A Comprehensive Treatment Plan for Fertility

Acupuncture

Acupuncture has been used in China for centuries to treat fertility issues. Whether you are just beginning to think about having a family, or have been struggling with infertility, acupuncture greatly increase your chances of conceiving and maintaining a healthy, full-term pregnancy. Your body’s systems are based on millions of years of evolutionary wisdom. Acupuncture and herbs work with this innate wisdom to help your body regulate itself.

The first step of acupuncture treatment for fertility is to create a healthy, regular, and pain-free menstrual cycle. Through regulating the cycle, acupuncture:

  • Improves ovarian function and egg quality
  • Corrects hormonal imbalances
  • Creates optimal conditions for the fertilized egg to attach to the walls of the uterus
  • Instates smooth blood flow to the uterus

Whether your goal is to conceive naturally or with the help of assisted reproductive therapies (ART), such as in-vitro fertilization (IVF) or intra-uterine insemination (IUI), acupuncture helps you establish a healthy base from which a fetus can thrive. Studies have shown that acupuncture works in tandem with fertility technology to increase success rates from between 42 and 60%. Acupuncture alone also can greatly improve fertility at low cost with almost no side effects.

Acupuncture also works holistically, improving digestion and nutrient absorption, enhancing immunity, and helping manage stress.

The side effects of your fertility treatment will be a healthy body, a quiet mind, and a better quality of life.

Herbal Medicine

Herbal medicine can treat some of the most common causes of infertility: uterine fibroids, polyps, PCOS, and the like. Chinese herbs are able to profoundly regulate hormone levels, often lowering FSH levels and increasing progesterone levels naturally. Unlike Western treatments that treat these imbalances with false suppression and supplementation, Chinese herbs help your body regulate itself. The result is a healthier pregnancy and better postpartum health.

In the process of promoting fertility, Chinese herbs also improve your overall health.
