There is a difference between fertility and birth rate. Fertility is the ability to have children and birth rate is whether people are having children are not despite whether they can or not. There is a distinct difference and they mean very different things
That's what I keep saying. It drives me crazy the way they use the terms as being the same thing. They are not.
Indeed, although with that said one does directly effect the other. Birth rate needs to be 2.1 minimum to maintain the population. Nearly every European country and the USA are below this.
None of my friends who had kids in their thirties waited because of their career. It was due to the high cost of living and the high cost of childcare
Why do you need childcare? 😂😂😂😂😂 Hello from Guatemala.
It's also the insane cost of living, I'm a millennial living in my parents basement. I never thought I would be in this situation. I am still praying for my future children. But I Have no idea how I am going to afford them.
I know men in their 30s, who never left home😢
At least, they're with DAD as well
I’m also a millennial. I have 3 degrees (I don’t think degrees are an indicator of intelligence) just something I’m pointing out in relation to COL.
And I also lived in a basement for 10 years. It created a lot of health issues for me that I didn’t realize affected me until I left.
I struggle just trying to support myself and saving what is needed for housing and retirement. So I completely agree with you that saving for kids, in addition, seems like an impossibility.
I knew this was going to happen. I retired from babysitting to have my own family 27 years ago. The big rage was to give your baby soy formula. They weren't allergic to anything ,mothers were just feeding their baby soy for no reason. When I went to the Farm and Ranch store they told me all the soy had to be taken out of the Sheep's food because they were having fertility problems. And the soy was taken out of the dog food because it was causing horrible skin problems. I would love to see a study on people who were breastfed instead of formula fed. Although I don't know that you could ever do this study because most people say oh yeah I breastfed and they only breastfed for 2 weeks when the baby was born and then switch them to formula. Formula was not created to substitute breast milk it was created to keep babies alive when there was a horrible problem happening .I'm thankful we have formula today but I think it's really being overused. And I do believe there will be consequences.
I think most women would have preferred to breastfeed but struggle to produce for various reasons on top of trying to recover and adjust to a new baby in the home.
@@bres9977it’s also education and the desire to
I was formula fed because my mother couldn't breastfeed and wonder if it's had any bad effects 😬
Soy has been used heavily in Asia for how long?
Thalidomide can be used for lots of things just not with efficacy for anything but deformity
I have eight. When I had five, people said I was crazy. When my sixth came, they said I had a basketball team, my seventh was.... more than half a dozen. Just had my eighth, and now they are saying to have another cause "what do you have to lose?" I didn't have fertility treatments, and planning my pregnancies was never timely (would have had them 1-2 years apart). Rearing isn't too hard, definitely, not easy. Our lives are 100% dedicated to our kids. Most of our income are for essentials (Costco) and 90% home cooked meals. Kids also prefer home cooked meals as well, so much better on the tummy and also cause we know what goes into the food. We don't depend on the government, own expensive gadgets, or go on expensive trips (we have one TV, in our living room - that's it). I tell those who think I'm crazy that I'm raising my kids to contribute to the economy that will fund their retired income and health care benefits. 😂😅😊❤
gross. based on your picture, your kids are no doubt all half bIoods because you people are here to make us all halfs.
I'm pregnant with my fourth baby due this weekend. My husband just asked if I'm ready for another one lol. I'll have more. I do get comments and the question, "Are you done?" I joked a few years back that I'd have all ten of my husband's babies.
Congratulations on your ninth baby!
You had a basketball team at 5! (We're welcoming #6 this spring.)
Also, that is a wonderful way of putting things, regarding your children being raised to be productive members of society.❤
I have eight as well.
Now that I'm 49, I'm pretty sure we're done.
But i started out diagnosed with PCOS, told I'd likely have none.
I changed my diet, cleansed, got pregnant.
Now though i think many things contribute to infertility. Toxins, injections, certain dietary habits...many possible hormonal imbalances.
Congratulations! You should have more kids!
Most men today have suboptimal levels of testosterone - a lot less than their fathers or grandfathers had just 30-50 years ago. There are various reasons for this. One factor that is oftentimes neglected is endocrine disruptors in our environment (i.e., xenoestrogens, BPA, phthalates, triclosan, etc.), phytoestrogens in food (i.e., soy, which is in almost all processed foods), and hypothyroidism (subclinical or autoimmune Hashimoto's disease).
To increase testosterone levels naturally and reduce chronic inflammation:
• Enough daily sunlight.
• Vitamin D3 (especially during the winter or if you live in a northern climate).
• Zinc picolinate (20-40 mg per day).
• Magnesium glycinate/citrate.
