Infertility Is Rising: The Truth About Hormones, Toxins & Gut Health

Infertility, PCOS, high cortisol, and hormone imbalances are skyrocketing, and today we’re talking about what’s REALLY driving it (and what to do next). One in eight couples are struggling to conceive… and the rates have doubled since the 1990s. So if you’ve been told “just wait,” “just relax,” or you’re quietly wondering why this feels so hard, this episode is for you. I'm sitting down with Elizabeth Amos, FNP-C, CNM — Functional Medicine trained and former clinician with Gary Brecka's 10X Health Solutions — to unpack the real root causes she's seeing behind infertility: stress hormones, endocrine disruptors, gut health, insulin resistance, thyroid issues, and the missing labs most conventional providers never run. 🎧 In this episode, we talk about: ✨ Why infertility rates are rising (and why it’s not “just age”) 🧠 The stress → cortisol → DHEA → hormone domino effect 🥚 PCOS + insulin resistance: what’s actually driving it 🦠 The gut connection (GI-MAP + the “5R” gut healing process) 🧪 Labs most doctors miss (and what Liz checks first) 💧 Practical swaps that matter: water filtration + EWG app + toxin load 🥩 The simple nutrition targets Liz starts with (protein + veggies) ⚡ Why caffeine + alcohol can keep your body stuck in fight-or-flight 🤝 Why working with both partners changes outcomes (yes, men matter too) 🌿 Gentle support vs forcing the body (functional approach vs IVF-only) 🧡 If you’re in the TTC season… This isn’t about blaming your body. It’s about supporting it — so it can do what it was designed to do. 🔗 Connect + resources mentioned: Find a certified functional medicine practitioner: IFM (Institute for Functional Medicine) “Find a Practitioner” (ifm.org) Mentioned tool: EWG app (Environmental Working Group) Elizabeth’s website: https://elizabethamosnp.com/ EWG website: https://www.ewg.org/skindeep/ doTERRA products: https://referral.doterra.me/1209 💬 Let’s talk in the comments: Have you been told “everything looks normal”… but you still don’t feel normal?
