Can Acupuncture & Chinese Herbal Medicine Help Fertility?
At Village Remedies clinic in Balmain, Sydney, we see both women and men for fertility support.
Trying to conceive can be an exciting but also stressful time. Things that may get in the way of fertility include:
- Lifestyle - stresses from emotional, nutritional and/or chemical sources
- Age - it will be easier for women under 35 and men under 40 to conceive naturally (not to say it can’t happen later though)
- Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
- Endometriosis
- STI’s
- Sperm health
Improving fertility will depend on you and your partner’s unique situation but include:
- Treating or managing any of the above conditions
- Suggesting lifestyle or dietary changes
- Offering supplementation
- Assisted reproductive treatments such as IVF
Can Acupuncture & Chinese Herbal Medicine Help Fertility?
From a Chinese medicine perspective, our goal is to help improve your body’s overall health so that you’re in a better and stronger state to conceive naturally. Ideally we see both the man and woman to give us the best chance and focus on improving sleep, digestion, reducing tension and pain, and lowering stress. For women we must also pay close attention to the health of the menstrual cycle.
At Village Remedies clinic in Balmain, Sydney, we use acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine that has been traditionally indicated for improving fertility and chances of conception. Each treatment plan is tailored to your situation, whether you’re planning on trying, have been trying for a while, or undergoing ART or IVF.