• Resistance training (3-5 times per week for 45-90 minutes max).
• Adequate neuromuscular recovery (e.g., don't overtrain).
• Adequate (quality) sleep.
• More healthy fats (monounsaturated and saturated fats from sources like grass-fed red meat, pasture-raised eggs, fatty fish, organic full-fat dairy, coconut fat, avocados, cocoa butter, certain nuts and seeds, etc.).
• Increase dietary cholesterol intake through nutrient-dense, whole foods. Cholesterol is the building block of all steroid hormones, including androgens such as testosterone.
• Manage stress. Do what you have to do to keep it under control (i.e., meditation, yoga, nature walks, relaxing music, massage/reflexology sessions, adaptogenic herbs, etc.).
• Chronically elevated cortisol levels disrupt the HPT (hypothalamus-pituitary-testicles) axis and deplete your body of the very resources it needs to produce androgens like testosterone and DHT.
• Eat enough quality calories (not all calories are the same).
• Avoid large or prolonged caloric deficits.
• Eat adequate amounts of each macronutrient (e.g., protein, carbs, fats). All of them are important in their own way and serve specific physiological functions.
Beneficial Supplements:
• Shilajit
• Ashwagandha
• Maca
• Taurine
• L-Carnitine (increases androgen receptor density)
• Creatine
• Tongkat ali
• Fadogia agrestis
• Black ginger
• Pine pollen (contains natural androgens)
• Boron (increases free testosterone)
• DIM (natural anti-estrogen)
"The Testosterone Advantage" by Timotheus Ray is a nice read on male health / hormone optimization.

With all that you need a channel here on YT . ❤
Actually it is far simpler than that. Most men in America are addicted or have a troubled relationship with pornography. And the activity that goes along with viewing such explicit content. That destroys sperm count, and also can lead to different forms of erectile dysfunction.
Thank you❤
I have a question I see L carnitine is on the list I’m a woman is CLA ok ?
Inflation and the high cost of living are the blame.
Yes! It sucks to listen to this and have someone lecture us on changing our minds about having kids earlier. I would’ve loved to have kids earlier but my husband and I couldn’t afford it until I was in my early 30s
People did just fine with much, much less. Do everything you can to cut costs. IF you want children it’s absolutely worth it.
They did fine with much much less because the cost of living was much much less.
Stress is a huge factor too
I'm going to be 35 this year. Even though I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's when I was 15 I am now pregnant with my 5th child. Gave birth to my first when I was 23. Have never ever been on any form of contraception. Every time I got pregnant we have conceived first month of trying. I've always been trying to take care of my fertility not decrease it. Unfortunately it seems that people today are doing the opposite, hence the problem. Greetings from Poland 🙂
I think as a little girl I already had PCOS. My mom fed me the standard American diet (she did the best she could as a working parent) and I was on birth control for 10 years. I became a mother late in life and I agree with everything Dr. Axe has said. My life has completely changed after my son and I would do things a lot differently had I been educated. Everything from diet to family planning I self-educated myself and Dr. Axe has been an important part of my healing journey.
Could have something to do with a certain injection most people took??
Like YES🙄
However, not all vax, are the same: it could be the way it was given, or the brand of vax
I know RNs with no problems, but they know a few with major problems from it
Well… you have a point but I think it’s food and environment . Periods start earlier my niece
Was 10 ! That’s crazy and now she has PCOS at 12 .. insulin issues are huge with little girls now !
I didn't get "shot". My girl is 5 months now🤱🏼💕 Got pregnant at the first try. No complications. But I worry when I'll get my period again
Had 2 babies without issues in fact the first one was a surprise, 2015 than again 2018.. now dealing with infertility. I have a feeling it’s even worse after the latest “thing” came out! Definitely alarming
Same boat, same years ( 2015 and 2018), same issues here too!
@@LeeAnnahsCreations I’m so sorry , secondary infertility is so hard too! We actually have conceived once in Oct/2022 but it ended up in a ruptured ectopic.
@@Rebeka-ij1lk I lost a baby in 2019 at 13 weeks.... with several miscarriages after
@@LeeAnnahsCreationsMy heart goes out to you ❤❤
If it's hormonal, Zhenoluten (ovaries), Glandokort (adrenal), and Thyreogen (thyroid) might help. They are natural cell signaling peptides. The downside is they're pricey, but you only use them for a short time. Nat Niddam talks a bit about it.
A major reason women wait to have children until later is so they can build their career and be able to AFFORD them. Raising a child 30+ years ago was cheaper. Now everything is expensive, including daycare (which isn’t available on weekends for parents who also work weekends). It’s not worth doing unless you can afford it. No there is no perfect time to have a baby but there certainly is a better time.
