A six-month, physician-led program to optimize your whole health for conception.
Trying to conceive is more than tracking ovulation. Fertility is shaped by hormones, thyroid and metabolic health, nutrition, sleep, stress, cellular health, and environment. This program takes a whole-person approach: your provider evaluates you as an individual, not just a reproductive system, and builds a personalized six-month roadmap around three pillars: clinical and reproductive optimization, metabolic and cellular optimization, and nutrition, lifestyle, and behavioral optimization.
Not currently offered at Austin or Boulder. Our care team can coordinate a visit at the nearest clinic.

Individualized care, honest expectations.
- ✓Your testing and plan are individualized. Your provider selects what's appropriate for you rather than running every test on every patient.
- ✓The program optimizes the health foundations that support fertility. No program can guarantee conception, and your provider will always be honest with you about what they find.
- ✓It works alongside conventional care. Many patients use it to prepare for or complement fertility treatment, and referrals are made whenever they're the right step.
- ✓At six months, you'll have a clear picture of what improved and a personalized plan, whether that's transitioning into pregnancy care or coordinating next steps with a specialist.
From patients who've been through it.
“I did research to find a doctor that could help me after having a horrible experience with an OBGYN. I found Dr. Pero and decided to see her and it's the best decision I ever made.”
“I will sing Dr. Pero's praises for the rest of my life! After over a year of trying to get pregnant, countless appointments with a fertility specialist, and several failed clomid attempts I made an appointment with Dr. Pero. She immediately got to the ROOT of why I wasn't getting pregnant.”
“One of the best, if not the best, doctors I have seen. She takes the time to listen to you. Makes you feel supported and seen. Love that she is an OBGYN but does functional medicine now. My husband and I have been dealing with infertility for 6 years.”
“I promise this isn't an oversell, but it just doesn't get better than Dr. Pero. She has been the only provider who stood by my side after I lost a baby born still and has helped me heal from years and years of chronic pain and years of fertility struggles.”
“I felt seen, heard, and accepted with Svetlana. It felt like Svetlana wasn't just focusing on clearing symptoms out of my body, she was trying to figure out why they were there in the first place.”
Before you book.
Does this replace my fertility clinic?
No. This program is complementary to conventional fertility care, not a replacement. If you need reproductive endocrinology, imaging, or assisted reproduction, your provider will refer or co-manage with those specialists.
Is insurance accepted?
The program is self-pay. A superbill is available on request for you to submit to your insurance or HSA/FSA administrator. Reimbursement varies and isn't guaranteed.
What happens after the six months?
You can continue month-to-month, for as long as you'd like the support: a Comprehensive Continuity Plan ($1,200/mo, with a provider check-in, two health coach check-ins, and wellness center access) or a Foundational Support Plan ($600/mo, with a health coach check-in and wellness center access).
The Fertility Optimization Program supports preconception health and general wellness and does not guarantee conception or pregnancy. It is not a substitute for conventional fertility evaluation or treatment where indicated. All care is provider-directed; testing, therapies, and any medications are individualized and prescribed at your provider's clinical judgment. Eligibility and recommendations may be affected by your health history.
