At Road to Fertility, we highlight that managing reproductive health begins with a deeper understanding of your body’s overall functionality. Our treatment programs are created to address insulin resistance, which plays a critical role in fertility. We use a functional and holistic approach, incorporating diet, lifestyle modifications, and medical interventions, to restore and improve your body’s insulin sensitivity and reproductive function.

What is Insulin Resistance?

Insulin resistance is a condition where the body’s cells do not respond effectively to insulin, the hormone responsible for managing blood sugar levels.

This can lead to higher levels of insulin and blood glucose as your body tries to balance it by producing more insulin. Over time, this can result in several health issues, such as hormonal imbalances and metabolic syndrome, potentially impacting your fertility.

How Insulin Resistance Causes Infertility

Insulin resistance can have a significant impact on fertility outcomes. In people with ovaries, disturbances in insulin sensitivity can lead to conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a prevalent disorder that affects female reproductive health. PCOS involves excess insulin, which can increase male hormones, creating hormonal imbalances that interfere with ovulation.

In those with testes, insulin resistance can impact reproductive health by disrupting hormone levels and reducing sperm quality, complicating the conception process. Additionally, insulin resistance is frequently connected to obesity, which can exacerbate fertility issues through hormonal and physical changes.

Symptoms of Insulin Resistance

Identifying the signs of insulin resistance can lead to prompt treatment from our team at Road to Fertility. Common indicators include:
  • Gaining weight, especially in your abdominal region,
  • Alterations in skin pigmentation, like dark patches (known medically as acanthosis nigricans),
  • Hypertension or feeling extremely tired,
  • Increased triglyceride levels (a type of blood fat) and difficulties in sugar metabolism, which may cause increased thirst or blurred vision.

These indicators are commonly associated with other health issues that can affect both your overall and reproductive health.

“Dr. Marina is an absolute gem of a fertility specialist! Her personalized approach to resolving my POS and weight loss issues was a game-changer for me. Her wealth of knowledge and expertise, coupled with her compassionate care, made all the difference. Thanks to her guidance and support, I was able to make significant progress in managing my PCOS symptoms and achieving a healthier weight.”

– Anna P

“My wife and I came to Dr. Yuabova Marina almost 4 years ago when we were having some difficulty conceiving. We didn’t come in with any expectations and didn’t think things would happen as quickly as they did. Dr. Marina identified certain hormonal imbalances, including issues related to insulin resistance, which she explained were contributing to our difficulty in conceiving. By managing these issues, she was able to restore my wife’s hormonal balance. In less than a month, we were pregnant with our first baby girl. Dr. Marina was kind, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain what was causing the issues we were dealing with. I recommend anyone facing the same challenges to come see Dr. Marina before taking any drastic steps.”

“I just have to share with you how Dr. Marina has completely changed my life. After going through Endometriosis surgery, and being placed on very harsh medication I came across of Dr. Marina’s webpage, the program is very involving, the diet itself is limiting, but results are amazing. After 7 months, my husband and I received the most amazing news – we’re expecting a baby! Dr. Marina has been with me every step of the way, ensuring that both me and the baby are healthy throughout the pregnancy and beyond. I won’t lie, this program takes commitment and hard work, but it’s worth it. I now have the tools and knowledge to live a healthy and vibrant life. Simply Thank you Dr. Marina”

What To Expect with Our Treatment Program in Boca Raton

During Your Initial Consultation

During the initial visit, Dr. Yuabova will hear your concerns, review your medical history, and, with your consent, perform a whole-body energy scan.

Her objective is to locate and treat the root cause using available diagnostic methods, guiding further testing to apply specific tests. Once the cause is identified, a complete blood panel will be collected, and treatment can start.

If you’re having trouble conceiving, there could be an underlying issue. Addressing this issue may improve your ability to conceive.

Every person’s treatment is individualized to address their unique findings.

During Your Follow-Up Appointments

Your treatment approach will be individualized and encompass a diverse set of methods. This might encompass nutritional therapy (oral or IV), neural therapy, herbs, minerals, peptides, coaching, educational sessions, and more. We provide continuous support to help you carry out your treatment plan effectively. Dr. Yuabova and her team will check on your progress every 2 to 4 weeks.

Functional reproductive medicine programs are typically designed to last 4 to 6 months, with adjustments as needed for each person.

Patients have the option of choosing telehealth or in-person visits at our Boca Raton clinic. This includes the initial consultation and any follow-up appointments. If blood work is necessary, we will refer you to a nearby functional lab where the blood tests can be conducted.
