The conversation we need earlier

What do we deserve to know about fertility before we are ready to have a baby?

Learn what Dr. Marina wishes every patient knew before trying to conceive.

Support future health

Explore which aspects of preconception health may be worth addressing now.

Ask better questions

Think about fertility, timing and options without fear, blame or false promises.

Mother. Daughter. Doctors.

One conversation we need earlier.

Dr. Marina has discussed fertility with thousands of patients. Discussing it with her own daughter was different.

Together, they will talk honestly about demanding careers, fertility timing, egg freezing and the difficult balance between being informed and feeling pressured.

“This is not about telling women when to have children. It is about giving people knowledge and choices before decisions become urgent.”

What we’ll explore

An honest hour about health, timing and choice

  • What to consider if pregnancy may still be three to five years away

  • What lifestyle can—and cannot—realistically influence

  • How to talk about age without creating fear or blame

  • When egg freezing may be part of the conversation

  • Why preconception health includes both partners

  • When it is time to seek individualized medical advice
