EPISODE SUMMARY:In this episode, Dr. Jane is joined by Harvard-awarded fertility specialist Gabriela Rosa, founder of the Rosa Institute and author of Fertility Breakthrough. Together, they unpack why the conventional fertility system often fails those facing unexplained infertility, how the lack of individualized diagnostics leads to ineffective treatments, and what needs to change to improve outcomes. With over two decades of experience and a proven 78.8% live birth rate, Gabriela shares what truly moves the needle - from proper testing to evidence-based protocols, and the critical role of patient-practitioner alignment. This is an essential conversation for anyone navigating fertility challenges and seeking a more effective, results-driven approach.ABOUT DR.
