Your Journey To Holding Your Baby Begins Here

A Proven, Root-Cause Approach to Help You Bring Home Your Baby


You’ve dreamed of this moment for so long - the tiny kicks, the first heartbeat on the monitor, the overwhelming joy of holding your baby for the very first time. But instead, you’ve been met with disappointment, confusion, and a medical system that tells you to “just keep trying” or "wait and see" or jump straight to treatment without understanding why your body isn't conceiving.

At The Functional Fertility Clinic, we specialize in uncovering the root causes that impact fertility - metabolic, mitochondrial, and gut health, inflammation, nutrient status, and more. Our BabyReady™ Method is designed to optimize your body for conception, whether you're preparing for IVF or trying to conceive naturally.

If you're working with a traditional fertility clinic, our care integrates seamlessly with their protocols - enhancing treatment outcomes. No matter your path, you're met with personalized, evidence-informed care that empowers you with clarity, confidence, and next steps you can trust.

The BabyReady™ Method is a high-touch, personalized program designed to take you from uncertainty to clarity, from overwhelm to confidence, and on to the path to holding your baby.


Let's be clear about something upfront. This is NOT an online program, a fertility course, or a set of generic protocols. This is a concierge-level, clinical fertility method run by experts with decades of experience in complex cases. Our practitioners spend dozens of hours on every case, run advanced functional tests most clinics never order, and walk you step-by-step through your plan - leaving no stone unturned. This is why clients who've spent months or years and a lot of money getting nowhere finally get clarity - and go on to bring home their baby.

01

We Identify What Everyone Else Misses

Most women and couples come to us after years of being told "everything looks normal", "you're getting older", or "just keep trying". And yet, they're still not pregnant. Here's the truth: Most fertility workups only cover about 15% of what actually impacts conception. We run advanced functional testing that reveals issues your clinic simply isn't trained or staffed to investigate.....things like:

  • subclinical thyroid dysfunction
  • hidden inflammation
  • micronutrient deficiencies that don't show up on basic labs
  • microbiome imbalances
  • liver & detoxification impairment
  • mitochondrial dysfunction
  • hormone pathway slowdowns blood tests cannot show

No guessing. No generic advice. Actual answers.

02

Continuous Guidance & Expert Monitoring

Your Practitioner doesn't hand you a protocol and disappear. You're walked through every phase of your journey with clinical-level, concierge support.

That means:

  • ongoing review of your symptoms and progress
  • frequent protocol adjustments to ensure your plan works for your life
  • guidance through setbacks, cycle changes, and new lab data
  • support that integrates seamlessly with your IVF clinic (if you're working with one)

This isn't a "check in when you need us" or "here you go, good luck!" method.

This is active, expert oversight from a team that specializes in getting you to a successful pregnancy - even when nothing else has worked.

What We Do Differently

The BabyReady™ Method


Our proven method and expert team work with you to get to the root cause of your infertility issues to prepare for a successful IVF cycle or natural pregnancy. Here's what we do differently so you can finally get the answers you deeply deserve.

You Get a Personalized, Step-by-Step Plan

Your body has unique needs and your fertility plan should match them. We build a custom roadmap that supports egg quality, sperm quality, implantation, cycle health, digestion, detoxification, nutrient repletion, and nervous-system balance.

Everything is clear, structured, and tailored to your labs, symptoms, and timeline.

We Help Your Body Handle Stress Biochemically

You'll never remove all stress from your life, but you can change how your body responds to it. Chronic stress alters inflammation, hormones, blood sugar, gut function, and the nervous system - all of which directly impact fertility.

We identify how stress is affecting you biochemically in our labs and then support your body with targeted nutrition and supplementation to support cellular stress resilience.

The Four Phases

The BabyReady™ Method


A science-backed, non-drug approach to getting your body ready for pregnancy - naturally or alongside fertility treatments. Every couple's path to pregnancy is unique, which is why this method is personalized to your individual biochemistry. We use advanced functional testing to uncover what your body specifically needs to conceive - and then guide you through targeted nutrition, strategic supplementation, and lifestyle shifts that restore fertility at a cellular level.

Phase One

Fertility Furnace

Ignite your body's reproductive power

We start by uncovering the hidden metabolic and hormonal imbalances that quietly block conception. This is where your thyroid, mitochondria, and energy systems get reignited so your body feels safe and capable of sustaining new life.

  • Identify sluggish thyroid or low-progesterone patterns
  • Rebuild mitochondrial energy for egg and sperm quality
  • Stabilize blood sugar and hormone communication
  • Replenish key nutrients that drive conception
Phase Two

Toxin Flush

Clear what’s clogging your fertility pathways.

Before your body can thrive, it has to drain and detox effectively. We open drainage pathways (gut, liver, kidneys, skin) so your system can safely eliminate stored toxins and hormonal waste and then walk you through eliminating anything we've identified in your body that could be blocking a healthy pregnancy.

