AMH, if you’re unfamiliar, supposedly tests your ovarian reserve to predict your fertility potential. Without digging into why I think this test is extremely questionable (and therefore certainly not something I see as a defining result), I see women’s AMH results dramatically improve after following a few simple steps which we will dig into here today.

What Keeps You Awake At Night?

You know the drill. You're lying in bed, exhausted and longing for sleep. But it seems your brain has other ideas.

Just as you're trying to wind down, it decides to play a compilation of some of your most embarrassing, regretful and cringe-worthy memories on shuffle.

Like that time you blanked on a colleague's name halfway through introducing them to someone.

When trying to rest, what does your brain decide you need to think about? And how do you shut those thoughts down?
