Your Fertility Questions Answered - Informative Q & A with Dr. Brian Levine

In this Q&A, Dr. Brian Levine of CCRM New York brings deep expertise and humanity to questions that don’t always have easy answers. From navigating donor eggs and PCOS to what really makes a great doctor, his responses are honest and informative.

What we covered

Dr. Levine tackled big-picture topics like embryo quality and diagnostic fatigue, but also smaller decisions that matter: like whether to request a natural cycle FET.

Some of the highlights included:

  • Natural vs. medicated embryo transfers (and why one isn’t “better”)

  • When to shift from your own eggs to donor eggs—and how to do it emotionally

  • Supplements for PCOS (beyond the hype)

  • Why diet is more powerful than any pill

  • Endometriosis, inflammation, and failed transfers

  • Surrogacy and cost through Nodal

  • What actually sets a great fertility doctor apart
