The JelliePod - A podcast by Ellie Thompson

Categories:

We're joined by Medical Director of IVI London Dr. Cesar Diaz-Garcia MD PhD Assoc Prof to talk about the impact of Covid-19 on fertility, the AMH and menstrual cycles.  We quiz Dr. Diaz-Garcia on the AMH test and why there's often a discrepancy in results between clinics that confuses us all, to how you can improve your AMH and what you might be doing to damage it.  We cover Covid and its impact on the AMH, as well as the vaccine and what it's doing to menstrual cycles and fertility in general.  We ask about fertility treatment in relation to having a vaccine and when it might be best to wait.  Biography  Dr Cesar Diaz-Garcia is an award-winning fertility specialist and surgeon, Medical Director of leading fertility clinic IVI London and an Honorary Associate Professor at University College London.
