More evidence that Acupuncture/Chinese Medicine helps those with fertility challenges

I keep reading study results like this one and don't understand why more couples don't consider a natural medicine either before they start on hormonal and physical procedures or in conjunction with them. All hormonal and physical procedures cause more qi and blood stagnation so why not combat that using acupuncture?! Additionally, research has demonstrated that women who undergo hormonal procedures are at a higher risk for certain gynecological cancers. I've said this for years: our hormonal systems are BASIC to our existence, they don't tolerate hormonal intervention very well. http://medicalxpress.com/news/2012-01-traditional-chinese-medicine-fertility-treatments.html

Chinese herbs shown effective for treating fertility issues!

A recent study from the Adelaide University titled “Efficacy of Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine in the management of female infertility: A systematic review” found that that “Chinese herbal therapy improved pregnancy rates as much as 2-fold in just a 4-month period in comparison with Western Medical fertility drug therapy or IVF.”

Digestive issues during pregnancy successfully treated with acupuncture

This study further demonstrates that acupuncture during pregnancy is a good thing! We know that Chinese Medicine successfully treats fertility issues and women should continue treatment during and AFTER their pregnancy. Building and delivering another human being is the hardest thing your body will ever do on its own. Get treatment to rebuild your qi, blood, and immune system after delivery.
