How Can Traditional Chinese Medicine Support Your Journey to Conceive?

Embarking on the path to conception? Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) might be just what you need. Here's how it can help.

TCM takes a holistic approach to fertility by evaluating how your overall health affects your ability to conceive. A TCM practitioner will conduct a comprehensive review of your medical history and any previous tests to create a personalised diagnosis and treatment plan.

This approach considers the balance of yin and yang, the quality and circulation of blood, and the flow of energy (qi) in your body. Yin is essential for nourishing and hydrating, impacting egg quality, hormone balance, and the uterine lining. Yang supports warmth, circulation, and hormone regulation, all vital for fertility.

By enhancing energy and blood flow while restoring balance, TCM aims to optimise your fertility. We often help with a range of issues including IVF support, PCOS, endometriosis, irregular cycles, and unexplained infertility.

In your initial 60-minute consultation, our TCM practitioner Dr elise will explore your medical and reproductive history in detail. Using diagnostic techniques such as pulse and tongue analysis, we identify imbalances and develop a customised treatment plan. This plan may include acupuncture, herbal remedies, dietary advice, and lifestyle changes.

We’re here to support you on your fertility journey with the benefits of Chinese Medicine. Let us help you take control of your reproductive health!
