In this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, Dr. Mark Amols dives into the world of online fertility advice—from Facebook groups to TikTok trends—and explores why some well-meaning suggestions can actually do more harm than good. You’ll hear real stories of patients misled by online advice, the dangers of taking recommendations out of context, and how to become your own best advocate without falling into the misinformation trap.
Discover which sources you can actually trust (hint: it’s not IVFQueen2020) and how to balance curiosity with clarity in your fertility journey. Whether you’ve gone down the Google rabbit hole or just want to avoid being scared by strangers on the internet, this episode is for you.
