Natural Fertility
Traditional Chinese Medicine supports natural fertility by addressing underlying causes of reproductive challenges, improving hormonal balance, and enhancing overall reproductive health. Through acupuncture, herbal medicine, and personalised diet and lifestyle recommendations, TCM can support conditions such as ovulation dysfunction, PCOS, endometriosis, and male factor fertility, helping improve conception outcomes naturally.
Ovulation dysfunction
Conditions like hypothalamic amenorrhoea or ovarian insufficiency disrupt hormone production and menstrual cycles. Stress, excessive exercise, or low body weight can cause hypothalamic amenorrhoea, while ovarian insufficiency leads to early ovarian function loss, both affecting fertility.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
PCOS is a hormonal disorder causing irregular periods, ovarian cysts, and symptoms like acne and hair growth, often linked to insulin resistance. It can also disrupt ovulation, making conception more challenging and affecting overall fertility.
Endometriosis
Occurs when uterine tissue grows outside the uterus, causing pain, inflammation, and potential fertility challenges. This condition can lead to scar tissue and adhesions, which may affect egg implantation and the function of the reproductive organs.
Adenomyosis
A condition where endometrial tissue grows within the uterine muscle, which can cause heavy, painful periods and an enlarged uterus. This can create an inflammatory environment that may affect implantation and overall fertility.
Uterine conditions
Conditions, such as fibroids, polyps, or congenital uterine anomalies, may impact embryo implantation and pregnancy success. These structural abnormalities can affect the uterine lining, blood flow, and overall receptivity for embryo development.
Male fertility (male factor fertility)
Low sperm count, poor sperm motility, or abnormal morphology, which can reduce the chances of natural conception. Underlying health conditions, lifestyle factors, and hormonal imbalances may also contribute to fertility challenges.
Unexplained infertility
Cases where no specific cause is identified, yet challenges with conception persist. Despite normal test results, factors like egg quality, sperm function, or subtle hormonal imbalances may still play a role.
Egg quality
Declining quality of eggs, which is common with age, or thyroid health or lifestyle choices such as environmental toxins, smoking and excessive alcohol consumption can impact embryo health, implantation, and pregnancy success rates.
Low AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone)
Lower AMH levels can indicate a reduced ovarian reserve, which may impact fertility and the success rate of assisted reproductive technologies.
Autoimmune disorders
Conditions such as lupus, celiac disease, or rheumatoid arthritis that may interfere with conception or pregnancy.
MTHFR variations
Certain variations in the MTHFR gene may increase the risk of miscarriage, particularly if linked to homocysteine metabolism issues.
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
An infection-related condition that can cause scarring of reproductive organs, often resulting from untreated STIs.
Fallopian tube health
Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes due to infection, surgery, or scarring, impeding the egg's journey to the uterus.
Ovarian cysts
Fluid-filled sacs on the ovaries, which can affect ovulation and overall fertility.
