TOP 2% GLOBALLY RANKED HOLISTIC HEALTH PODCAST
Faith-led fertility support for couples trying to conceive after vasectomy reversal, with a whole-body approach to hormones, health, and the root-cause pieces mainstream medicine often misses.
Hi, I’m Susan Gladstein — Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioner, Functional Nutrition Specialist, creator of Rooted Fertility™ and Rooted Reset™, and mom of two vasectomy reversal babies born in my 40s.
Faith Over Pharma is for the couple who thought getting pregnant after vasectomy reversal would happen faster than this.
You’re tracking cycles, timing everything, watching semen analysis numbers, praying for two pink lines, and trying to stay hopeful while each month feels heavier than the last.
You’ve been told to “wait and see,” but waiting without a plan is exhausting.
You may have been told your only options are IUI, IVF, ICSI, or another medical step. And while you’re not against medical support, something about making those decisions without looking at the whole picture does not sit right with you.
I know this road personally.
After my husband’s vasectomy reversal, I had my first reversal baby at 40 and my second at almost 45. That journey taught me something I will never forget:
Fertility is not separate from health.
Here, we talk about what mainstream medicine often overlooks: male fertility, sperm health, semen analysis patterns, hormones, thyroid health, inflammation, nervous system stress, sleep, nutrient status, blood sugar, cycle health, mitochondrial health, and the whole-body factors that may be quietly working against conception.
But we also talk about the bigger picture: how to support the body God designed, how to stop chasing symptoms, how to ask better questions, and how to build health in a way that feels rooted, practical, and sustainable.
If you believe God designed the body with wisdom and you want to understand how to support it well…
You are in the right place.
