Many people use the Jumpstart to explore factors that may influence reproductive health before or alongside treatment. We encourage you to keep working with your fertility doctor.

We are glad to support single women and all family structures. What if I already have test results? Bring them. We review your health history and existing results in detail, and recommend only the testing that adds useful information. How long does the Jumpstart take? Most people move through the Jumpstart in about 6 to 12 weeks. Timing varies with lab turnaround and your cycle. What happens after the Jumpstart?