  • Personalized detox and drainage plans & support
  • Repair liver and lymphatic detox pathways for optimized hormonal synthetization and clearance
  • Identify and address gut imbalances that prevent proper absorption and elimination
  • Low-tox guidance to prevent future buildup
Phase Three

Inflammation Shield

Calm the chaos that blocks implantation

Chronic inflammation disrupts hormone receptors and uterine receptivity. We quiet the immune system, heal the gut, and create the calm, steady environment your body needs to sustain pregnancy.

  • Reduce systemic inflammation and oxidative stress
  • Support gut-immune balance for implantation
  • Regulate blood sugar and cortisol rhythms
Phase Four

Cellular Rewind

Reverse cellular aging to boost egg and sperm health

We focus on deep repair by restoring mitochondrial power, hormone sensitivity, and nervous-system safety. Your body learns to operate from ease rather than stress so fertility can thrive.

  • Rejuvenate mitochondria and hormonal signaling
  • Rebuild nutrient stores and antioxidant defenses
  • Rewire stress responses for sustained fertility
  • Maximize your reproductive longevity

Just to update I got a positive on my pregnancy test I took and did call my Dr to get a blood test a couple hours ago and it came back positive as well!!! (: Just wondering what I should/shouldn't be taking now that I am pregnant! praying for a successful pregnancy <3

I have fabulous news. Look at this positive ovulation test. 😱 I don't think I have ovulated on my own in years. We are making progress!!!!

You are simply the best! You have 100% changed my life. Thank YOU for giving me confidence and hope as well as my physical and mental health back! Thank you for making me feel seen and heard when most people did NOT see or hear me. 🙏🏻💕 PS: who is cutting onions in here?! 😭

The anxiety of not knowing what was off in my body has been replaced by a sense of control knowing now most of the hidden factors in my health. Also, I do not feel as emotional, no deep dives into depression, anxiety or anger. Mood/emotions feel a bit more stable

It's pretty remarkable: Before and after having our son, I always figured I was a tired girly who just needed her coffee throughout the day and now I'm realizing the huge difference that nutrition makes! As I write this, I'm energetic and productive while my son naps - not long ago I'd groggily be crawling into bed for my own nap because my energy levels were just so zapped!

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions


Who is this program for?

This program was designed for women & their partners who are struggling to conceive &/or carry a pregnancy. Some have been through failed fertility treatments, others want to try this before going that route. This program is also for couples who are getting ready to try to conceive and want to put themselves in the best position to do so. Our clients come fully ready to commit to the program and ultimately getting to those two pink lines.

Who is this program not for?

This program is not for you if you’re not ready to commit. If you are vegan or vegetarian you should be open to changes in your diet (we also suggest dietary changes for meat eaters based on tests!). We will have you incorporate new habits into your days. If you’re not ready to go all in & fully commit to your future family in this way this one is not for you.

Do you take insurance?

Unfortunately we do not take insurance, but some clients have had success paying for their GI Map & DUTCH tests with an HSA/FSA card. This is dependent on your insurance provider. There are also programs such as the Advanced Care Card that offer interest free payment plans.

How personalized is the program?

Extremely personalized! Each participant receives one-on-one attention from a certified practitioner on our team who tailors the program to your specific needs, health history, and fertility goals. We work closely with you to ensure your experience is fully customized and supportive.

What can I expect during the program?

You can expect an empathetic and nurturing experience where you’ll receive detailed assessments, functional lab testing, personalized protocols, and ongoing guidance. Our holistic approach addresses all aspects of your fertility health to help you reach your goals.

Do both partners participate in the program?

We highly encourage men to participate along with the female partner. Fertility is 50/50 and even if his semen analysis looked fine, he will still have things to optimize to greatly improve your chances for success as a couple.

How do the functional labs differ from traditional tests?

Functional labs provide a holistic view of your health, examining nutrition, gut health, hormone balance, and more to uncover the root causes of fertility problems. This deeper insight allows for more targeted and effective solutions.

What outcomes can I expect by the end of the program?

By the end of the program, many clients achieve pregnancy or are in the best possible position to get pregnant (80%+ have a successful pregnancy after going through our program & success rates with IVF cycles after the program are sky high). Our goal is to equip you with a deeper understanding of your body and a clear path forward in your fertility journey.

Do you offer a money back guarantee?

The goal for you at the end of the program is to be 1) Pregnant or 2) in the best possible position for success with fertility interventions. This approach has helped hundreds of couples. The vast majority of our clients go on to have a successful pregnancy. A lot of getting there is determined by your commitment to the process with our team.

How long is the program?

The program is six months, providing ample time for us to thoroughly explore, understand, and address your fertility challenges with ongoing support. Our standard recommendation is to pause on trying to conceive for the first 3-4 months to give your bodies time to work through the personalized protocols and heal imbalances we find on your functional labs. Think of this time as slowing down to speed up.

Can I continue to work with you after the program ends?

Absolutely! We offer options to continue receiving support and guidance beyond the initial program if you want continued support!
