SOBRE ESTE EPISÓDIO
In this deeply insightful and empowering episode of The Space Between Two Lines, host Alex Saunders sits down with Adelle, a 34-year-old chiropractor from Adelaide, South Australia, who shares her 6-to-7-year fertility journey. Despite living a health-conscious, "pill-free" lifestyle and having regular cycles, Adelle and her husband, Cam, faced years of unexplained delay, complex genetic screening, and heartbreaking failed embryo transfers.
When conventional IVF results left them with no clear answers, Adelle advocated for her own care. Her path eventually led them interstate to Melbourne, Victoria, where they consulted renowned reproductive immunology specialist Dr. Nick Lolatiss. There, they discovered a partial HLA DQR Alpha match—a rare immune response where the maternal body recognizes the embryo as "self" and launches an immune attack to protect itself.
From undergoing Lymphocyte Immunization Therapy (LIT) to combining high-tech medical science with acupuncture and visualization, Adelle’s story is a masterclass in patient self-advocacy, resilience, and bridging mainstream reproductive medicine with holistic care.
