Hi, I’m Rebecca Rumsey. I’m a functional fertility expert helping women over 40 overcome complex fertility challenges and optimize their chances of pregnancy using a science-based, holistic approach. After being told I was in early menopause at 41 and that my chances of having a baby with my own eggs were extremely low, I went on to naturally conceive and have two healthy children at 44 and 46. Today, I help women around the world uncover the root causes holding back their fertility, restore their health, and achieve what many have been told is impossible.
With a Master’s in Holistic Health and certifications in nutrition, fertility, and exercise science, I’ve spent more than 20 years helping people optimize their health.
In my 20s and 30s, I built a career helping people improve their health through functional nutrition, hormone optimization, and personal training. Like many women who try to conceive later in life, I focused on my career, achievements, and enjoying life until I realized, at 40, that becoming a mom had become my most important priority.
I met my husband just a few days after my 40th birthday, and we quickly knew we wanted to start a family. By that time, I had successfully addressed numerous hormonal and medical issues—including amenorrhea, hypothyroidism, adrenal dysfunction, and heavy metal toxicity—despite having been dismissed by conventional medicine. Using my background in holistic nutrition and health, I developed a personalized approach that addressed the root causes of my health concerns.
Life threw me a curveball when I suffered a severe concussion at 41, which drastically altered my hormones. I went from being very fertile before the concussion to being told I was in early menopause—devastating news right when motherhood had become my top priority. We considered IVF, but the high costs, low success rates for women over 40, and clinics’ reluctance to work with women using their own eggs made me hesitant. We believed we could achieve our baby dreams naturally.
I dove back into research and spent a year holistically preparing my body. I was able to conceive naturally at 43, deliver a healthy baby at 44, and do it again at 46. My journey demonstrates the power of evidence-based, holistic fertility optimization—even later in life.
Since then, I’ve helped hundreds of women over 40 navigate complex fertility hurdles, optimize their health, and bring home healthy babies. My story, combined with my clients’ successes, proves that pregnancy well into your 40s is achievable with the right support. Whether you’re trying to conceive naturally or preparing for IVF, I’m here to help you create a clear, personalized path to parenthood.
