Could hidden infections be standing in the way of your pregnancy success? In this episode, we explore why vaginal microbiome testing is a game changer for fertility.

You'll learn how imbalances like bacterial vaginosis, ureaplasma, and chronic yeast, even without symptoms can impact implantation, egg and sperm quality, and increase miscarriage risk.