Yes!!! Kids are most definitely the greatest blessing in my life (along with my husband!). But kids are also the single most costly thing in my life. Easily, and by FAR. In money, in time, in emotion…all of it. This is why people get scared to have them.
ECONOMICS is not family friendly. In fact, the complete opposite.
But Christians know Jesus is coming soon, and a better world.
So be brave, and have kids. They’ll remind you why adults need to become more like little children.
❤️❤️❤️
Mother of 5 here, and they were all born between my age 35 and late 45.
A British physicist named Barrie Tower wrote a paper titled "The Cooking of Humanity" back in 2013, saying that the effects of microwaves on human health by exposing them to various frequencies can sterilize them, particularly, 2.4 gigahertz (GHz). At that time, this was the same frequency used in Western countries for cellphone service. He said: "It's estimated that over two or three generations of exposure, ongoing exposure to the same cellphone radiation that we're using now, we will all be sterile and we will basically die out as a species". And Dr Axe pulled my last comment that I posted. Keep learning folks!
Are you sure it wasn't yt and not Dr Axe?
Our society (US &Can) is not conducive to babymaking. Our society sees having babies as something that holds you back. Its all about money now. And everything is expensive.
The BC Pill components go right into the water supply. I lived in DC for 35 years and saw the rise of gender dysphoria problems locally and ended up with an estrogen-driven endocrine cancer myself, though I wasn’t taking hormones and was 25 years post-total hysterectomy.
Woman are having children later because we are struggling to find a husband
And the cost of living is high
Is their relation to this from the COVID shot studies show that after the covid shot was given birth rates and and miscarriages increased by incredible numbers?
Thank you so much Dr Axe for talking about this! I’ve been following you for years. I’m really grateful for your transparency in the topics you’ve been covering. Your website is always my first go to when I’m looking to do research on taking a new supplement. Please continue the great work you’re doing!!!!
I think you should start this video off by defining infertility
What I don't understand is that we have so much research for men' s health regarding their reproductive system yet only very recently have women's health issues have been addressed
How many types of contraceptives are available for women that does not involve the introduction of artificial hormones or painful procedures where little to no pain meds are offered ? There are solutions for low testosterone levels but what is there women?
Thanks for this information.
I wanted more kids. I would have had more if I got married younger. I have four and I love them and they are a blessing. Thankfully, I didn’t have fertility issues. I did have my first at 27 and my last at 40.
Thank you for sharing your story! God bless you and your family 🙏
Hey ! I’m 31 and with none! 🥹 I want 5.
Gives me some hope. I’m 35 and I don’t want to go modern medical route because they will treat me differently because I’m “older” smh among other scary tactics
I, too, would have had more children if I had married earlier. I was almost 35 when I had my first child, 38, with my second and 42 with my last. I have been very blessed. No trouble carrying them. I only took birth control for 6 months in my lifetime. We chose to take more natural precautions.
I am married and INVOLUNTARILY childfree. Multiple failed IUIs and IVF attempts. Gambled away 21k on fertility treatments with nothing to show for it. Started fertility journey with 1st clomid cycle right after turning 29… (I have never been on birth control)
I tried to get pregnant immediately and tracked my ovulations after getting married at 28.
We know what is causing this plummeting..
Great video Josh! I wonder how many will feel uncomfortable with this. What I do find strange is that John Hopkins is deep in all of this! They have been involved in our local hospital in Southampton UK, investing and they follow very agenda driven research and ignore this information Josh!!
We all know it is and we deserve what is coming to us for what we’ve done to the environment and the animals we share it with. At my age now I’m not alarmed and we need to face the music.
Natural Family Planning is what we have practiced since we started having kids. Absolutely no birth control here!
Same. Didn't have premarital sex and refused BC for acne. Have been using nfp for a decade and have 3 kids. Would love to have more, but the cost of health insurance is killing us (and hubby's physical therapy doctorate debt). We were making it by using a healthshare instead, but doesn't seem long term sustainable.
I have Hashimotos which tends to lower fertility but hasn't happened to me (but eat gf, df and use clean products. )
Same! It worked really well. I happened to get sick last September and didn’t realize that my cycle was affected until too late 😅 now we have a baby boy coming in June 😂
does nfp work for planning children? I am scared, to be honest, but I still refuse to take birth control. I just want reassurance from other couples that practice it (what model do you use if you dont mind answering)
@@eatsalad728yes it does! Look into the Marquette method . You can get an instructor to teach you. You use the clear blue fertility monitor and it’s very easy and clear cut.
