Your egg isn't fertilized! | How conception really starts 

Thank you, Fleur! Your description of a dance, of a conversation, was just so beautiful! 😍

Fascinating! It was quite recently that I learned that the egg must choose the right sperm. Incredible! Thanks for sharing! ❤

Conception is such a mystery, our ways of describing it tell more about the social norms than the process itself. Alchemists believed that the mother's role is minuscule, her womb is just fertile soil. If you leave sperm in rotten meat, a small human, homunculus, will develop, and famous medieval alchemists experimented with it. That's how unimportant mother was to them, she's just nourishing environment. This reminds me a lot about our modern ideas about "conquering" the egg in the battle or "raping" it with needles during ICSI.

Hi dear.. I have a baby girl through IVF after trying naturally for 7 years..though I went through the procedure and did all this research this information is enlightening.. ur content is amazing! great work!

This video is absolutely amazing!! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. I have learned so much from you. God bless you! ❤️

Hi Fleur! Thank you so much for this video! I never liked the idea of assistent fertility, and now I understand why I didn't feel it was good. My heart started beatting with joy when you talked about the dance between the egg and the sperm. Love from Argentina 💖 (Oh, and I love your pronunciation!)

OUCH!!! 😢 scary stuff and hey a lot of people it’s worked for. I’m still trying for natural, I just don’t have the funds, strength or emotions to go through IVF.

Wow I didn’t realize that ❤

God's amazing. Thank you for sharing.

me and my husband have been trying for 3 years, we have done EVERYTHING under the sun to get pregnant, we have bought the detox kits and homeopathic remedies from your website, we take the best supplements, we work every day on reducing stress, we have changed our diets. i think you get the picture.. we have done it all. (drinking bone broth, sleeping with eye mask, etc etc, everything) and so, we went to a clinic to get help. Turns out his sperm is of so poor quality (still!! after everything we have done) that we don't have another choice then ICSI.. this was extremely painful because my dream was to do all this the natural way, from beginning to end. and now, i feel like if we want to have a baby at all, we need to do this thing that is so far from natural, and i have had so much anxiety about this. and your video only reminded me of this.. it's so important to spread the word Fleur, but.. what if you don't have a choice? if ICSI is your only chance? How can one feel better about it, when it as, as you pointed out very unnatural...

This is really fascinating information and confirms how intelligent our bodies are!!! Also very important to build awareness and knowledge around ICSI. Thank you :)

So if you’ve been trying and have no underlying conditions does that mean spirituality a woman’s egg is rejecting that man?

Really interesting and enlightening! Up until maybe a year ago I was too busy with my life and too frightened of having a baby, and now finally, I'm ready. If it comes naturally - good, if it doesn't, also good. I won't do some artificial procedure instead of God's given process. I'm 45. :)

The egg chooses the sperm, they don’t choose each other. The egg has a million sperms to choose from, sometimes she’ll reject them all, sometimes she’ll choose one.

So how can someone produce the right chemical so the sperm and egg can choose each other? I'm sorry if this is a silly question...this is new to me.

And this is why not all eggs are fertilized and start developing with ICSI. The embryologist cannot choose the right mathing sperm only by its appearance. Sometimes the fertilization rate is quite low actually.

Thank you for posting this video. This is new information to me.

Thank you so much for this informative video. More people need to be aware of the truth of these intervention, so they can make an inform decision.

Thank you so much for sharing ! I hope more people know about it and edicate themselves. It was new information for me about chemicals „dance“. For me in school was shocking that mom and dad share genetic information 50/50. I was taught that „sperm keep genetic material and egg provides a safe place to keep and grow it.“ This just shows how popular are these ideas about „women fertilisation“ It is sad

We tried twice earlier this year, got pregnant and then miscarried, this is our second 2 week wait and I fear I'm struggling with anovulation post-miscarriage... could you do a video about this?

Hi Fleur! Thank you for all the great content. I was wondering if you could do a video about balancing hormones after having the Covid-19 virus? After some research I’ve learned a lot of women have had changes to their cycles (especially heavier periods with far more blood clots) after having the virus

Hi Doc! If a period cycle is 25-27 days, do ovulation still starts 14 days after or less?

Hi, I know this has nothing to do with this video, however, I started charting with vaginal BBT. Could you please make a video showing a chart using vaginal temperatures? I noticed it’s much more accurate for me doing vaginally then oral because I sleep with a mouth guard so my mouth stay kind of open. It would be really interesting to see vaginal bbt charts. Thank you!

Awesome 😊

Pls help about 🍇MOLER PREGNANCY!!!!

Hello i have a question. So i have been temping and this month has been a crazy chart. On cd 10 i had a tooth pulled and been on amoxicillin for an infection in my tooth. Will that give off a crazy chart and ff not sure when and if i did ovulate. I had a positive opk on cd 12.

I'm 29 ... decrease in discharge

This is interesting, but honestly some people are going to be quite offended by this, and I think rightfully so. Can we please remember the egg and sperm do not have 'feelings'. Some people have no choice but to use things like ICSI. In a post RvW world, this video irks me a bit. I know you said this was not a judgement video, but your tone towards the end suggested otherwise. Lastly, SOOO many aspects of medicine are 'unnatural' yet fantastic, and help people and save lives every day.

You are the most beautiful in the world. Love you

That looks and sound like IVF is rape of our poor egg sorry to say it like that I love your videos tho

Wow

You are absolutely adorable. :O)

This sounds a lil off. There's so much worry from the roe vs Wade when it comes to IVF. Is this where you're going with this? IVF is there to give people the option of having their own child right from the start who couldn't naturally, for a multitude of reasons. Having an issue with that not being natural is BS. There's plenty in our society that is not natural & manmade that we all are thankful for because it has made the impossible for some, possible. Let's be thankful & grateful it's there for those that need it.
