So, today on The Drew Mariani Show, Drew explores a super important (and often emotional) topic: infertility. And who better to help us navigate it than the always insightful Dr. John Littell?



Let’s be real: infertility is affecting more couples than we probably realize. Drew shares that around 1 in 6 couples experience this struggle. What’s surprising? It's not just a “woman’s problem.” Nope, 40-50% of infertility is linked to men! 



Dr. Littell explains how modern society, including delayed childbearing, poor diets (yup, all those carbs and sweets), environmental toxins, and lifestyle choices, are throwing off our chances of conceiving. Yes, IVF and artificial methods are not accepted in the Catholic Church but rest assured that there are natural solutions. NaProTechnology and natural fertility care are inspired by the teachings of Pope Paul VI. This method focuses on restoring natural cycles and addressing hidden issues like endometriosis or PCOS (which are on the rise, by the way).



🔍 Dr. Littell’s key points:



Many women have underlying conditions like endometriosis masked by years of birth control, and it's only discovered when they try to conceive.



PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) is tied to metabolic syndrome and inflammatory diets. Think sugary, carb-filled junk food wreaking havoc. 🍩🍕



Men’s sperm counts are plummeting in developed countries, yet natural solutions do exist to boost fertility!



Oh, and if you need some extra spiritual help on this journey, don't forget about Our Lady of La Leche. She’s been the go-to for centuries for women seeking intercession for fertility and healthy pregnancies. 🙏Take a pilgrimage to her shrine if you can; many have experienced miracles after seeking her intercession!



So, whether it’s through faith or natural reproductive technologies, Dr. Littell reminds us that God and His Blessed Mother always have a hand in bringing life into the world. 👶💖 Keep the hope alive, and trust in God's perfect timing. You are not alone in this difficult struggle you're facing.
