EPISODE SUMMARY: In this solo episode, I share what I’ve been seeing in clinic lately, specifically how certain bugs like Enterococcus faecalis are showing up in the vaginal microbiome and impacting fertility. I walk you through why gut and vaginal health are deeply connected, why testing matters, and yes… why it might be time to say goodbye to your thongs. If you’re struggling with unexplained infertility, recurrent loss, or endometriosis, this is a must-listen. ABOUT DR. JANE’S PRACTICE: Dr. Jane is a Naturopathic Doctor and a Natural Fertility Expert. She and her team of expert practitioners help couples navigate infertility for 1+ years, get to the root cause of their struggles, heal, and bring healthy babies home. After having a family member struggle with infertility and experiencing a miscarriage herself, Dr. Jane realized how little support and education women receive. She is on a mission to change that. Since 2020, she has dedicated her practice to fertility, where she and her practitioners work with couples 1:1, running functional lab work, customizing treatment plans and providing her couples with the support they need to get pregnant, have a stress free pregnancy and a healthy baby.

MEET TODAY’S GUEST: From the gritty streets of Detroit to the transformative world of holistic healing, my journey has been anything but linear. As a chiropractor, healer, and guide, I’ve embraced the fluidity of being what my clients need—whether that’s a structural realignment, functional medicine insights, or a connection to something deeper. My path was shaped by resilience—a childhood of survival, a serendipitous fall that introduced me to chiropractic care, and a career that evolved from working in mental health wards to unlocking the body’s innate potential through neurofeedback, genetics, and hands-on healing. Guided by spirit, science, and an unshakable commitment to well-being, I stand as both student and teacher, continuously expanding my toolkit to serve those seeking balance, relief, and transformation. Your body tells a story—I’ve learned its language, and I’m here to help you listen.

Detoxification can take a significant amount of time, often 12-18 months. The body naturally attempts to eliminate heavy metals through various means. Testing is crucial to determine the presence and levels of heavy metals. Parasites can indicate heavy metal toxicity but are not the root cause of health issues. Inflammation in the body can lead to various health problems, including infertility. Blood testing is preferred for assessing heavy metal exposure. Chelation methods vary and should be tailored to individual needs. Nutrition plays a vital role in supporting the detoxification process. Finding a qualified practitioner is essential for effective treatment. Memorable Quotes “My job as a practitioner is to figure out what is driving the inflammation in this person's body. So if you have any amount of inflammation in the body, maybe you don't know if you have parasites or not, but you have acne, have endometriosis or adenomyosis or PCOS or ADHD. I just have one of my couples, he has... ADD and it's like, okay, let's just put them on Adderall. It's like, how about we figure out why his brain is inflamed?" “I think it's oversimplified to say, you have heavy metals to start doing some chlorella and some good binders and support some drainage and you're good because you're going to probably have some infections that pop up because this metal was causing this infection and now the body has the ability to actually purge and get rid of it which means it has to express itself and i have this fungal rush all of sudden yeah because the body finally has the strength to get rid of it instead of suppressing it all the time” “How long is it going to take to detox? And this is a question that I don't think anybody really has an answer to because once you go down this rabbit hole, it's like a Pandoras box. You don't know how much is going to come out. You just don't know. You don't know if this heavy toxic load has been in your system for so long and your poor body is just waiting to get it out.” Connect with Dr. Jane Levesque Website - https://www.drjanelevesque.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/drjanelevesque/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/DrJaneLevesque/…

By the time many couples get to me, the romance out of their relationship is gone…the sex is scheduled, regimented and goal driven (to make a baby). So in this episode I break down what should happen with our hormones and create a deep feeling of connection, euphoria and pleasure. And how increasing those hormones can actually increase our chances of conceiving. Tune in to learn more. ========== STOP wasting time and grasping at straws.

"If you don't have any libido, you should be concerned. You should have hormones telling you it's time to procreate.

Because if you want to be a go getter and lively and accomplish a lot of things in life and you want to build a family and your test says that you are actually cells are that of a 51 year old versus 36 years old, it's like, oh my God, I don't like what? That's crazy. What can I do about it?" "At the root of all infertility struggle is going to be some sort of microbial imbalance. There's going to be some sort of microbial imbalance and environmental toxic load.

Today, I sat down with Katie Lee - she is a dentist and an author (“Saved by the mouth”). The research supporting oral microbiome and fertility health is astounding. Countless patients who have been able to get pregnant after dealing with oral infections. Not to mention the association between oral care and complications during pregnancy and labor. You can’t have a healthy gut without a healthy mouth. And you can’t have a healthy uterus without a healthy gut. I hope you enjoy the conversion as much as I did. ========== STOP wasting time and grasping at straws.

The mouth has the second largest microbiome in the body. And when our body is chronically inflamed, the tissues in the mouth start to break down, and the bacteria that are there can leak into the gums, get into the bloodstream. And one of the places they love to go, unfortunately, is the female and male reproductive tracts." "We have five surfaces to our teeth. We have top, the chewing surface, the cheek, tongue, and then in between. In between the teeth is where we have the papillas or the gum tissue. That is where the blood supply is. Your toothbrush does not clean in between the teeth. So if you are only brushing and not flossing, you're cleaning three out of five surfaces and you're missing the two most important." "The most critical to all of this is making sure that you're using chemical free, non harsh, non toxic products. A lot of people are using the Colgate, the Crest, the Oral B, like all that stuff that's full of chemicals. We know that the mouth is really absorbent. If you're putting toothpaste in your mouth that's full of chemicals, sure you're spitting it out, but how much of that is absorbing into your system? Quite a bit."

If you are approaching 40 or over 40yo and you want to have a baby, I have a couple of very helpful tips for you as a naturopathic doctor and natural fertility expert. Having a baby in your 40s is not the same as having a baby in your 20s. And since time is not on your side, just trying things out and seeing what happens isn’t a good strategy. We can do better and in this episode I show you how you can set yourself up for success. ========== STOP wasting time and grasping at straws.

You are closer to menopause than you are to puberty, so things are working very differently in your 40s." "When you're over 40 trying to have a baby, don't do any guessing. You don't have time to struggle. I recommend doing thorough testing before even thinking about conceiving." "If you now decided you want to have a baby at 40, the responsible thing is to do some really thorough testing and get your partner involved from day one. Both of you need to have comprehensive testing done to optimize your chances."

I haven’t talked about Endometriosis for a while, so today I want to share with you what I have been learning about Endometriosis/adenomyosis from my mentor and how I have been approaching treatment with my patients.

"Your fertility is a reflection of your entire life. And truthfully, it's a reflection of your mom's health during pregnancy, your mom's and your dad's health, but your mom's health more so because you grew in her womb." "Even though approximately 1 in 10 women are struggling with endometriosis, not a single woman will express that disease in the same way. Some women will have tremendously painful periods where they cannot live without painkillers, while others will have very little pain."
