Chinese Medicine and Fertility

Picture
Chinese medicine is used in a variety of different ways to assist in pregnancy achievement. Acupuncture and Chinese medicine  can be used as a stand-alone treatment to enhance fertility and prepare for a healthy pregnancy and baby or  to treat a specific infertility diagnosis.   Modern research has substantiated the successful use of acupuncture  in conjunction with assisted reproductive technology to increase successful IVF outcomes. Though many couples seek acupuncture treatment exclusively during an in-vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle, you will benefit more fully from acupuncture if you give your body three menstrual cycles of treatment prior to attempting conception or an IVF cycle. Though it is acupuncture that is best known for its role in fertility, it is part of a holistic system of traditional Chinese medicine that includes specific dietary and nutritional recommendations, Chinese herbal medicine, exercise and lifestyle recommendations to improve the overall health for each individual patient.   Read more...
