30 Beyond The Sperm Test: The Hidden Male Factors Affecting Pregnancy Outcomes Fertility & Wholeness With Arianna /Optimize Fertility: Boost Your Pregnancy Chances, Stress-Free, Holistic Wellness podcast

Hey Fertility Friend!

Three losses. Then, a positive pregnancy test. But instead of joy, I felt panic. Could we have been missing something all along?

In this episode, I share our deeply personal journey of uncovering the hidden role male factors play in pregnancy outcomes. From genetic testing to lifestyle changes, we explore how male fertility impacts not just conception but the health of pregnancies—and even the health of the father himself. Whether you're navigating recurrent pregnancy loss or simply seeking answers, this episode will empower you with knowledge and hope.

- Why male fertility factors are often overlooked in infertility and pregnancy loss.
- The limitations of standard sperm analysis and what it doesn’t reveal.
