40 and Infertile - A Fertility Podcast for the 40 and older
Episode 39 - WARRIOR STORY - 4 laparoscopies, Recovery Tips, IVF at 40, Infertility at 40 with @is_there_an_endo_to_this
09 Apr 2023
Today, I’m honored to have my friend Nicole a fellow IVF and endometriosis and adneomysosis warrior on the show to share her story. On this episode, we’re talking about her 4 laparoscopies and what recovery was like for her since we don’t really talk about recovery often. We share our 2 very different recoveries. We also discuss infertility at 40, finding the right doctor, and pelvic floor physical therapy. Nichole is one of the first people that I talked to about endometriosis and she introduced me to Kate @endogirlblog if you follow her. I messaged her during my endometriosis laparoscopy recovery and she helped me prepare for recovery, which was so helpful. Nichole is so amazing, kind, and I love her honesty! She’ll tell you like it is! So, if you want an honest opinion about something, she’s not shy and will give it to your straight, which is what we need sometimes! So, if you’re wondering about laparoscopic excision recovery, IVF in your 40s, or finding the right doctor and how she has navigated through this, this is your episode. To round out your IVF survival guide, I would recommend the following episodes before your first IVF cycle: Episode 23: What Happens to Your Fertility in your 20s, 30s, and 40s Episode 19: All About Sperm Episode 24: Controlling Your Weigh During IVF Episode 20: Stimulation Protocols Episode 21: All About Your Embryos in the lab Episode 33: All About Genetic Testing Episode 38: The Emotions of Infertility and How to Manage These Feelings -------------------------------------------------------- RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE Books mentioned on this episode can be found here: www.amazon.com/shop/40andinfertile DONATE HERE: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/40andinfertile SPECIAL LISTENER OFFER FOR PRANAMAT: https://pranamat.com/af/ynkjmqzx?coupon=40andinfertile (CODE: 40andinfertile) -------------------------------------------------------- ON THIS EPISODE: Connect with Nichole: https://www.instagram.com/is_there_an_endo_to_this/ Nancy's Nook: https://nancysnookendo.com/
