YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDr. Ann Shippy joins Dr. Mark Hyman to discuss how you should consider not rushing into pregnancy. She emphasizes that what you do in the months leading up matters more than you might think.
Your metabolic health, toxin exposure, sleep, and lifestyle all send signals that shape how your genes are expressed—and those signals are passed on to your baby.
For men, sperm takes about 74–86 days to develop, making the 3 months before conception a critical window to optimize health.
The powerful part? These changes don’t just impact your baby—they can influence future generations.
