In this episode we sit down with an ovulation guru and Founder of Proov Testing, Amy Beckley. We discussed how her issues with ovulation and infertility lead her to create Proov for other women to get to track their cycles and understand their bodies better.
We talk about How to know you have healthy ovulation and how to promote healthy ovulation. We discuss why urine testing is helpful and how the Proov app allows you to track your ovulation as well what they call an Ovulation Quality Score. The Ovulation quality score is helpful in determining at home how much progesterone you are making after ovulation. It will tell a woman if ovulation happened and how well it happened. This allows women to take this information to their fertility doctor or to understand symptoms like painful cycles and PMS
How to promote healthy ovulation?
- There are things you can do if you are trying to conceive such as working with your doctor for ovulation medication, or a more natural approach like supplementing with bio-identical progesterone, Chinese herbal treatments and seed cycling.
We talked a lot about how your mental health can impact your cycle as well as when to do hormone testing.
We also chatted about the new balancing oil that Proov Test has which is an over the counter supplement. We recommend speaking to your doctor about using it. It has 4 ingredients, to support a healthy balance including 2500 mg of bioidentical progesterone.
