TCM for Fertility, Pregnancy, and Beyond
Unveiling the Full Scope of Fertility with TCM
In the realm of fertility, where medical paths like IUI and IVF offer promise, acupuncture amplifies their potential. But beyond just aiding conception, TCM's approach values the well-being of the mother throughout her journey. By thriving, a mother sets the stage for her child to flourish.
Here, our TCM perspective offers renewed hope for the riddle of "unexplained infertility", which often leaves many in despair. Rather than just a reproductive challenge, we discern broader imbalances within the body and mind. For those considering IVF, we recommend at least three months of our holistic care. It's like preparing a garden's soil, ensuring the body is at its best to receive and nurture new life.
HOW WE TREAT FERTILITY
Acupuncture alleviates stress and fosters optimal conditions for natural conception and successful IVF outcomes. During pregnancy, it offers relief without relying on medications, enhancing the overall experience, and facilitating smoother deliveries, including addressing breech presentations. Post-partum, it aids in swift recovery and mitigates the risk of depression.
Chinese herbal medicine nurtures the body, creating an ideal environment for natural conception and amplifying the chances of IVF success. Throughout pregnancy, these time-tested remedies provide holistic relief and well-being, especially when traditional medications might be off-limits. Especially for those with a history of recurrent miscarriages, Chinese herbs can be a beacon of hope; even in situations where vaginal bleeding has occurred but ultrasound results remain promising, these herbs have proven effective in preventing miscarriage and sustaining the pregnancy. Athe journey progresses towards childbirth, Chinese herbs can support smoother deliveries and correct fetal positioning issues, such as breech presentations. In the post-partum phase, they play a vital role in hastening recovery and reducing the potential onset of depression.
By stimulating better blood flow to the uterus, it not only aids in implantation but also plays a pivotal role in preventing miscarriage. Especially when vaginal bleeding occurs during pregnancy, moxa can be instrumental in arresting such bleeding, thus ensuring the safety of both mother and baby. Furthermore, beyond its fertility-enhancing and protective functions, moxa has been effectively used to address breech presentations. Through the gentle warming of specific acupuncture points, it encourages the baby to adjust into the best position for birth, facilitating smoother deliveries and minimizing potential complications.

Unexplained infertility:
Even if your lab results are normal, it doesn't negate subtle disharmonies within the body that may not impact the tests. We begin with a pattern diagnosis to identify the root of the issue. Irregular, painful periods with clots or dark brown blood indicate a need for regulation. A consistently light period requires intervention. And if your menstruation seems normal but conception remains elusive, often the issue is insufficient nourishment, a frequent cause of secondary infertility, where conceiving after a first child proves challenging.
iui/ivf
Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine enhance IUI/IVF journeys, improving success odds by boosting egg quality and quantity. Acupuncture reduces stress, linked to higher success rates, and alleviates IVF hormone side effects. Pairing herbal medicine with acupuncture is ideal for multiple IVF attempts or future planning, optimizing fertility conditions. This holistic strategy aims for optimal fertility outcomes.
Perinatal
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) supports perinatal care for both mother and child. TCM prevents miscarriages, eases discomforts, and addresses challenges during pregnancy using acupuncture and other techniques. TCM readies the body for labor and aids postpartum recovery, ensuring holistic care from pregnancy to childbirth and beyond.
Postpartum
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), childbirth depletes energy and blood reserves. Post-partum recovery is vital for physical and emotional well-being, fostering the mother-child bond. TCM sees the 1-6 months post-childbirth as 'golden' for long-term health. Neglecting this phase can lead to health issues like allergies and fatigue. Post-partum depression in TCM is linked to emotional distress and energetic exhaustion, extending beyond sadness. It emphasizes nourishment and balance.
