Join us as we explore the world of microplastics with fertility specialist Oluyemisi (Yemi) Famuyiwa. Learn about microplastics, how they permeate our environment, and their potential effects on human health and fertility. Yemi will share insights from recent studies, including the presence of microplastics in reproductive organs and their implications for sperm quality and ovarian function. We’ll also discuss practical tips for reducing exposure and the importance of advocacy for stronger regulations.

Oluyemisi (Yemi) Famuyiwa is a renowned fertility specialist and founder, Montgomery Fertility Center, committed to guiding individuals and couples on their path to parenthood with personalized care.

She discusses the KevinMD article, “Microplastics and fertility: Uncovering the hidden risks to reproductive health.”
