Fertility Wellness

Taking steps to achieve your fertility wellness goals today creates a blueprint for a healthy lifestyle that will last a lifetime. RADfertility’s Blueprint for Fertility Wellness program guides you on a journey to better reproductive health to maximize your fertility potential.

Lifestyle and Fertility Wellness Consultations

The journey to a healthy pregnancy begins with a healthy lifestyle, good nutrition, and proper control of any chronic medical conditions. For many patients these goals are often hard to reach alone. Whether patients suffer from persistent medical issues, or struggle with unhealthy lifestyles, the Fertility Wellness Program guides patients on their journey to better reproductive health. Through diet, exercise, and lifestyle counseling, the program is designed to enhance fertility, weight loss, metabolic function, aerobic capacity, flexibility, strength, and stamina. By boosting overall wellness, patients can improve future fertility and pregnancy outcomes.

How Weight and Metabolic Issues Impact Fertility

For women who suffer from weight and metabolic challenges, diet and nutrition can play a huge role in determining the health of a potential pregnancy. The effects of obesity can contribute to menstrual cycle disturbances, prolonged infertility treatments, pregnancy loss, and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Not only does added weight make it difficult to become pregnant, but women with a BMI greater than forty are at increased risk for preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, large gestational age infants, and hypertension during pregnancy. By targeting these modifiable risk factors that may impact fertility and pregnancy outcomes, we can enhance IVF success rates and promote healthy pregnancies.

Blueprint for Fertility Wellness Plan

At your initial visit you will meet with Ashley Kontra, PA-C where your medical history, family history, and current medications will be thoroughly reviewed. Your plans for future family building will also be discussed. After reviewing all of this information, a plan of care will be developed for your unique needs. Your individualized Fertility Wellness Plan will include nutrition, exercise, and treatment recommendations, and will serve as your road map to better reproductive health. Sign up using our RADfit Application to get started!

"I feel so lucky to have found RADfertility. I tried two other clinics before I expanded my search and found RADfertility. I drive an hour each way to go to them but I don’t regret a thing. They are so caring and so professional. Every time I message them they respond quickly. Every time I see them they have a friendly smile and warm welcome. They explain everything so well and I never feel lost in the process as I did elsewhere. They also took the time to figure out what was wrong. Other clinics threw up their hands, said 'I don’t know' and pushed me to try IVF."

"Dr. Feinberg and the entire staff at RADfertility are absolutely amazing. The receptionists, coordinators, nurses, and lab staff are compassionate, caring, and straight forward. I’ve had a 12-year infertility journey and I’ve tried other clinics but RADfertility was the only one I felt at ease with. They answered any questions that I had and were there any time I needed them. My coordinator, Amy, was the absolute best and always had my back. Dr. Feinberg’s dedication to his patients is incredible. You are not just a number there, you are a person with individualized needs and care."

"My journey with RADfertility and Dr. McGuirk started when my husband and I were trying to conceive and were having difficulty. We went to RADfertility, where we met Dr. McGuirk. I always say she changed my life and 'fixed' me. Dr. McGuirk is always learning more about endometriosis and how to help her patients. She’s brilliant and truly cares for you! I’m eternally grateful to her and everyone at RADfertility for their unwavering support, love, and care."

"The day I met Dr. Neithardt I knew she was the perfect doctor for me. Dr. Neithardt was so compassionate every step of the way. She held my hand, she hugged away tears, and continued to give me hope. There are not enough 'thank you's' in the world for Dr. Neithardt and the whole RADfertility team who will forever have a special place in my heart."

"I cannot begin to explain how wonderful RADfertility is. We were frustrated with trying to start a family and it not working for us. The entire team of doctors and nurses made us feel comfortable and hopeful that we would be parents. We experienced so many ups and downs but we never felt like we were on our IVF journey alone, we had our RADfertility team every step of the way. If you're looking for a supportive team on the IVF journey, look no further. RADfertility is the absolute best."
