TCM is a highly effective method of treatment for those who are healthy, but unable to conceive. Acupuncture and herbal medicine are gentle and effective. Many women do not require fertility drugs or medically assisted reproductive techniques, yet they go through months of physical and emotional agony, not to mention the financial burden. TCM is safe, natural, cost-effective and has no side effects. TCM can help patients struggling with fertility to become stronger and help them create a healthier environment for a harmonious pregnancy. In addition, TCM increases the likelihood of conception for those patients who opt for fertility drugs or medically assisted fertilization techniques.

Research has shown acupuncture can effect and rebalance the endocrine system which produces hormones. The energetic pathways (meridians) on which the acupuncture points are located can influence the internal reproductive organs as well as effect the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, which is responsible for ovulation and sperm production. Certain Chinese medicinals contain natural energetic substances whose essence gently corrects underlying deficiencies or removes obstructions.
