- [Sweating, flashing and fertility](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/sweating-flashing-and-fertility/) - In the confusing world of fertility, where do hot flashes and night sweats belong? From a Western medical point of view, these problems have no influence on the success of conception. From a Chinese medicine view, hot flashing/night sweats indicate an imbalance of a women’s energy. Balanced energy is important and can be thought

Part 2](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/pcos-what-is-going-wrong-part-1-of-2/) - My previous article described the basic theory behind follicular growth.With that basic theory we can look at what is can happen when hormones and receptors don’t work properly.

When asked “Do you have problems with your menstrual cycle?” most women will answer its normal. It has become clear to me that women have little knowledge of what a normal
- [Inositol Supplementation Instead of Metformin For PCOS Women](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/inositol-supplementation-instead-of-metformin-for-pcos-women/) - Inositol, a member of the B-vitamin family, has been center of great interest.

- [OHSS and Trigger Shots](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/ohss-and-trigger-shots/) - As usual, the journal Fertility and Sterility has tons of interesting research.

- [SIRM and the Poor Responder](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/sirm-and-the-poor-responder/) - SIRM has a local clinic close to my office. I just finished treating a client who completed a cycle with SIRM, with great success! She was refused by 2 other fertility clinics due to her long and complicated history. I think for some women SIRM offers interesting protocols and strategies for couples with usual cases.

Treatment time is long, but acupuncture and herbs are successful in decreasing the amount of
- [Supplements and Ovulation](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/supplements-and-ovulation/) - I find most women who come to me for fertility issues are not taking supplements and have a poor diet. Even with moderate healthy eating habits, women are still not getting the vitamins and minerals to support proper ovulation, thyroid function and metabolism. Thus it is important to supplement our bodies with multi-vitamins and minerals.
- [Inhibin A and B – A Sign of Fertility?](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/inhibin-a-and-b-a-sign-of-fertility/) - There is much debate in the fertility profession about the inhibin hormones, which could be an indicator of egg abundance and quality. Research has found Inhibin B to be an good indicator of the number of follicles recruited for the current menstrual cycle. The higher Inhibin B is, the great number of follicles is present

Many of my clients struggle to cope and get washed away
- [What Does Unexplained Infertility Mean?](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/what-does-unexplained-infertility-mean/) - Many of my clients have the diagnosis of unexplained infertility, the big mysterious void of fertility. This common diagnosis causes women to feel helpless and confused – “how can everything be ok but I haven’t gotten pregnant?” Western medicine has made huge leaps in assisting couples in conceiving, but they don’t have explanations for many
- [Lowering Estrogen with DIM and possibly Improving Egg Quality](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/lowering-estrogen-with-dim-and-possibly-improving-egg-quality/) - One common problem I treat is estrogen dominance (ED). The ED I discuss in this article will focus on ovarian produced estrogen. ED arises from 2 common scenarios: Over producing ovaries leading to high levels of estrogen in the blood. The biggest culprit is ovarian cysts - such a PCOS or functional cysts (functional cyst

When diagnosed surgery is the common treatment to remove as much of the inflamed tissue and freeing any organs ensnared in it. Surgery can not completely resolve the issue and endometriosis can be hard to

I bet you have been told to “just relax” or “take a long vacation”. Yes, stress has a big impact on reproductive health, but “just relaxing” does not solve the whole
- [Shopping for a Fertility Home](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/shopping-for-a-fertility-home/) - I thought it may be helpful to describe everything I have learned about assisting clients in picking a clinic that matches up with fertility health. First - ALWAYS REMEMBER - BE AN EDUCATED CONSUMER. I cannot emphamize this enough. Fertility treatments involve so much emotion that it is easy to lose perspective. Read, research and
- [High FSH in Young Women does not Equal Poor Egg Quality](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/high-fsh-in-young-women-does-not-equal-poor-egg-quality/) - If you have been diagnosed with high FSH, often doctors view this as predictor of depleted ovarian reserve and poor egg quality. This article focuses its’ research behind the correlation of high FSH and miscarriage.

- [Not only infertility, but low bone density.](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/not-only-infertility-but-low-bone-density/) - This week’s article discusses the correlation between low ovarian reserve and bone density. From a Chinese perspective this makes sense, especially when women are experiencing hot flashing (HF) and night sweating (NS). These two symptoms are commonly found in the kidney yin deficiency pattern. The kidney energy is the primary source of reproductive reserves. Just
- [Women’s misconception of IVF](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/womens-misconception-of-ivf/) - Since I started specializing in fertility, I have noticed a common belief in which women trust their fertility will stay strong until the early forties. As part of the treatment process, I discuss family planning with all reproductive aged women. There are so many misconceptions around fertility and beliefs about when to conceive, most young
- [The Number Game](https://ridgefieldacupuncture.com/infertility-treatment/the-number-game/) - So many of my clients define themselves by the number they are given by Western medicine. This number game involves age, FSH, antral follicle count or AMA results. Number readings can feel like a heavy burden in this journey to conceive. One of my clients, K. experienced the number game. She wanted to reach
