PCOS Fertility Treatment 

The choice of starting a family is liberating. But unfortunately, not everyone is presented with this option as easily in their life as others. Managing PCOS and requiring treatment for it is every woman’s right to allow themselves to live a healthy and fulfilled life. If you or anyone you know is suffering from PCOS, they deserve all encouragement to get it treated.

PCOS

PCOS is the most common metabolic disorder affecting women today, and goes undetected in approximately 75% of the women who have this disorder.  

PCOS causes the ovaries to produce an unusual amount of male sex hormones called androgens. These hormones are present within the female body but in smaller amounts. However, these hormones go into overdrive when a woman suffers from PCOS.

This leads to multiple complications with the regularities of the female body, such as PMS, menstruation, fertility, and pregnancy. Although the term PCOS defines cysts as a symptom of the affected ovaries, some women may not get cysts despite suffering from PCOS, and while some may develop cysts, they would not have the disease itself.

The Use of Chinese Medicine & Acupuncture in PCOS

Traditional Chinese medicine, based on the concepts of Qi, has been known to work against PCOS and its symptoms. Qi is an ancient Chinese concept of using the energy of the force of life running within our bodies and balancing out the Yin and Yang of our system. TCM uses the perspective of syndromes as compared to focusing on one specific disease.

That’s how experts can help you realize that there might be numerous reasons behind your developing symptoms, not just one. Thus opening more ways of addressing and treating it. So standard medical practices entail women taking medicine to alter their conditions and are limited to such ways to wait for positive results.

However, TCM recommends conducting acupuncture. The idea is to filter out all the phlegm and moisture from the uterus and other female organs to create a nourishing environment for the system with clarified blood traveling to all body parts. Acupuncture has shown results in nourishing the body from within and facilitating natural ovulation.

As of 2017, The World Health Organization (WHO) reported statistics that over 116 million women are affected by PCOS in one way or other. As PCOS is a complex condition, it is known to lead to worrying symptoms that put the patient at high risk for more perplexing diseases like diabetes, cardiovascular disorder, infertility, and even psychotic imbalances.

Navigating PCOS: From Struggle to Joy

 

How Reproductive Wellness made a difference


"Dear Katie and the Reproductive Wellness team,
Thank you so much for James’ adorable onesie! He loves it!

We feel so grateful for all your help and support this past year. You all played a critical role in helping to bring James into this world. When I first came to RW I was struggling with symptoms related to PCOS and was concerned (and pessimistic) I might not be able to get pregnant. Under Katie’s amazing care, I learned to better manage my PCOS, became pregnant within a few months, and had a relatively easy and healthy pregnancy. In addition to being highly empathic and attuned to her client’s needs, Katie is an incredibly skilled and knowledgeable acupuncturist. I also want to acknowledge the wonderful front desk team for being so warm and professional and Marc for his very informative videos.

Thank you again for all of your help!"
