| Balancing
Disharmonies
TCM
can help you balance the disharmonies that have been preventing
conception. It is very common for couples today to feel
like "it's getting too late; we must employ severe measures".
While it is true that the average couple waits until later
in life to conceive, TCM may help "turn back the reproductive
clock". Please be patient with yourself. It takes at
least three cycles to normalize a woman's cycle; longer if
she has taken fertility drugs, has a history of sexually transmitted
disease, taken birth control pills, has endometriosis, pelvic
inflammatory disease, or polycystic ovaries. Likewise, it
takes 70 days to generate new sperm in a man. If he has a
history of drug or alcohol abuse or urological complications,
it may take longer to generate his reproductive capacity.
You
are not alone. Approximately one in six to ten couples
experience problems with fertility. Innumerable women grieve
the loss of a potential child once a month, and lose a little
more hope with each period. I believe that there is reason
for optimism.
Acupuncture
and herbal therapies are gentle, yet effective. It is
safe, natural, cost effective, and has no side effects. In
fact, TCM can only make you stronger, while helping create
a healthier environment for a harmonious pregnancy. TCM will
also increase the likelihood of conception if you do opt for
the fertility drugs or medically assisted fertilization techniques.

the help of acupuncture I was able to carry my now two year
