In this episode, Dr. Lo sits down with Dr. Aumatma Simmons, double board-certified naturopathic endocrinologist and founder of Madre Fertility. Dr. Aumatma has helped hundreds of couples previously labeled “infertile” conceive naturally by focusing on root-cause restoration rather than expensive or invasive interventions. She recently delivered a TED Talk on the role safety plays in fertility: not just physical safety, but emotional, environmental, and physiological safety deep within the body.
Together, we explore why so many women today are being told their fertility “falls off a cliff” at 35 (spoiler: the science behind this is not what we’ve been led to believe), the role of the nervous system in reproduction, how toxins impact egg and sperm quality, and why the partner’s health matters just as much as your own. If you’re trying to conceive now or want to preserve your fertility for the future, this conversation will give you clarity, confidence, and hope.
About Dr. Aumatma Simmons:
Dr. Aumatma Simmons is a naturopathic endocrinologist specializing
in holistic fertility. She is the creator of the world’s first
smart fertility analysis system, Madre Fertility, a best-selling
author, and host of an award-winning podcast. She has trained
hundreds of physicians in her Fertile Systems Approach and supports
couples in conceiving naturally without unnecessary financial or
emotional strain.
What We Cover:
Why safety in the body is the
foundation of fertility
The truth about the “age 35
fertility cliff”
How burnout, overwork, and stress
signal to the body “now is not safe to reproduce”
What lab testing actually matters
when trying to conceive
Why egg quality can improve over
time (yes, really)
The rising decline in male
fertility and what’s driving it
When toxins and mold exposures are
playing a hidden role
Why IVF is sometimes recommended
simply because of age, not evidence
What it looks like to approach
fertility as a whole-body system, not a reproductive “issue”
Labs & Tools Discussed:
Full thyroid panel (including antibodies)
DUTCH test + Cycle Mapping
Vaginal microbiome testing
Nutrient & antioxidant panels
Mycotoxin + environmental toxin testing (case-by-case)
Nervous system retraining for
restoring “inner safety”
Key Takeaway:
Fertility is not just about ovaries, egg count, or age. It’s about
whether the body feels safe enough to prioritize reproduction. And
yes, fertility can be supported, restored, and even improved — at
any age.
