Today on the pod, it’s test day. But don’t worry–this episode is for anyone who gets overwhelmed by tests. Carly and Dr. Clark tell you everything your doctor won't about your tests: which tests are essential, which ones are overlooked, and how most OBs are missing key markers that could impact fertility, pregnancy outcomes, and long-term health. They cover everything from thyroid panels to sex hormones, cholesterol, methylation, heavy metals, iron levels, and more. They also talk about how to advocate for yourself around testing and what labs are worth self-ordering. Oh, and Carly talks about the time she had to draw so much blood it took two days. Her preconception plan: https://us.fullscript.com/plans/melissaclark-the-science-of-fertility-her-preconception-plan His preconception plan: https://us.fullscript.com/plans/melissaclark-the-science-of-fertility-his-preconception-planPregnancy support plan: https://us.fullscript.com/plans/melissaclark-the-science-of-fertility-pregnancy-plan Postpartum plan: https://us.fullscript.com/plans/melissaclark-the-science-of-fertility-postpartum-plan Carly's Substack: https://substack.com/@carlykremerutm_source=TheScienceOf&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=EPISODE01Dr. Melissa Clark: https://medbymel.com/aboutBeekeepersNaturals.com Hosted on Acast.
