Fertility and Women's Health

Women who take the most common fertility drugs, progesterone and clomiphene, are at a greater risk to develop thyroid cancer than those who don’t, according to a study by the Institute of Cancer Epidemiology, Danish Cancer Society. The 36-year study, which tracked thousands of women, discovered that women who took fertility drugs developed thyroid cancer at an increased rate over those who did not. Compounded with the previously documented risks of multiple births and other complications, many couples have begun seeking natural alternatives to the use of fertility drugs.

Physical Therapist Belinda Wurn, who developed a natural fertility treatment with her therapist husband joins the show to discuss natural alternatives to fertility drugs.

Belinda Wurn began her education as a pre-med student at the University of Florida. Despite a straight-A average, Belinda soon realized that her heart was in a more “hands-on” approach. She transferred to the Physical Therapy program, graduated and began working. The Wurns now have several ‘Clear Passage’ clinics across the United States –named from their experience opening blocked fallopian tubes. Their research articles and citations have been published in such respected Medical journals as Medscape General Medicine, Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine, Contemporary Ob/Gyn and Fertility and Sterility.
