Episode #47 we changed it up a bit. Randy Gibson, Ryan Bartlett, and I discuss all the ins and outs of fertility. We've all spent many years learning about this topic, and we hope to share some light into improving fertility and what's causing 1 in 6 couples to experience infertility.
If hear anything you don't agree with or have ideas to share then we'd love to hear from you by emailing shortlifeadvice@gmail.com or if you prefer to submit anonymously please go here.
At least 1 in 6 couples have infertility issues (which means a couple goes over 1 year of being unable to conceive). The fertility rate is how many children a woman or couple has and it has been dropping significantly.
When the fertility rate is at 2.1, then we say we are at replacement rate.
The whole world is at 2.4 but it was at 5 in 1960.
Right now, the US is at 1.7. It was at 3.5 in 1958. -source
