Unfortunately, most fertility patients know all too well the struggle that comes with attempting pregnancy. They have gone through a profound journey through their emotions, frustrations, and desires. They have coped with the unfortunate side effects of prescribed drugs, not to mention the economic costs. The interesting thing is most patients are unaware of how Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) can help address their fertility. While modern medicine continues to astound and impress, generally there is a cold and empty climate surrounding the fertility clinic. The patients are not given the time and energy they deserve. While at a TCM clinic, it is the deepest belief that the mind, body, and spirit are one and they all must be addressed to achieve a state of health. Putting both of these kinds of medicine together has shown great success in recent studies. For instance, one study has shown a 26% increase in conception when using IUI (intrauterine insemination) and TCM together.
With these things in mind, I created with my partner Dr. Lisa Metzger a video that explains how TCM and acupuncture work to enhance fertility, and want to share it with ConceiveOnline.com’s readers:
