Female Infertility can arise when one or both partners have physiological or structural factors that affect reproduction. Acupuncture and Chinese medicine seeks to address these concerns by restoring balance and helping to reduce adverse health symptoms.
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine can be used alone or alongside western medical fertility treatments such as fertility drugs, surgery, artificial insemination, IVF, GIFT, ZIFT, and ICSI to help reduce side effects, improve stress management and optimize overall health in the attempt to improve chances of conceiving.
Common conditions treated may include:
- Unexplained Infertility
- Poor Egg Quality and Low Ovarian Reserve
- Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
- Endometriosis
- Difficulties with Ovulation (Anovulation)
- Female tube blockages (due to pelvic inflammatory disease, sexually transmitted diseases such as chlamydia, or previous sterilization procedures).
Note: Treatment reactions may vary from person to person and will depend on an individuals unique health history.**
