We're diving into what a positive ANA and autoimmunity could mean for your chances of pregnancy success.
Autoimmune markers like antinuclear antibodies (ANA) are often overlooked, but they could be silently interfering with your IVF success.
In this episode, we dive deep into how positive ANA affects implantation, increases pregnancy loss, and contributes to failed IVF cycles. We explore what the research says, why these markers matter even if you don't have a formal autoimmune diagnosis, and how our Fab Fertile Method can help.
Whether you're preparing for IVF or struggling with unexplained infertility or miscarriage, this episode offers insight, hope, and a path forward.
This episode is for you:
✅ You have positive ANA or other autoimmune markers and want to understand how they impact IVF success.
✅ You’ve experienced failed implantation, recurrent miscarriage, or unexplained IVF failure and suspect autoimmunity could be a factor.
✅ You’re looking for functional medicine/nutrition strategies to reduce inflammation, balance your immune system, and improve your chances of a successful pregnancy.
In this episode you'll learn:
How ANA and other autoantibodies disrupt embryo implantation and hormone balance
The latest research linking ANA to lower IVF pregnancy rates
How chronic inflammation and gut health influence immune function
Functional strategies to rebalance the immune system: anti-inflammatory nutrition, gut repair, targeted supplements like NAC and LDN, detox support, and stress management
How to integrate medical and holistic approaches for better outcomes
