    (00:01:19) Dr. Mona Orady has over 20 years of experience in minimally invasive and robotic surgery, with a focus on women's health issues such as pain and infertility.

    (00:11:02) Dr. Orady emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach to patient care, considering not only the physical symptoms but also the emotional, mental, and social aspects of a woman's life.

    (00:19:40) The use of robotics in surgery has revolutionized the treatment of endometriosis, allowing for more precise and delicate procedures while minimizing damage to surrounding tissue.

    (00:25:07) Mini micro laparoscopy, using smaller instruments, is an ideal approach for teenagers, young women, and fertility patients who may not have severe endometriosis but still require surgical intervention.

    (00:32:08) Dr. Orady believes that endometriosis should be thoroughly evaluated and treated before considering IVF, as improving endometriosis can significantly increase the chances of natural conception and reduce the need for assisted reproductive technologies.

    Timestamp key takeaways:

    (10:31) Prenatal nutrition is important for both the mother and the baby's health during pregnancy. It is essential to focus on nutrient-dense foods and prioritize protein intake.

    (18:46) During the second trimester, it is crucial to eat enough food and focus on nutrient-dense options. Including foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as fatty fish and eggs, can support the baby's brain development.

    (21:49) Blood sugar balance is key during the third trimester. Pairing carbohydrate-rich foods with proteins and fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels. It is also important to continue consuming foods rich in omega-3s and prioritize fluid intake.

    (29:44) In the weeks leading up to labor and delivery, it is recommended to have snacks and fluids readily available. Protein-rich snacks like frozen grapes and string cheese can provide nourishment during labor. Electrolyte drinks can help replenish fluids.

    (36:03) Postpartum healing and breastfeeding require increased nutrient and fluid intake. Adequate protein, B12, choline, and omega-3s are essential during this period. Planning freezer meals, having snacks on hand, and staying hydrated are important for postpartum recovery and milk production.
