What is Insulin Resistance?
Insulin resistance is a metabolic condition that occurs when the body’s cells no longer respond properly to insulin, the hormone responsible for managing how sugar is absorbed from the bloodstream into the cells. As a result, the body reacts by producing more insulin than normal, causing both blood glucose and insulin levels to rise. This prolonged imbalance can contribute to serious health challenges, such as hormone disruption and the onset of metabolic syndrome, which may interfere with reproductive function and reduce fertility.

How Insulin Resistance Causes Infertility
When the body struggles to respond effectively to insulin, it can negatively impact reproductive health in meaningful ways. For those with ovaries, insulin imbalance is often a key factor in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a common hormonal condition that interferes with fertility. Elevated insulin levels in PCOS can trigger the excess production of androgens, disrupting the natural hormonal rhythm needed for regular ovulation.
For those with testes, insulin resistance can disturb the endocrine system, leading to decreased testosterone levels and poor sperm parameters. Being overweight, which is commonly seen in insulin-resistant individuals, can also heighten fertility concerns by creating both hormonal shifts and structural challenges.
Symptoms of Insulin Resistance
- Sudden or gradual weight gain that tends to gather around the midsection and lower abdomen
- Noticeable changes in skin tone or texture, including velvety, darker patches called acanthosis nigricans
- Ongoing fatigue or low energy levels, and consistently elevated blood pressure readings
- High triglyceride counts, along with issues managing blood sugar, which might show up as excessive thirst or occasional blurred vision

Meet Your Doctor: Dr. Yuabova Marina
What To Expect with Our Treatment Program
During Your Initial Consultation
During your first consultation, Dr. Yuabova will take a deep dive into your health story by thoroughly examining your medical background and, with your consent, conducting a comprehensive energy scan of your body.
Her goal is to identify the underlying reasons for your fertility challenges by using the most effective diagnostic methods available. This methodical approach helps direct any further testing to the areas where it’s truly needed. After isolating the root cause, a complete blood panel will be ordered to support the diagnosis with clinical data and guide your treatment moving forward.
Fertility struggles are often a symptom of something deeper, rather than the primary issue. By pinpointing and correcting that internal imbalance, your body’s ability to conceive may be naturally restored.
The treatment you receive will be entirely personalized, based on the results of your initial visit and tailored specifically to your individual needs.
During Your Follow-Up Appointments
Your individualized treatment plan will be crafted to reflect your specific health needs, incorporating a variety of integrative therapies aimed at restoring balance and supporting fertility. These may include nutritional supplementation administered orally or through IV infusions, botanical medicine, neural therapy, targeted peptide protocols, vital mineral support, customized health coaching, and ongoing educational resources. As you move forward, our team will provide consistent support to help you remain focused and on track.
Dr. Yuabova and her experienced team will connect with you every two to four weeks to review your progress, modify your plan as needed, and confirm that the chosen therapies are delivering positive results.
Most individuals complete their comprehensive functional reproductive medicine plan within a span of four to six months, though this timeframe can vary depending on how your body responds and the complexity of your condition.
