries– Root causes trace back to three windows, in utero, puberty, and adulthood, not just current symptoms– Maternal androgens and paternal metabolic issues can program a child's future PCOS risk before birth– The disease actually starts in the brain, through GnRH pulse frequency, not in the ovaries– Testing matters more than guessing with supplements, since one supplement alone will never address every layer of the imbalance– Nervous system regulation has to come before any protocol, since it's where the whole hormonal cascade beginsAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

I break down the three leading theories on what causes endometriosis, why it should never be classified as just a "gynecological condition" given how deeply it involves your immune, vascular, and nervous systems, and why cutting out a lesion surgically so often doesn't stop it from coming back. You'll learn the difference between testing that shows how endo is impacting your body versus testing that reveals the actual root cause, why your partner's testing matters just as much as yours, and why I recommend about six months of prep before surgery or IVF instead of jumping straight into a procedure that may not have even been necessary.In this episode, you’ll learn:Endometriosis takes about 10 years to diagnose on average, so the real number of women affected is likely much higher than the reported 10%Endometriosis shouldn't be classified as just a gynecological condition; it involves the immune, vascular, and nervous systems, tooCutting out a lesion surgically doesn't address the root cause, which is why endometriosis often comes backThere are two types of testing that matter: those that show how endo is impacting your body, and those that reveal the actual root causePartner testing matters, especially for microbiome imbalances and DNA fragmentation, since couples share microbial exposureAbout six months of testing and prep before surgery or IVF can prevent spending on a procedure that may not have even been necessaryAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

I share the real story behind why my family and I recently moved from Calgary to Northern Idaho, and the hard lesson we learned about resistance during a five-year green card process. You'll hear why I believe your environment shapes your health as much as any protocol ever could, and why regulating your own nervous system might be the missing piece nobody's told you about.In this episode, you’ll learn:Your environment shapes your health, not just your performanceResistance in a process can mean you have the wrong team, not that you just need to wait longerA regulated nervous system determines how present you can be for your family and your patientsBig life decisions often take longer and cost more than expected, and can still be worth itNothing changes about the practice, fully virtual care continues for patients in Canada and the USIn-person couples' retreats are being planned for the next one to two yearsAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

I break down why “having a functional doctor” does not automatically mean you have a fertility plan, the key nuances most generalists miss (cycle‑timed labs, INITO data, male factor, endo/PMOS/DOR patterns), and why testing one thing at a time quietly burns your most precious resource: time. You’ll learn what a true fertility specialist team actually does differently, and how to know when it’s time to upgrade from general support to a real fertility strategy.In this episode, you’ll learn:– A functional doctor is a generalist, fertility is a specialty, and those are not the same thing– Testing without timing it to your cycle means missing how your hormones actually fluctuate– Ignoring the male partner is one of the biggest blind spots in fertility care– Testing one issue at a time can cost you years you don't have– A CA 125 marker above 30 signals a much higher miscarriage risk– The right team brings your partner in from day one and tracks real resultsAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

I break down the six distinct phases we use to support couples through an IVF cycle, why treating IVF as a single event is where most couples go wrong, and why metabolically healthy women often need far less medication to get better results. You'll learn what actually needs to happen in each phase, from pre-IVF prep through early pregnancy, and hear real cases of couples who needed sixteen months of prep before their cycle finally worked.In this episode, you’ll learn:IVF failing doesn't mean your body is broken, it means you didn't get the right help at the right timeIVF is a tool, not a plan, your results depend on what you do before, during, and after the cycleMetabolically healthy women need far less medication to get great retrieval resultsNothing new on race day, stimulation is not the time to add detoxes or experimental supplementsProgesterone levels should be tested, not assumed, guessing is not a protocolWhat got you pregnant keeps you pregnant, early pregnancy still needs active supportAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

I break down what the seminal microbiome is, why it's the missing piece almost no one is testing, and what we're finding in the clinic that standard semen analysis completely misses. You'll learn how silent organisms quietly damage sperm DNA, why treating only the woman keeps the infection cycling back, and how testing both partners at the same time can shift a case that's been stuck for years.In this episode, you’ll learn:A normal semen analysis only measures sperm output, not what is living inside the semenInfertile couples share roughly half of the same predominant bacterial species between partnersOrganisms like E. coli, Gardnerella, and Candida can silently damage sperm DNA without a single symptomTreating only the woman for BV or yeast will fail if his seminal microbiome is never testedYou are each other's environment.

