Should I delay my transfer after a diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis and endo? (Ask the Egg Whisperer)

 Should I delay my transfer after a diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis and endometriosis? That was one of the thoughtful questions I answered in this week’s Ask The Egg Whisperer LIVE Q&A! I love going live to answer real questions from this amazing community. Whether you're just beginning to think about growing your family or navigating your way through IVF, this space is for learning, connection, and support. Here are a few more questions I covered in this week’s episode: 💬 What do you suggest for fragile eggs after 5 IVF cycles? I have very low blast rates. 💬 We had a failed cycle, and we’re exploring options to address DNA fragmentation for my partner. 💬 I’ve had 4 egg retrievals, but no blasts—even after trying TESE and Omnitrope. What’s next? 💬 Is cabergoline helpful for adenomyosis—especially in shrinking the uterus before a frozen embryo transfer? It’s always incredible to see the support you all give each other in the comments during the live! Your strength, curiosity, and compassion make this community so special. Whether you're asking or listening in, I hope you walked away feeling more informed, prepared, and hopeful. 📺 You can catch the replay now on Instagram, and be sure to check out The Egg Whisperer Show on YouTube. 🎧 The podcast is also available on Spotify and Apple!
