You’ll learn how fertility really works at a deeper level, from brain-to-hormone communication to mitochondrial health, inflammation, and cellular energy. We walk through key peptides people explore for both female and male fertility, including those that influence hormone signaling, improve egg and sperm quality, and support overall reproductive function. This episode also covers realistic expectations, timing, and why foundational factors like hydration, sleep, and stress matter just as much as anything else. If you want a clear, science-based understanding of how peptides fit into fertility support, this is a must-listen. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-peptide-effect-7488078/episodes/audience-asked-peptides-and-fertility-explained-optimizing-hormones-mitochondria-and-reproductive-health/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-peptide-effect-7488078/audience-asked-peptides-and-fertility-explained-optimizing-hormones-mitochondria-and-reproductive-health.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
