As a family medicine physician, I’ve spent years guiding women through preconception care—discussing ovulation windows, vaccines, stress levels, and chronic disease screening. I’ve had countless women ask me for fertility labs and lifestyle guidance, eager to take the lead on their reproductive health. But one glaring omission in my training—and in most of our conversations—was the environment. Specifically, how everyday toxins and chemicals in our homes, food, and products are silently hijacking not only women’s health, but men’s too.
