Infertility or miscarriage is a symptom, not a disease. So, what are the common causes?
There are a multitude of factors that can contribute to the symptom of not being able to conceive or carry a child to term. Mineral deficiencies, hormonal imbalance, genetics, environmental toxicities, subclinical or mismanaged thyroid disorders, immune dysregulation, liver disorders, physical, social and economic and many more factors need to be addressed in a way that is healing and medically sound. The technology we have today can provide us with more information than we can understand, but the true answers lie in optimizing each factor.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Natural Fertility?
While Dr. Angelina is used to treating all types of hormone imbalances, infertility has been a passion and journey of hers for many years now.
She tailors your treatment to address all of the little imbalances in the body that accumulate to causing infertility. Whether it is unexplained, PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, pelvic inflammation, or simply irregular periods–especially coming off birth control pills–Dr. Angelina has helped most of her patients with successful outcomes.
Natural fertility can be used as a proactive measure to take control of conceiving before medical intervention, or alongside conventional therapies and reproductive procedures to help improve outcomes.
Why Natural Fertility?
The end goal of natural fertility is a healthy and happy mother & baby–whether assisted medically or not.
Beyond the financial cost of healthcare options beyond medications for supporting pregnancy, research reflects what Dr. Angelina has seen commonly in practice: the least amount of intervention leads to the least amount of risk.
Dr. Angelina is happy to empower all of her patients to stay healthy for conception, throughout the pregnancy, and through mom’s recovery and all of the firsts of the baby.

If what you’re doing hasn’t worked for you, it is never too late to come in for natural fertility advisement. This is because your treatment is tailored to what your individual body needs to assist in carrying a new life.
How long would I expect to work with Dr. Angelina?
Most of the work you start together will help exponentially and get things going within months. But in her advanced-age and extremely low AMH population, she has worked together for longer. The time frame she has worked with individuals and couples has ranged from 1-3 months until pregnant, to 2 years for some individuals who have been informed of poor prognosis. Her heart goes into your work together, so she will be happy to work with you until you like. However, Dr. Angelina will also be realistic with you in advising whether it will be time to consider any advanced reproductive technology that is available within an appropriate time frame (which doesn’t happen often).
What treatments can I expect?
In Dr. Angelina’s decade of successes with many patients, she has noticed that combining multiple therapies tends to offer better success at faster rates than piecing therapies apart. Your Initial Visit would include a thorough history and tailored treatment plan based on the 1 hour intake. The treatment plan will consist of any lab suggestions that will offer further insight, diet and nutritional supplement guidance, home therapies and routines, as well as in office therapies. Optimizing your nutrition, hormone balance and stress management are among the top goals. Therapies that can be taken advantage of in office include stress-relieving BioMat therapy, vitamin injections and IV nutrition, acu needles, as well as hypnotherapy and meditation counseling.
What is the investment?
The investment will vary based on your individual situation. Dr. Angelina offers a Free 15 min Consultation to discuss what would be best for you based on your goals and expectations.
