I am joined by Dr. Ed Coates to discuss the EMMA and ALICE tests, which analyze the uterine microbiome to assess fertility health.

Dr Coates explains the importance of understanding the microbiome's role in implantation and how bacterial imbalances can affect fertility.

We discuss:

• How the EMMA and ALICE tests analyze the uterine microbiome.

• How bacterial imbalances can affect embryo implantation.

• Why the timing of tests is crucial in fertility treatments.

• Why patients with recurrent miscarriage may benefit from microbiome testing.

• How understanding the microbiome can help improve fertility outcomes.

• Why communication with patients about testing options is essential.

• How the endometrial receptivity array (ERA) can help determine the best timing for embryo transfer.
