All the Questions You Ever Had About Fertility and IVF Answered by Dr. Dorothy Roach

Curious about fertility and IVF? With over 30 years of experience, Dr. Dorothy Roach, Program Director at HART Fertility, is here to provide much-needed answers. Based in Houston, HART Fertility has been at the forefront of assisted reproductive technology since the early days of IVF, consistently achieving pregnancy rates that surpass the national average. While success isn’t guaranteed with every treatment, Dr. Roach emphasizes the importance of unwavering support throughout what can be an emotional and unpredictable journey.

Dr. Roach founded HART Fertility in 1992, and the landscape of fertility treatments has changed dramatically since then. During her OBGYN training, IVF was still experimental, and hers was one of only five programs in the nation. Procedures that once required an operating room and general anesthesia are now far less invasive, allowing patients to remain awake for much of the process.
In this episode, Dr. Roach sits down with host Lalaina Rabary to explore the evolving world of fertility: from the latest advancements in IVF and the challenges of infertility to the intricacies of egg freezing. Lalaina also opens up about her personal IVF journey, offering an intimate perspective on what it’s really like to navigate the highs and lows of fertility treatment.
