The ancient Chinese followed
the laws of nature. The rules and guidelines which
they followed thousands of years ago are just as relevant
to us today. In terms of the relationship between
Chinese herbs and fertility, there is a lot to be
considered. Of course, they didn't have the technology
which doctors do today to help them diagnose problems
so instead, relied on observation and external examination.
This might have included listening carefully to a
patient's voice,
looking at the whites of their eyes
and considering their emotional state.
Generally, Chinese medicine recognizes
that we all have a vital life force (known as "Qi")
which is said to move along invisible pathways along
the body. These pathways go through the vital organs
and are related to acupuncture points. It is the management
of the energy flow between these organs which is thought,
by some, to be more relevant for helping women to
conceive as although Chinese herbs and fertility are
linked, herbal preparations are generally given less
significance than acupuncture.
There are about 150 different
herbs which can be used in preparations. For most
cases of infertility, up to 15 different herbs are
used in combination, but the main herbs which might
be used to aid fertility include ginseng, codonopsis,
atractylodes, astragalus, gardenia,
phellodendron, patrinia, and lonicera.
It is estimated that after 3-6 months, balance in
the body is restored when using Chinese herbal preparations
and that around 70% of women will become pregnant
within around 8 months.
What is absolutely crucial is that
you understand that the use of Chinese herbs and
fertility treatment must be done by a qualified
practitioner who has a good reputation. Also, if
you decide to use herbal preparations, these should
ideally be used as part of a comprehensive holistic
system rather than in isolation.
There is a holistic system which is
based on the principles of ancient Chinese medicine
which enables most women to become pregnant quickly
by following some simple yet explosive steps. If
you have been trying to conceive for a few months,
you may wish to implement this tried and tested
system rather than leaving matters completely to
chance.
