00:00:00 Thank you. Thank you Sebastian and thank you for having me. Right. So a little bit of an introduction about who I am. So my name is Pilar, B'Lermans Narrow, anyone who's got any links to Spain will realize that my name is very Spanish. So am I. And in terms of my background, I'm an international therapist and I'm also a certified functional medicine practitioner in the States. Before this journey, sort of that started nearly 15 years ago, sort of training Before this journey, sort of that started nearly 15 years ago, sort of training
00:00:31 nutrition and becoming an expert in functional medicine. I used to work in finance. I was saying I had to find in London and now you can start sort of thinking about, you know, all the stress or lifestyle, all the issues that I might have had back in the day that led me to fertility issues and eventually led me to training as nutritionist and specializing in fertility. So with you guys, I've been on the journey. I know I know what you're going So with you guys, I've been on the journey. I know I know what you're going
00:01:00 through and I'm pleased to try to help you a little bit. So the point, you know, the sort of the angle of this presentation is not to get into the specifics of any particular condition. What we're trying to do today is to go into the basics. So this kind of firm for both people who only just started trying to conceive people who think came off conceiving in the near future. So people who serve like thinking maybe of fertility preservation, but also for So people who serve like thinking maybe of fertility preservation, but also for
00:01:31 people who've been done the, you know, on this road on the journey for a little bit already. And sometimes I find with my clients, which, you know, I see clients on our one to one basis. I do groups. I do presentations, but I do see that sometimes my clients would have sort of been on the journey for quite some time. They lose a little bit of perspective. So, you know, they might be going to very sort of like sophisticated testing. They might go into sort of investigating very complicated conditions that they might might not have, but
00:01:59 they lose sight of the basics. they lose sight of the basics. And sometimes it's just good to probably be back. So, right, are you still doing the very basic stuff that's going to get you 50% of the journey there. Right. So, as we can do today. And we're going to do it for both male and female. Regardless of what gender would gender use to identify us today because at the end of the day, we're looking at eggs and sperm, and we're looking at hormones.
00:02:25 And surprisingly, the hormones are all the same, you know, for both, you know, male and female fertility. How they interact with each other. That's like a male and female fertility. How they interact with each other. That's like a different, you know, the basic of the hormones. They all the same. Right. See, and also at the same time, we're going through the presentation. What we 're trying to do is make this as useful and as an action or as possible for you.
00:02:49 So talking about all the theory and all the research and, you know, everything that I'm going to present today is back by research. The studies that I've used are at the back of the presentation. If you want to The studies that I've used are at the back of the presentation. If you want to have a copy of those, I'm pretty sure Sebastian will be able to to give you a couple of copies of the links to them so you can download them yourself. But what we're trying to do is translate that into something that is really easy to carry out at home. Nothing complicated. It's like it's a sort of like
00:03:16 chopping and dice it. So it's actually something that you can start doing tomorrow. And also how to help make you make those changes. Like it's all very good to go and say like, well, have a balanced diet. But what is a balanced diet? Right. That is very basic, but still it's kind of like go through those motions and see, you know, how we can help on that front. And the point of making those changes, supporting your fertility, even your those tips is to support your hormone balance and to boost egg and its prime

Why I put in these two things together, because in order for your eggs to mature properly, you know, the two, you know, for the egg that's released in every cycle or for an IVS cycle, are they a cycle to be successful. every cycle or for an IVS cycle, are they a cycle to be successful. Your hormones need to be balanced. You need to have a number of cycles where those eggs have been matured, or like, what I normally say is basically brought out from the deep freezer in order for them to be released when they need to.
00:04:18 So hormones do matter, right? For your, you know, obviously for your cycles to be regulated and for you to regulate, but also for your eggs to be the best possible quality, optimal quality.

So the more balanced your hormones, the stronger they are, the stronger your sperm parameters will be.
