Feed Your Microbiome, Fuel Your Fertility: Dr Cecilia Kitic on Gut–Hormone Science
In this deeply nourishing chat, Helen welcomes Dr Cecilia Kitic—researcher, exercise physiologist, and founder of The IVF Project and Fertile Gut—to unpack the gut–fertility axis. With 80+ publications in immuno-nutrition, Dr Cecelia explains how the microbiome shapes hormones, inflammation, ovulation, implantation, and pregnancy outcomes. We cover the estrobolome and oestrogen balance, SCFAs, enzymes (e.g., β-glucuronidase), mitochondrial support for egg quality, links to PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, male factor (incl. DNA fragmentation), IVF response and FET success.
