For 20 years, I have worked with people on their journey to conceive and enhance their fertility. Acupuncture and herbal medicine has been clinically studied and recognized for their potential benefits in supporting reproductive health. Let’s dive into some clinical evidence that sheds light on these ancient practices.
Acupuncture:
-
A study published in the journal Fertility and Sterility found that women who received acupuncture treatments experienced higher pregnancy rates compared to those who underwent sham treatments.
-
A systematic review published in the Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine journal revealed that acupuncture improved the success rates of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
-
Research in the journal Human Reproduction Update suggested that acupuncture may help regulate hormone levels, improve blood flow to the reproductive organs, and alleviate stress, all of which could positively impact fertility.
Herbal Medicine:
-
The Journal of Reproductive Medicine published a study that found a traditional Chinese herbal formula improved pregnancy rates among women undergoing IVF treatment.
-
A review in the International Journal of Women’s Health examined the potential benefits of herbal medicine for female infertility, suggesting that various herbs may help regulate hormones, reduce stress, and improve ovarian function.
-
A clinical trial in the Chinese Medical Sciences Journal found that a combination of acupuncture and herbal medicine significantly increased the pregnancy rate among women with unexplained infertility.
In conclusion, the combination of acupuncture and herbal medicine offers promising support for people on their fertility journey. I can combine a personalized treatment plan that also includes an optimized nutritional plan to boost fertility.
