It's hilariously impressive that a hospitalist makes a video about infertility . Thumb up Dr. Eric👍

You read my mind doctor eric :). I was hoping that you would do a video about this topic, because i know it would be amazing. Thanks for your amazing efforts.

Update: ovulation induction with Letrozole is now preferred over clomiphene. Less chances of multiple pregnancy and more of live births with the former.

Hi Dr Eric, could you please do a lecture series on emergency medicine? Your lectures are an absolute treat to watch! Great work sir!

Very nice. I heard balanced chromosomal translocations can also be a sneaky cause of infertility often filed under "idiopathic".

Can I as a non medical lay person ask a question

[MonaSax-ircw]

Does having epilepsy make it more dangerous and difficult to get pregnant

Wow thanks, no matter if you’re 40 or whatever, after reading Dobbie Nerkstrol's guide, I ended up pleasantly surprised. Within 60 days anyone can get pregnant, feeling the changes in your body the first few weeks. After go’ogling her I understood it's not a miracle kind of thing like the title suggests, but you can bet you'll boost your chances.
