Hello Dr. Shahine, I love your videos. I would be so interested in learning more about fertility and how to have a healthy plus size pregnancy. I have not seen many folks taking a HAES approach to fertility and you are always so thoughtful and intentional with how you cover topics. I would love your take. Thank you so much!

[@drlorashahine]

Thank you so much for watching my videos. This is a great suggestion that I can discuss in a future video :)

[@chicpeachaf]

I find this video so interesting! I have endometriosis and a history of vitamin D deficiency. I had no idea that they could be related!

[@drlorashahine]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much for watching :)

[@juliannewhitney975]

Hi Dr. Shahine, I love all of your videos I have watched so far and have found them to be very helpful. I know you cover a little bit on low AMH levels on the general tests that should be run. Can you do a video on maybe the best ART approach for women with significantly low AMH levels (below .2) - IUI vs IVF? As I understand it, AMH levels can increase a little, but overall it doesn't generally increase from .2 to over 1. Can you expound a little be about what those who have low AMH should focus on (I.E. cleaner diet, avoiding plastics, chemicals, increased exercise, etc.)?

my pleasure. Thank you for watching!

[@rachelpalikaras6904]

I live in Israel and I was looking for something on what benefits vitamin d have and stumbled onto your channel. Funny enough, I'm undergoing IVF treatment (hopefully with Frozen embryo). Just turned 40 in April, do you have any videos that you can refer me to. I watched, the day of transfer video. Thanks so much!

[@drlorashahine]

Thank you for watching Rachel. I have a lot of content on the subject on this channel, website drlorashahine.com, CZcams and Instagram account @drlorashahine that are great sources for you

[@iM-mf1ke]

Thank you Dr. Shahine for your videos. Is there a video that explains what causes uterine polyps? I had a somewhat large one removed 9 months ago and an ultrasound shows that I have more irregularities in my uterus again and I’ll need to have them removed before an embryo transfer is done. (My husband shares his CZcams video login with me :-). Thank you.

Thank you Doctor for the information. I have low vitamin D and so as my husband, we live in Austria so we need to take it additionally and we just had a miscarriage and we think it might be also related to that.

Hi Dr. Lora, I had a low Vit D level of 61 nmol/L with my antenatal blood test, ended with a miscarriage at 7+1wks 😢

[@xuanchung3158]

Great video. Appreciate all the information you are sharing. Possible topic: how to go about choosing a sperm donor for IUI.

Thank you for watching! That's a great suggestion for a future video :)

If everything goes well this should do the job. But listen, there's one factor that's usually overlooked that can considerably speed up the process, unfortunately I do not have it at hand, but it can be go’ogled Dobbie Nerkstrol's Infertility Cure, I think.

[@brittanytavares]

And aren’t you supposed to supplement vitamin D3 WITH vitamin K2 ?
