  • Looking beyond symptoms and approaching the real causes with healthier, natural methods. It's time we treat the causes of infertility.
    Dr. Kathryn A. Karges is an obstetrician and gynecologist at CHI St. Luke’s Caritas Women’s Care in Sugar Land, Texas. She treats a variety of women’s health conditions and provides both routine and high-risk obstetrical care. She especially enjoys working with couples who seek to utilize a natural approach to managing fertility and health.
    Following medical school at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore, Dr. Karges completed her residency training in obstetrics and gynecology at the Methodist Hospital in Houston. She then completed a fellowship in medical and surgical NaProTECHNOLOGY® under Dr. Thomas Hilgers, with a special emphasis on helping couples who have difficulty conceiving. She is one of only a handful of physicians in the United States with this training.
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    We have Dr. Karges to thank for our 2 babies!! We tracked cycles, did surgery, medications, etc. and isolated the root causes of our fertility issues. The methods worked for us. Add to it, Dr. Karges and her team of professionals were incredibly caring and loving all the way through.

    Wonderful video full of intense TRUTH! I'm a user and practitioner of the system. Off the record, I'll say that it's also a painful form of infertility, when your physical fertility is good and well but you are still single and in the premenopausal category. I really don't worry about that though because perhaps I'm call to adopt, which is JUST as much a gift!....but the partnership. And the lack of it, is a form of infertility that many don't get. Please pray for those of us in this department. Thank you. And keep up the blessed, most important work! Godspeed

    I wish every doctor would treat their patients like you do. With love and curiosity and passion. Thank you for taking a step further and for making us feel like holistic humans and not just putting bandaids on our pain.

    This is my doctor and she is the truth. After 16 years of infertility, PCOS, and one failed IUI; she helped us conceive naturally after 3 1/2 months of treatment. Natural supplements along with Metformin.

    I honestly do like TED talks. They are motivating and very encouraging. Understanding that it is people who have gone through such issues. Real life problems explained by people who have overcome the monster. Ma touched by this story. Women do go through a lot as far as infertility is concerned. I have a number of friends who have been through the same. Also during my medication in Bio tex clinic I got to meet many people. Listening their stories is such an eye opener. You understand that there are people who are going through worse situation than yours and that encourages you. Nothing is too bad. There is always a solution at the end of the day. It just depends with how you will focus on finding the solution. I hope others will learn a lot through this.

    Seems to me that diet is the biggest factor in infertility with 'normal' people. Eat only vital foods,… emphasis on raw as much as practical/acceptable. Eating rather simply within that frame. Not eating 'low vitality' foods such as 'white flour products', 'white rice',… and various 'junk-processed' foods of many kinds. If you consume milk, go with raw and/or non-homogenized(if pasteurized), and eat cheese, eggs, raw greens (lettuce, parsley,…), meat/flesh, fresh fruit,… and some beer(non filtered hefeweizen being preferable), salt, herbs,...

      Na, it's more. STDs, multiple partners - womb confusion syndrome, etc. Many people get pregnant on a diet of McDonalds, weed and beer. Also, waiting too long to conceive, contraceptive use, etc. Multi-factorial.

    So where IS the cycle broken? Why are men and women beginning to experience less fertility?
    I feel like it’s stress and some parts diet.

    That's positive, but how much of that 15% infertility could be rectified? Almost all?

    I’m 40 and pregnant with my 4th. I’ve conceived each child in one cycle. No miscarriages, no struggles with fertility. I’ll tell you what I do and don’t do:
    I DON’T use hormonal birth control. Never. Not once in 11 years of marriage or any time before that. I don’t mess with my hormones.
    I don’t drink alcohol. Never have. Don’t smoke. Never have. Don’t do drugs. Never have.
    I avoid soy like nobody’s business. I consume little sugar and processed food.
    I exercise and keep my weight down.

      It is not that easy even if you do all of that...there is no rule...

    • @ninafarray8937
      @ninafarray8937 2 года назад +2

      There is certainly no rule because I did many on her list and still had the same outcome: 4 healthy pregnancies to term with normal midwife assisted births, all conceived within one cycle of trying and my last at 40... I count my blessings daily that I didn't suffer in that category and I have great compassion for those that do not have it easy in this department because its just not that simple for everyone ❤ 🙏🏼 Peace and love to All.
