Wondering if GLP-1 medications affect egg freezing or fertility? Tendwell Functional Medicine in Denver offers personalized fertility optimization, metabolic support, and hormone balancing to prepare your body for IVF and pregnancy.
At Tendwell, we use cutting edge science and take an integrative medicine or functional medicine approach to health. When I work with clients desiring fertility, I tend to look at a lot of labwork in the beginning. Some of my favorites being: CBC w/diff, CMP, vitamin D, vitamin B12, homocysteine, MTHFR, CoQ10, Omega 3/6 levels, iron, ferritin, fasting blood sugar, hemoglobin A1C, and a full thyroid panel. We also get very specific hormone testing: day 3: estrogen, FSH, LH, testosterone, prolactin, DHEA-S, SHBG, AMH and day 21: progesterone levels.
So you’ve decided that you’d like to start a family. This can be an exciting time. It can also raise many questions and concerns. In this functional medicine blog, we will discuss how to prepare from the perspective of a functional medicine doctor.
