Please consult with your medical professional before beginning the Program, and keep your medical professional apprised of your progress throughout the Program. Your purchase of a Program, including your access to information provided in the Program or Program materials or implementation of any suggestions set out in the Program, does not create a doctor-patient relationship between you and Dr. Hillary Fredrickson, ND or Dr. Kara Burkhart, ND, LAc.

3. Supplement Disclosure

Cultivate Fertility sells custom private-labeled Cultivate Fertility supplements at www.cultivatefertility.com. Information and statements made in the Program and on the Cultivate Fertility website regarding dietary supplements and products have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. Any products, including Cultivate Fertility supplements, which may be mentioned in the Program are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. 

At no time is any participant required to purchase Cultivate Fertility supplements or any supplements discussed in the Program.  All discussions regarding supplements are for information and education only and are not medical advice, prescriptions, treatment, or individualized recommendations.  

You should always consult with an appropriately qualified health care professional familiar with your individual situation for diagnosis and treatment, including information regarding which supplements or treatment may be appropriate for you. Cultivate Fertility does not represent or warrant that any particular supplement or treatment is safe, appropriate, or effective for you.

4. No Guarantees

You acknowledge and agree that Cultivate Fertility makes no guarantees of any kind about the results of your participation in a Program or use of any information in a Program. In other words, your purchase of the Program and use of any information presented in the Program does not guarantee any success with respect to health outcomes, including, without limitation, fertility, pregnancy, hormone health or otherwise. 

You recognize that every individual is different, and many factors contribute to one’s fertility and overall health.  You also recognize that prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.  Thus, the results obtained by others, whether clients of Cultivate Fertility, users or participants of the Program or otherwise, are no guarantee that you or any other person or entity will obtain similar results.
