In this vital episode of Fertile Talks, Dr. Yemi Famuyiwa sheds light on von Willebrand disease (VWD)—a rare but impactful inherited bleeding disorder that can complicate fertility treatments like IVF. Though often overlooked, VWD can lead to serious risks during ovarian stimulation, egg retrieval, and even pregnancy or postpartum recovery.
Dr. Famuyiwa breaks down the different types of VWD, the symptoms to watch for, and how the condition can silently influence reproductive health. She also explains how a personalized care plan—developed in collaboration with hematologists and fertility specialists—can make safe, effective fertility treatment possible.
Whether you’re a patient with a bleeding disorder or a provider working with one, this episode offers critical insights into navigating IVF with confidence and care.
