Restoring
Fertility™

Some fertility programs seem to cover similar areas. However, covering the same categories does not mean the analysis is equivalent. Two chefs can work with the same ingredients and produce very different results. Similarly, the value of a fertility program lies in the skill and judgment used to interpret the information, identify what matters most, and develop a focused course of action.

In this program, all visits are with Dr. Horn, who personally analyzes your medical history, fertility timeline, prior testing, treatment response, and broader health patterns.

This requires more than gathering data or generating a long list of possible recommendations. It requires clinical judgment, pattern recognition, and the ability to distinguish meaningful findings from those that are less likely to affect the outcome.

That judgment is informed by decades of research, teaching, and more than 25 years of clinical experience in fertility care. The result is a carefully prioritized and individualized strategy, not a generic protocol or an overwhelming list of recommendations.

To see an example of the depth and approach Dr. Horn brings to analyzing fertility research, you can read an excerpt from his work.

No. The Restoring Fertility Program is designed to provide education, fertility optimization strategy, and decision support. It is not a substitute for, and does not replace, medical diagnosis or treatment from a licensed physician. Participants are encouraged to maintain an ongoing relationship with their local medical provider.

The Restoring Fertility Program provides a different level and type of analysis. Rather than focusing primarily on reproductive diagnosis and treatment selection, the program examines the broader picture. The aim is to answer the question: "What are the factors making it difficult for me to become pregnant or remain pregnant?" from a functional standpoint.

Reproductive endocrinology training focuses almost exclusively on the reproductive system. However, the research literature suggests that a large percentage of fertility problems are caused or influenced by factors outside the reproductive system. In many cases, even the reproductive abnormalities identified by a fertility specialist may be downstream effects of broader issues involving metabolism, immune function, thyroid regulation, nutrition, lifestyle, stress physiology, or environmental exposures.

The Restoring Fertility Program was designed to identify, prioritize, and address those underlying and contributing factors.

Yes. All consultations and program guidance are provided directly by Dr. Horn.

The female program includes eight sessions over four months, including a comprehensive initial consultation; review of fertility history, prior testing, and lifestyle factors; identification and prioritization of factors most likely to be influencing fertility; development of a structured, individualized strategy; guided implementation; and a final roadmap. The male program spans four months with five sessions.

The Restoring Fertility program runs for four months and is divided into three stages: foundational review, personalized strategy development, and guided implementation & refinement.

Some labs, tools, and supplements are commonly suggested to help provide clarity, track progress, or support areas of function that may be suboptimal. They can be very helpful, but none of them are strict requirements to participate in the program. Recommendations are always discussed in advance and aligned with your comfort level, and many clients are able to coordinate testing through their own physician.

While it is often beneficial for couples to enroll together, the analysis, guidance, and pricing remain individual. Working with both partners can sometimes reveal patterns that may not be apparent when evaluating only one member of the couple.

The program fee is $9,750 for women and $6,250 for men.

This fee includes working directly with Dr. Horn for four months. He personally reviews all of your information, conducts every session, makes each adjustment, and is available to you by direct message between sessions. It is not a set of materials or a protocol to follow on your own; it is four months of individualized attention.

Additional considerations for those using ART

In most major cities, a single IVF cycle averages around $25,000. Statistically, women undergo two to three IVF cycles per live birth. Many factors that are addressed by the Restoring Fertility program have been shown to significantly improve per-cycle IVF success rates — potentially reducing the number of IVF cycles to live birth, and thereby significantly reducing the cost per live birth.

IVF itself is a conception technology. It is not designed to identify or address the overall health of the mother, pregnancy, or child. An IVF clinic's job is to try to help you get pregnant and maintain that pregnancy through a fetal heartbeat.

The Restoring Fertility program is complementary. It works to improve the health of the parents, pregnancy, and subsequent child. It works to improve not only IVF success rates, but natural conception rates as well.

While all additional labs, tracking tools, and supplements are optional, many clients choose to invest in additional testing or supplementation based on their individual situation. Recommendations are always discussed in advance, and clients are never required to purchase any particular product, test, or service. Supplement recommendations commonly range from approximately $100–$250 per month.

The programs are different. Female reproductive physiology is more dynamic and time-sensitive, requiring more frequent tracking, pattern review, and adjustment. Male programs are equally important but typically require less frequent monitoring, review, and adjustment.

We do not accept insurance. However, some or all of this program may qualify for HSA/FSA. Please verify directly with your administrator.

It is not unusual for pregnancies to occur as changes are made. In these cases, we simply focus on maintaining and supporting the pregnancy.

You leave with a roadmap and plan that you can continue using independently. Graduates of the program receive 30 days of messaging support following completion at no additional charge.

The oldest woman in Dr. Horn's practice to conceive naturally with her own eggs was 49, and she delivered a healthy baby at age 50.