I share a real couple’s story to show how shared microbiomes, toxins, and low‑grade inflammation in both partners can keep you stuck, why his symptoms and history matter just as much as yours, and how bringing him fully into the workup can shift your fertility journey from you-carrying-it-all to a true team effort.In this episode, you’ll learn:- Endometriosis is a full-body inflammatory condition, not just a reproductive one- Partners share microbiomes through touch, food, kissing, and breathing, not just intimacy- A sperm analysis done after 14 days of abstinence is unreadable and basically useless- Fatigue, anxiety, and unexplained symptoms in men are signs worth investigating before trying to conceive- Fertility struggles are often multigenerational, not just about what's happening in your body right now- When the male partner heals, the female partner typically heals faster tooAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

On that call, we’ll go through your story, see what’s been missed, and walk you through our simple 3‑step Clarify → Correct → Conceive process that’s helped over 70% of our clients finally bring home a healthy baby.Episode SummaryIf you keep getting bacterial vaginosis, are tired of endless antibiotics or boric acid, and you know it has to be connected to your fertility struggles, this episode is for you. I explain why BV is never just a “vaginal issue,” how the gut–vaginal axis, immune system, partner microbiome, and biofilms keep you stuck, and why the standard 7–10 days of antibiotics plus probiotics almost always fails. You’ll learn how I properly test for BV vs aerobic vaginitis, build a real treatment plan (for you and your partner), and why clearing this for good can change your chances of getting and staying pregnant.In this episode, you’ll learn:Recurrent BV is a whole-system problem, not just a vaginal microbiome issueAntibiotics fail because they ignore biofilms, the gut-vaginal axis, and the partnerBV and aerobic vaginitis are two different conditions requiring two different treatment approachesMen are often silent carriers, and both partners must be treated for infections to actually clearBiofilm disruption is the missing step most practitioners skip entirelyClearing a deep infection takes 6 to 12 weeks minimum, not a 7-day antibiotic courseUnresolved BV directly impacts cervical mucus, sperm survival, implantation, and miscarriage riskAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

We walk through a real PCOS case with four miscarriages, “normal” labs, high AMH, failed IVF, and show you exactly what was being missed. If you’ve been told it’s “bad luck,” “your age,” or “unexplained,” this conversation will give you a framework, and real lab examples, for what to actually investigate next.In this episode, you’ll learn:- Recurrent pregnancy loss is not random your body is always trying to tell you something- Getting pregnant and staying pregnant require two completely different things from your body- A high AMH with PCOS means lots of follicles that never mature, not a fertility advantage- IVF can help with fertilization but it cannot fix your underlying biology- Elevated NK cells mean your uterus is too inflamed to accept an embryo- "Normal" labs and optimal fertility labs are not the same thingAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

I walk through a real client case to show why surgery alone often isn’t enough, what her functional labs were really saying through a fertility lens, and what we are doing next to lower recurrence and move her toward pregnancy.In this episode, you’ll learn:Surgery removes the tissue but never removes the environment that caused it to grow in the first placeIf you haven't conceived within 3 to 6 months post-surgery, that's a red flag worth investigating now, not at 18 monthsHigh beta-glucuronidase in the gut means your body is recycling estrogen, which directly feeds endometriosis recurrenceA general functional practitioner without a fertility lens will likely hyper-focus on the wrong markers for an endo patientEstrogen dominance, sluggish digestion, and low secretory IgA are connected patterns, not isolated problems to treat separatelyDeveloping PCOS and endometriosis can co-exist long before any conventional diagnosis is madeAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

We unpack how depletion, gut and vaginal microbiome shifts, infections like Candida and Ureaplasma, hormone changes, and nervous system dysregulation after baby #1 can quietly block baby #2. You’ll hear a real client case, what their labs actually showed, and how to think about realistic recovery timelines before trying again.In this episode, you’ll learn:Secondary infertility is often an unresolved postpartum issue, not a fertility failureBeing told your labs are "normal" does not mean your body is ready to conceive againMost women need at least 6 months after stopping breastfeeding before trying againCandida, Ureaplasma, and leaky gut are silent barriers to implantation that won't resolve on their ownWhat you do with recovery time matters far more than how much time passesPregnancy pushes subclinical issues to the surface, it does not create themAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.

    Ep. 194: Ureaplasma & Infertility - The Hidden Infection Sabotaging Your Fertility Journey

    EPISODE SUMMARY:In this episode, I unpack the often-missed microbe Ureaplasma and its deep impact on fertility, pregnancy outcomes, and even how women feel in their own bodies. From infertility and recurrent loss to preterm birth and neurodevelopmental issues in babies, the research is clear, this infection matters. I walk you through the latest science, how to test for it properly (including what most doctors miss), and what a truly effective treatment plan looks like- including antibiotics, herbal antimicrobials, and deep nervous system and energetic work. We’ll also explore why this bug can hold emotional trauma, how it connects to experiences of disconnection, and what it really means to heal - physically, emotionally, and spiritually. This is not your standard infection protocol. It’s a reframe of what’s possible when you treat the whole woman, not just her labs.ABOUT DR.

    Ep. 185: Case Study- When “Nothing Is Working” and What Actually Moves the Needle in Your Fertility Journey

    EPISODE SUMMARY:In this episode, I walk you through a complex fertility case involving a couple who had “done everything” - IVF, detox protocols, clean living, endless supplements, yet still weren’t making progress. I break down the real reasons they were stuck, including overlooked methylation issues, heavy metal toxicity, microbiome imbalances, and the emotional stress that was impacting their nervous systems. I share how we approached their case differently, what shifted once we had the right data, and how quickly the body can change when you address the actual root causes. If you’ve been spinning your wheels or told to “just keep trying,” this episode will show you what’s possible when fertility care becomes both strategic and deeply personalized.ABOUT DR.
