What is Functional Medicine For Fertility?
Functional medicine takes a whole-body approach to dealing with fertility problems. Instead of just treating symptoms, it aims to find and fix the main cause of fertility issues. Often, this cause is an underlying health problem that needs to be treated before getting pregnant becomes possible.
At Road to Fertility, we adopt a holistic approach, considering you as a whole person rather than just addressing individual symptoms. This helps us support you in achieving optimal reproductive health.

What To Expect with Our Concierge Medicine
During Your Initial Consultation
In your first consultation, Dr. Yuabova will attentively listen to your concerns, gather your medical history, and perform a whole-body energy scan with your permission.
Dr. Yuabova aims to identify and resolve the underlying cause of the issue. She employs advanced functional medicine testing and diagnostic techniques to tailor a fertility treatment plan to your individual needs.
Any challenges with conception usually indicate an underlying problem. Therefore, it’s essential to uncover and tackle this issue to potentially enhance your ability to get pregnant.
Every individual’s treatment varies and is tailored to your specific needs and findings.
During Your Follow-Up Appointments
Your personalized treatment plan will incorporate various approaches, such as nutritional therapy (oral or IV), neural therapy, herbs, minerals, peptides, coaching, and education. We also offer continuous support to help you follow your treatment plan effectively. Dr. Yuabova and her team will provide regular check-ins every 2 to 4 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does functional medicine approach fertility differently from traditional medicine?
Functional medicine treatment considers the entire person, not just symptoms, addressing various factors like hormonal imbalances, stress hormones, nutrition, and underlying health conditions such as thyroid disease, and ovarian health. The aim is to tackle infertility by identifying and treating its root cause.
Traditional medicine often targets a single symptom without considering underlying causes such as health conditions, hormonal imbalances, or lifestyle factors.
What kinds of tests are typically done in functional medicine for fertility?
Functional medicine for fertility in both women and men often involves specialized tests, such as hormone panels via bloodwork, nutritional assessments, and gut health evaluations. The aim is to understand the individual’s overall health and identify the causes of fertility issues.
Is functional medicine a replacement for conventional fertility treatments?
Functional medicine aims to identify and address underlying health conditions causing fertility issues. Once identified, treatment can start. Restoring optimal health makes natural pregnancy more likely, though some may find success with IVF after a functional medicine approach.
How long does it typically take to see results with functional medicine for fertility?
The timeframe varies for each individual, but most clients undergo our treatments for 4 to 6 months or longer.
What types of fertility treatments do you offer in Nevada?
