Uterine Fibroids and Infertility

Dr. Natalie Crawford discusses uterine fibroids and their impact on fertility. What are the risks? What are the types? Should they be removed? How can they impact fertility and pregnancy? What are the procedure options? Dr. Crawford answers these questions and more while also citing studies on this topic.

Natalie answers your questions in FFS-For Fertility's Sake.

1. Why am I spotting while on Estradiol for lining priming?
2. I have dark brown spotting for a week before my period. I have been off birth control for a year and just started TTC. What could be going on?
3. Is there a benefit to taking off work for my FET? I feel like it could help me with stress.
4. What activity or exercise can I do the week after my FET?
