“I want to share my story of hope. During my fourth pregnancy, I miscarried. I sat in my doctor’s office devastated, desperate for answers. Instead of compassion or solutions, I was told the standard of care: nothing could be done until I experienced two more miscarriages. In other words, I would have to endure that heartbreak two more times before anyone would even begin to ask why it was happening.
I couldn’t accept that. I was grieving, but I was also searching. That’s when a friend told me about Restorative Reproductive Medicine. For the first time, I was heard. Symptoms that had been brushed aside for years were finally taken seriously. Through thorough testing, I finally had answers, and more importantly, a path forward.
We discovered underlying autoimmune disease, prediabetes, hormonal insufficiency, and adenomyosis-conditions that explained not only my miscarriage, but years of health struggles. My treatment plan included progesterone, metformin, evidence-based supplements, DHEA, and both diet and lifestyle changes. But most importantly, I worked together with my physician, who not only saw me as an individual but supported each pregnancy individually. It wasn’t about fitting the patient into a protocol, but shaping the protocol to fit the patient.
This proactive approach empowered me. My doctor took the time to educate me about my body, teaching me how to optimize my cycles and health—not just preconception, but during pregnancy and postpartum. For the first time, I felt like a true partner in my own care.
With this kind of care, my health improved, and my family grew. Today, I stand here with eight beautiful children—five of whom would likely not be here without RRM.
RRM gave me hope when I was told there was none. My story is not unique. Countless women and families could be spared loss and given answers sooner if only this kind of care were available and supported more widely. No woman should have to endure loss after loss before she’s taken seriously.
RRM is hope, it’s healing, and it’s the future of women’s healthcare. Thank you.
