356: The Science of Getting Pregnant: What Every Woman Should Know | Sasha Hakman

On this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sasha Hakman, a double board-certified OB-GYN and reproductive endocrinologist at HRC Fertility in Beverly Hills. Dr. Hakman is one of the few specialists in the world offering needle-free IVF, and she brings both expertise and empathy to the conversation around fertility, conception, and women’s health.We cover the science and lifestyle factors that impact fertility, including nutrition, exercise, hormone balance, and stress. Dr. Hakman breaks down common myths about fertility, explains what genetic testing can reveal, and shares practical ways to optimize your natural fertility before turning to assisted reproductive technologies. She also gives insight into how metabolic and genetic aging influence egg quality and pregnancy outcomes, and what every couple should know when trying to conceive.→ Leave Us A Voice Message!Topics Discussed: → How can I naturally improve my fertility?→ What are the red flags for infertility?→ Does stress affect your ability to conceive?→ What is needle-free IVF and how does it work?→ How does age impact egg quality and conception?Sponsored By: → Be Well By Kelly Protein Powder & Essentials | Get $10 off your order with PODCAST10 at bewellbykelly.com.→ AG1 | Head to drinkag1.com/bewell to get a FREE Welcome Kit with the flavor of your choice that includes a 30 day supply of AGZ and a FREE frother. → Function |  Visit www.functionhealth.com/BEWELL100 or use gift code BEWELL100 at sign-up to own your health.→ Maui Nui | Right now, Maui Nui is offering a free 12-pack of their jerky sticks with your first order of $79 or more.