@@eatsalad728it does! When you are properly educated on the practice and understanding your body, it is effective.
This was fantastic 🙌🏻👍
I'm 30. Never went on birth control because my family has a history blood clots. Planned my pregnancies. However, I know of at least 10 acquaintances who had to do fertility/IVF. All of the women, every single one of them, were on birth control or were very overweight or both.
Thank you Dr Axe
Mabuhay! From the Philippine Islands. Thanks so much.
I've read over the counter pain relievers like ibuprofen decreases fertility in men & women. I can believe this. I grew up in a family that didn't take anything when we were sick or in pain. Grandmother is 1 of 10 kids, my mother is 1 of 7, my older sister had 8. Though I only had 2 (husbands vasectomy), I probably could have had more. And Grandmother's family couldn't afford junk food or fast food, so they had less chemicals.
It’s more food and environment but yes pain meds are part of it
Thank you!
Anyone mentioned that new meds were "taken" by millions of people in the last few years.
The fact that people are eating junk food, prepackaged foods... very few people are farming now. And if they do farm, they are spraying toxic materials like crazy on what is grown.
Yep
@@Kwildcat13 Plus whatever is sprayed on the crops turns into a gas in the air ( at a very low temp, does Not need to be 99 degrees) and contaminates the neighbors crops and soil.
It's the medication in the water supply.
Unfortunately it has a lot to do with the shots people have been taking the last 3-4 years..
All I can say is, the audacity my daughter's NICU doc had when he asked me if I was going to have more. Literally 6 hours after I just had a c-section and I was running on morphine fumes to go and see her. Like, my guy, now is NOT the time to ask any new mom if she wants more..
I had 2 healthy babies after 40 with the lowest dose of clomid, got pregnant the first month trying after struggling with infertility my whole marriage. The difference? I completely detox my body, went holistic and followed MD, ND and chiro like Dr. Axe.
My theory: Instability in our country: Job Security, Financial Security, Housing, Rising Cost of Living. I waited until 32 to get married due to college and then mental health issues. I had one and that was all my mental health could handle. We worry every, EVERY day about my husband's job security and the rising cost of living. The government could help these issues.
The world is scary I don’t want my kids to grow up here
The world is amazing. ❤
There are a small minority pushing an evil agenda who are absolutely terrifying 😳😬
Thank you CVAX, Baby IVF Human Robot, 23 Sentry starting .
Whats your opinion on oxalates? Maybe do a video about that?
Yes
This is great news for the environment - more habitat for other species, less pollution, less co2, more affordable housing and an overall improved environment. Breeding is selfish.
We have been very blessed. We have 9 children, 7 earth side 1 in the womb. I haven't always had the best diet so I count it as a blessing that so far we have only had one miscarriage. We are trying to change your lifestyle and grow and raise most of our own food. I actually feel guilty being pregnant and eating food bought at the grocery store because I feel like I'm playing Russian roulette with my baby. Hoping it won't be too much longer that I have to feed my children toxic food. I'm just praying that their fertility has not been impacted.
Did you not consider the environmental impact before having so many kids?
Choice.. I know a large portion of individuals between the age of 25 and 40 who are partners and are married and have chosen not to have children due to the environmental impact and dangerous environment that they believe they live in in the United States. That's something that you're not talking about choice not to have children
Environmental impact. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 STOP IT !!!! Hahaha
Correct, they're not talking about people and their choices. They're talking about those that are infertile. Two entirely different subjects.
The air is cleaner In the US, than it used to be..before 1970
What could be happening, are the plastics we use
I believe It’s also the high cost of living. The states that have the lowest rates of fertility just so happen to be the highest cost to live.
Do you suppose that fresh produce was intentially modified to look like internal organs & other body parts?
Could it be that thing that so many people took but don’t want to discuss? Plus all the other pills, potions, weed, etc.
The jabbies!!!!
Yes it’s hindering even those of us that didn’t take it! 😢
Plastics in the environment have a great negative effect on our health. And so much more.
@@Rebeka-ij1lkwell I think it is a number of different things than just the pokes, but they are definitely affecting many of those that took it, along with other ones like the H P V. I have iatrogenic injuries from the flu shot.
@@ofearthseasky The H P V was the worst before this latest one. These inventors need to be locked up.
I had this surgery called a vasectomy in 2008. Now all the women I have slept with can’t seem to get pregnant. What happened?!?!?
Environmental factors causing cancer and the cancer treatments causing infertility that's my issues. No one is addressing the environmental factors :(
Dr Axe, what about soy? It’s in everything from sauces to protein bars??? Depleting T???
