Know in 4 hrs: Decide whether or not to freeze your eggs, do IVF or surrogacy Kristin Hauser joins us today to talk about cultivating female fertility outside of the medical model. She has been working in the fertility space for over ten years, as an acupuncturist and sex and relationship coach. Kristin has seen all manner of fertility issues, from women later in their fertile years, who’ve been working to the point of burn out, to the less talked about, younger women whose cycles were damaged by hormonal birth control. Inventions such as intrauterine insemination, IVF, to surrogacy, are touted by the fertility industry as the best path to motherhood if you don’t conceive within a few months of trying. As an acupuncturist, Kristin tried to serve women within this model, but soon realized it was out of integrity for her. She encourages women and men to consider their fertility as an extension of creativity, of their physical and spiritual wellbeing, and she uses a variety of methods that never require invasive testing or surgery. In this episode Kristin discusses fertility struggles are a catalyst for sexual reawakening, and how staying out of the mainstream medical model, women can come into motherhood in power. Kristin's class Restoring Your Fertility and Ovarian Vitality is a great place to start for women who want to truly understand their bodies and improve their fertility with ease and without medical intervention.
