About this episode
In this powerful episode of Biohack-It , host Iman Hasan sits down with Dr. Jennifer Mercier—a pioneer in reproductive restorative medicine—to unpack the overlooked truths about fertility, IVF, and the root causes of hormonal disruption in women. Dr. Mercier shares her own emotional fertility journey, including the moment she defied a doctor's prognosis and became pregnant against the odds. From low or undetectable AMH levels to underdiagnosed endometriosis, Dr. Mercier reframes what’s possible for women trying to conceive. She explains why a one-size-fits-all IVF plan doesn’t work, the importance of ovulation health, and how pelvic pain is often a clue to deeper dysfunction. Plus, we dive into the power of real food—grass-fed, five-ingredient-max living—and why maintenance of your internal organs is just as vital as a workout plan. This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating fertility or looking to reclaim their hormonal health naturally. 00:00 The IVF Industry and Alternative Approaches 03:03 Understanding the Mercier Method 06:05 The Importance of Blood Flow in Reproductive Health 08:52 Preparing for IVF: A Holistic Approach 12:07 The Role of Individualized Care in Fertility Treatments 14:59 Exploring Experimental Therapies in Fertility 18:02 Analyzing Lab Results and Personal Fertility Journey 20:52 The Impact of Hormones on Fertility 24:07 Bioidentical Hormones vs. Synthetic Hormones 29:47 Optimizing Fertility with Hormonal Support 36:58 Understanding Pelvic Floor Dysfunction 42:52 Success Stories in Fertility Treatment 45:35 The Importance of Hormonal Balance for Longevity 50:35 Dietary Recommendations for Fertility 54:03 Managing Insulin Levels for Better Health – Follow Biohack-it: Instagram | @imanhasan Instagram | @biohack_it X | @imanhasan_ YouTube | @Biohack-it Apple | @Biohack-it Our Sponsors: Just Thrive: Use code BIOHACK-IT to save 20% on your first 90-day bottle of Just Thrive Probiotic Leela Quantum: Use code BIOHACKIT for 10% off your first purchase Bon Charge: Use code BIOHACKIT for 15% off Prima: Use code IMAN20 for 20% off – #BiohackItPodcast #CulturalHealing #ConsciousConversations #EmotionalIntelligence #RespectfulDialogue #PodcastForGrowth #MindfulLeadership #WomenInWellness #Health #Wellness #energy #hormones #hormonehealth #IVF #IUI #Fertility #Infertility #Pregnancy #PCOS
