In this eye-opening episode of Fertile Talks, Dr. Famuyiwa welcomes thyroid specialist Dr. Dana Gibbs to explore how undiagnosed or mismanaged thyroid conditions—especially Hashimoto’s thyroiditis—can quietly sabotage fertility.

Together, they discuss why traditional thyroid labs like TSH and T4 may not tell the whole story, the importance of balancing T3 and reverse T3, and how even “normal” thyroid levels can lead to fatigue, miscarriage, and hormonal imbalance. Dr. Gibbs shares powerful case studies and explains how detailed thyroid testing and targeted treatment can dramatically improve fertility outcomes—even after repeated losses.

If you’ve been told your thyroid labs are “fine” but something still feels off, this episode will give you the deeper insight and tools you need to advocate for better thyroid and reproductive care.
