Are Natural Fertility Treatments Right For Me?

Have you been trying to conceive a child for at least 1 year without any success? For most doctors, this would qualify for an infertility diagnosis. Infertility is common, around 10% of women in the United States under the age of 44 and around 7.5% of men under the age of 45 experience it. Many people turn to medical technology such as intra-uterine insemination, in vitro fertilization or even ovulation-promoting all known as Assisted Reproductive Technologies. Many of these treatment options can be expensive and taxing on those trying to conceive. Success rates are also quite low.

Clearwater Natural Infertility Treatments: What To Expect

Research in the last few decades have shown quite successful rates of fertility when acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine are used in conjunction with other Assisted Reproductive Technologies. With Dawn Potter, weekly acupuncture treatments for 4-6 weeks, followed by bi-weekly treatments monthly are often recommended. This treatment is combined with Chinese herbs until successful pregnancy. If your doctor has recommended herbs not be taken during fertility treatment in Clearwater with Dawn Potter, twice weekly acupuncture appointments during the assisted cycle will be recommended. The protocol is used for all patients regardless of gender.

Genetics, lifestyle, lack of sleep, diet, stress and various other factors can impact the immune system and contribute to dysfunction.

Clearwater Acupuncture for Immune Support?

According to a study performed by the University of Madrid, Spain, the most favorable immune function effects of acupuncture treatment occur about 72 hours after a single session, persisting about one month after the end of the completed treatment. The immune functions of women with anxiety in the study were significantly improved.

Acupuncture treatment can help the patient’s body regulate immune function while treating the underlying cause of the immune function issues. Acupuncture can reduce symptoms and speed up the healing process in the body. Acupuncture works by stimulating specific acupoints through the autonomic nervous system, causing the immune system to respond with a rise in levels of messenger hormones.
