Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a long history of treatment of infertility and miscarriage. Records indicated that the first herbal use date was back to 200 A.D and the famous ancient medical text Shang Han Lun mentioned some formulas that are still used for those purposes today. The traditional Chinese views are that infertility tends to arise from one or more of three prominent causes: a "deficiency" syndrome prevents the hormonal system from properly influencing the sexual and reproductive functions; a "stagnancy" syndrome prevents the sexual and reproductive organs from functioning despite normal hormone levels and normal ability to respond to hormones, and a "heat" syndrome, which causes the affected organs to function abnormally.

Western medicine can diagnose infertility with obstruction of the fallopian tubes, amenorrhea, absent ovulation, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, low sperm count, nonliquification of semen etc. However, Standing with the holistic healing process, TCM usually diagnoses the pattens of syndromes such as deficiency, stagnancy or phlegm syndromes. The treatment of TCM for infertility can be very useful as it is focuses on devising herb and acupuncture formulas for the specific pattern of disharmony, differentiated by signs and symptoms. Kidney, liver and spleen are the most common concerned disharmony organs. Some laboratory experiments have demonstrated the hormonal effects of Chinese herbs. Those herbs used to treat impotence and infertility and to prevent miscarriage. Some clinical studies in China have revealed that around 70% of all cases of infertility are successfully pregnant after treated by TCM.

With respects of in vitro fertilization (IVF), acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine may significantly benefit the outcome of this procedure. An experiment in the US indicated that using Chinese medicine as an adjunct to IVF increases the success rate of in vitro fertilization by as much as 50%. IVF patients are given herbs and acupuncture at several critical stages during the procedure. At the first stage, when birth controls pills are administered to regulate hormonal activity, herbs and acupuncture are used to insure smooth flow to the ovaries. Next, when drugs are given to stimulate egg production, Chinese herbs and acupuncture are used to ease the stimulating side effects of the drugs. Similar herbs are also used before implantation to relax the muscles, prevent contraction, and better enable the embryo to implant upon the uterus.

Prior to seeking for TCM, all couples that fail to conceive should undergo a complete medical examination by a physician to determine the cause of the infertility. That allows TCM practitioner to better understanding your health condition and determine the treatment plan as TCM may has less effect on congenital or structure abnormity. However one advantage of the Chinese herbal approach is that even if pregnancy does not occur, benefits to health can be attained because the herbs address imbalances that affect other aspects of health besides infertility.

Milo Milosevic

Dip. Naturopathy, Cert. Iridology, Scio-Bioresonance Therapist, Member of the ATMS, Naturopath, Iridologist.

I have seen many people in my life who are unwell. Unless you are shown how to be well by someone who knows, it all may seem too hard. I was first introduced to Natural Therapies when I was 23 and having vision problems. I considered myself to be young and fairly healthy until I had my first naturopath appointment; from there I learnt how I could improve my health physically, emotionally and mentally.

Today no one is born knowing how to be healthy or well. Influences from our environment, diet and genetics all play a role in preventing us from feeling as well as we can. Over the last 30 years I have acquired knowledge and understanding of the way our bodies work and my aim is to share this knowledge with you, so that we can work together to manage your health.

Do you need a Naturopath that can provide you with health coaching support as well as natural medicine solutions?  Don’t be overwhelmed by treatment demands. Healing options and support is available.

Many health problems that seem so complicated or appear to have no known causes have solutions. Physical healing is available to you. Evidence based scientifically researched non-toxic high quality natural medicines offer the possibility of a breakthrough.

Added to this the combination of Nutritional Medicine, Lifestyle Advice and Herbal Medicine offered by Doreen helps you to achieve clinical success. Along with a treatment plan Doreen offers emotional and spiritual support and Bio-integrated.

Five Reasons to See a Naturopath:

1. You want to make informed decisions about your health.  Naturopaths are not just a second opinion from another doctor.  They have a completely different philosophy and set of therapeutic methods.  The typical patient of naturopathic medicine is quite knowledgeable and wants to understand the complexities of their condition.

2. You want to be treated as a person, not a disease.  Modern medicine is based mainly on the diagnosis of disease.  Once a diagnosis is made, you are labelled and given the same treatment that everyone else with that disease gets.  If it doesn’t work, the “patient has failed the treatment”.  One of the core philosophies in naturopathy is that we treat people, not disease.  In addition, there are many different remedies for an indicated disease as every patient manifests disease differently.

3. You prefer to use natural substances.  Leading a clean and healthy lifestyle can contribute to a long life.  Often, natural substances have fewer side effects and can promote health.  Naturopaths are extensively trained in all aspects of natural therapies.  They are the recognized experts in their field.

4. You want to cure the problem, not mask the symptoms.  For many chronic diseases pharmaceuticals only stop or help your symptoms.  Once the pharmaceuticals are stopped, symptoms reappear and for some the side effects of    pharmaceuticals can be undesirable. A Naturopath chooses natural remedies to address the underlying cause of symptoms.

5.  You may have uncommon and complex health issues. Naturopaths have a broad understanding of many aspects of holistic medicine and health.  Many people with uncommon health issues seek out Naturopaths when they realize that modern medicine is not helping them.

4.
