Posted by Shasta Tierra on May 4th, 2018

We can’t arguably deny the fact that infertility is one of the rising problems in today’s world. If found in woman, it can be a pretty devastating and traumatic emotional event and may leave the woman feeling like she is suffering alone. According to a recent study by CDC, it was found that nearly 10% (6.1 million) of the women age between 15-44 in the USA suffer from the problem of infertility or low fertility. Moreover, the reasons for infertility in women are still unknown or difficult to find. Due to this, it’s hard to diagnose the causes of infertility in women. But the good news is that our body is capable of reversing the problem of infertility naturally if given the correct treatment.

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, holistic fertility treatment such as acupuncture can bring back the fertility of a woman if applied correctly and consistently. Traditional Chinese Medicine teaches that we have several energy channels called meridians that run through our bodies and these meridians help nourish our tissues. It further states that any imbalance or disruption in the flow of these meridians can cause mental and physical illness and that also includes infertility. However, with the insertion of needles at specific points, which is the sole purpose of acupuncture, the flow of energy gets back and reverse the symptoms of infertility.

However, after the current research done on the application of acupuncture to treat the problem of infertility, the theory is different from what Chinese Traditional Medicine states. According to the scientific study, by needling the body on specific points, the chemicals and hormones are triggered and released throughout the body that helps in recovering the hormonal balance and affect the body’s internal regulating system. This improved hormonal balance triggers body’s self-healing process which eventually improves the mental, physical, and emotional wellness.

More studies carried out on acupuncture and its effect on infertility; it was found that acupuncture also helps in increasing the number of feel-good hormones such as Beta-Endorphins. Furthermore, it was also seen that acupuncture increases the pregnancy success rate by 50% by improving the blood flow to the uterus.

If you are among the souls who are suffering from infertility and finding it difficult to get pregnant and missing the joy of giving birth to life, opting for holistic fertility treatment such as acupuncture is the step to becoming pregnant and experiencing the delight of becoming a mother.
