Optimum Fertility

It is important to prepare your body now to help create the best environment to nurture and develop a baby in the future. This include understanding how your current lifestyle, stress, eating and exercise habits affects your reproductive functions. A consultation with Tran will clarify your current health status addressing any underlying issues affecting your reproductive function.

Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs can help Reproduction by:

• Treating underlying health issues affecting fertillity.

• Reducing stress hormones that interferes with ovulation.

• Normalize hormones that regulate ovulation so an egg is released.

• Increase blood flow to the uterus, improving the chances of a fertilized egg implanting.

• Improve ovulation cycle in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos) which makes getting pregnant difficult.

• Improving pregnancy rates in women undergoing in vitro fertilisation (IVF).

Stress and unexplained Infertility

Chinese medicine recognises stress and emotional imbalances as one of the major reasons for being unable to conceive, which typically coincides with a western diagnosis of unexplained infertility.

Common effects of stress on fertility:

• Stress can affect the hypothalamus which can affect a woman's ability to ovulate.

• Stress leads to the adrenal borrowing more progesterone to make more adrenal hormones, therefore chronic stress can lead to lower
progesterone levels.

• Stress can increase cortisol levels, which can block progesterone receptors and interfere with the embryo implanting into the uterine lining.

• Stress can increase prolactin levels and interfere with ovulation.

While infertility may appear to be the problem, it is actually the manifestation of a deeper underlying imbalance. Chinese medicine focuses on creating a healthy and fertile body by correcting the body's imbalance. Once balanced, the body will function as it naturally will.
