Dr. Sher spills the beans on the secrets to optimizing egg and embryo quality for the best shot at IVF pregnancy. No more one-size-fits-all – it's time to tailor the approach to each patient.

Dr. Sher breaks down the science: the two compartments of the ovary, the delicate dance of hormones, and why protocol customization is crucial. Too much or too little testosterone? It's all about finding that sweet spot for ideal follicle development.

A key takeaway? The "LH/hCG trigger" is a critical point in the IVF process, and protocol individualization is the secret sauce for success, especially for women with diminished ovarian reserve.

We also explore how Dr. Sher utilizes birth control pills, GnRH agonists, and antagonist switches to create the perfect recipe for success. Plus, he shares insights on estrogen priming for those with low ovarian reserve.

And here's the twist – Dr. Sher's groundbreaking approach extends to offering EZ-IVF, where low doses of gonadotropins are used every other day.
