Ever wondered if oxygen therapy could boost fertility? Have you been told to take coenzyme Q10 while trying to conceive, or maybe melatonin? In this episode, we serve up the research on antioxidants in the fertility space, and whether they're either worth trying, a waste of money, or, in some cases, possibly doing you harm. Rebecca even puts her body on the line to test one of these antioxidants…with unexpected results. (The things we'll do for our podcast listeners!).

The days of women being solely blamed for infertility are (thankfully!) behind us. A third of cases of infertility in a couple are now attributed solely to the male, and when taken in combination with a partner's issues, that number rises up to around 50%. In this ep, we discuss fertility investigations, common male fertility problems, and what can be done to improve male fertility. We'll also touch on the growing research around male age.

Unexplained infertility is a hard road to travel. And is it really unexplained, or have we just not found the cause yet? In this episode, we discuss how we might diagnose this complex condition better, when laparoscopy and tubal testing can be helpful, and whether IVF over IUI for these patients is likely to deliver a significantly better result. Also, is DNA fragmentation testing really worth it?
