Kourtney Kardashian and her husband Travis Barker seemed as if they were willing to try almost anything to aid their fertility journey on the latest episode of The Kardashians.
The 43-year-old Poosh founder got a variety of unusual new-age treatments in the episode, including a risky vaginal steam session.
Kourtney Kardashian claims her doctor advised her to swallow Travis Barker's sperm "four times a week" to help with conception, and the internet is in shock.
As they seek to expand their blended family, the couple has discussed their IVF journey in the current season of The Kardashians on Hulu.
In the most recent episode, Kardashian, 43, and Barker, 46, visited Martha Soffer, an expert in Ayurvedic medicine.
Recalling her most recent doctor's checkup, Kardashian informed Soffer about what she'd learned about her thyroid levels — and some unexpected recommendations.
"I can't remember what he said if it was low or high," she said.
"But he told us, well, he told me, that the thing that would help it was drinking [Travis'] cum, like, four times a week."
As Soffer chuckled slightly, Barker joked: "I love this doctor."
The pair hinted that they never followed through on the advice, instead of visiting Soffer's Surya Spa for a detox that included abstaining from exercise, caffeine, and sex.
In a confessional, Kardashian - who recently got married to Barker - continued: "Our last egg retrieval was not successful.
"So, our new thing that we're going to be trying is a Panchakarma cleanse, which is Ayurvedic. It's like 3,000 years old."
She said she felt 'super grateful' that Barker was doing it with her, adding: "I don't think I could do it on my own. I just feel like it's something we have to do together. We're making a baby together; we have to be on the same page."
The idea proved too much to bear for some viewers, with many jumping onto Twitter to express their shock - with some saying they 'almost threw up.
One wrote: "I literally GASPED when Kourtney says her Dr advised her to drink Travis' cum [...] Thursdays are officially meant to be weirded out by the Kardashians now."
Someone else said: "Lmao, I'm watching The Kardashians and Kourtney said her doctor told her to drink Travis' cum for her thyroid???????? Girlie, what."
A third commented: "Kourtney said on the most recent episode of the show that she's gonna drink Travis's cum, and I almost threw up."
A fourth added: "NOT KOURTNEY ADMITTING TO SWALLOWING CUM 4 TIMES A WEEK FOR HER THYROID?????? THIS SHOW IS CRAZY."
In fairness, she didn't actually admit she did it in the end if that helps.