Yes, I wish I had kids earlier and that I had more kids. Children are a blessing from the Lord.
I don’t think people can be thinking about raising a family in this economy…
And the upcoming catastrophic climate change previsions!
Iodine defiency, mineral defiency, excess estrogen look into that seriously
How do you treat menstrual disorders?
Can GMO reproduce? What are we eating?
They don’t demand it because it’s by design!!!!
Environmental toxins …. Your bodies are definitely overwhelms. Our systems can’t handle the amount of toxins and it can’t detox naturally, so I’ve actually been taking the organic super greens to detox …. I seriously feel my kidneys struggling because I probably have such a high toxin build up in my organs.
Marquette Method of NFP ❤
Never took contraception pill, I still had infertility. After a surgery due to fibroids and endometriosis, I had a baby but then had a miscarriage.
Elephant in the room. Elephant caused issues with periods?
Lots of couples are choosing not to have kids. The couples that do have kids don’t have enough to compensate.
You'd have to be naive and rather egocentric to voluntarily want to add more innocent human beings into this massively overpopulated planet with rapidly depleting resources and catastrophic climate change previsions. Livin' n' lovin' the childfree life!
This saddens me
What do bananas support based on their shape?
😂
North Dakota is the only state from these two maps that increases their fertility rate… they are also the only state that didn’t shut down and require the 💉 to live a normal life….
The 1st point about women getting pregnant later (5 yrs,, really not a big deal) ... You never mentioned anything about marital stats. I would posit the reason being that decision is being put off till after planning for the family event. Besides men are not as quick to propose, as they once were (for a variety of reasons).
A reasoning woman may decide to wait for marriage 🤔 ... What a concept!
Also, those hormonal interventions in birth control are not the only sourse of hormonal mischief ... See Drs. Seaman's (husband/wife team) book from the '70's called, "Women and the Crisis in Sex Hormones"! Three pages into that book and my birth control pills found their way into the trash!!! Alarming exposé about the bombardment of hormones, especially in our meats, as hormones made livestock put on weight much faster and in excess. At the time the book was written, I was a vegetarian, but it was the practice of the meat industry to stop giving livestock the hormones (a mere 3 days) prior to slaughter, and have it declared "hormone free".
The games that are played in food and pharmaceuticals is a huge culprit in my humble opinion.
I’m 34 been trying for 5 yrs I’m over it😂
Elites
I’m the 7th of 9 kids and my parents are immigrants and we made it just fine!
It is not necessarily modern life. It is done by design.
Vaccinations are strangely correlated to infertility. And the smarter people know that it's not a bizarre coincidence, but rather by design. The explanation to that would be a long story.
doctors are baffled
They know ! They push the SAD diet
My fertility is extremely strong but I don't won't children because my awareness of how screwed up this world is even stronger, I'm not bringing no child into this world to be tax slaves, possibly fall under the influence of the various entities pushing their backwards ways, to be prey to various evil people, to argue &/or try to meet some compromise with their mother on how I desire "my seed" to be raised.... But I do think children are a blessing, they're just a blessing I don't desire.
The miscarriage rate climbed to 30% in 2018, and is climbing at one percent a year. Estimates predicted by 2038 will be at 50%. Her data is outdated.
Most research shows that waiting until thirty to have children means a woman is 50% likely to remain childless. If she waits till 30 to have a child, having a baby becomes much less likely.
So if you’re in your 20s, you should really think about having a family. Don’t put it off.
But you shouldn't bring a child into the world that you can't afford, if you can help it
I think most women want to maintain their independence and enjoy travel and friends rather than be burdened with the unrelenting drudgery of childrearing and teaching kids how to survive in a dying planet. Breeding is selfish.

Children are not worth it. I don't envy people who have children. They are always asking for help because they are struggling really bad.
We must speak more clearly about sexuality, contraception, about abortion, about values that control population, because the ecological crisis, in short, is the population crisis. Cut the population by 90% and there aren't enough people left to do a great deal of ecological damage.

It's the economy. Procreation has become unaffordable. Not only that. A man needs to make 100k+ a year to attract a female also there is a 6ft height requirement.
“Jewish or Christian or something close to that” 😂 it’s okay to say the word Muslim Doc
You got a lot of Muslim fans (myself included 😊)

My theory: feminism, materialism, and bad diet.
Agreed !
Plastics!
That is it. Plastics.

A man telling me whether I should or shouldn't have a baby resonates like congress telling me how to balance my budget.
Thats what you took away from this? Oye!
“Whether you’re a Jewish, a Christian or something close to that” it’s called Muslim.. the “something close to that.”..
Anyways, great content doc!
