Description:

"Poor egg quality" is not a diagnosis. It's where clinics stop looking.

If you've been told you have poor egg quality after failed IVF, low AMH, embryo arrest, or recurrent pregnancy loss, this episode will change how you understand that label and what to do next.

Here's the truth most women are never told: poor egg quality is not directly measured. It's a conclusion clinics infer based on age, embryo grading, or how your ovaries responded to stimulation. When IVF fails, that label often becomes the end of the conversation instead of the beginning of a deeper investigation.

In this episode, I break down the five physiological patterns we see repeatedly in women with low AMH, failed IVF, embryo arrest, and pregnancy loss and why correcting these patterns can lead to pregnancy even when AMH does not change.

In this episode, you'll learn:
  • Why "poor egg quality" is a label, not a test result and what clinics are actually inferring

  • How gut and vaginal microbiome stress drive inflammation and impair nutrient absorption critical for egg development

  • Why mineral depletion disrupts mitochondrial energy, hormone signaling, and cellular communication in the ovary

  • How blood sugar instability and circadian disruption interfere with ovulation and progesterone

  • Why nervous system overload and HPA-axis patterns affect immune balance, implantation, and early embryo development

I'm Sarah Clark, founder of Fab Fertile and host of Get Pregnant Naturally. For over a decade, my team and I have reviewed hundreds of failed IVF cases and helped couples improve pregnancy outcomes naturally and alongside IVF. We specialize in low AMH, high FSH, diminished ovarian reserve, premature ovarian insufficiency, and recurrent pregnancy loss using functional testing and personalized fertility strategies.

This episode is for you if:
  • You were told you have poor egg quality with no clear explanation why

  • IVF failed, embryos stopped growing, or all embryos tested were abnormal

  • You don't want another medication tweak or repeated protocol, you want answers
