Mental Health and Emotional Wellness Through Infertility with Dr. Ali Domar from Harvard University

Let's get to the heart of emotional stress and its impact on physical health. Reproductive endocrinologist and host Dr. Lora Shahine welcomes Dr. Ali Domar, a world leader in mind-body medicine, for an honest discussion about stress, infertility, grief, empathy, and the many different emotions that come with family building.

Dr. Domar is a pioneer in the application of mind/body medicine and reproductive health, and in this episode, she sheds light on the discoveries she's made about stress and the body throughout her career. Dr. Shahine and Dr. Domar dive right into stress and its correlation with infertility, along with the benefits of developing mind/body management skills. Additional points of discussion include the differences between the way men and women process stress with infertility, the emotional impact of IVF between partners, and celebrities' impact—for better and for worse—on the way we understand infertility.
