Boston,
If you like a lot of women in today’s’ world have left having a baby till later you may need a little extra help to get pregnant.
Your eggs are as old as you are.
Because women are born with all the reproductive eggs they will ever need for having babies they age with us. If you are 40 years old so are your eggs. Sometimes because the eggs are getting a little older problems can ensue so we need to do everything we can to get them as healthy as possible.
Self help
This starts with us as we can do a lot to increase our own personal well being giving the eggs a better chance at fertilization. It is a well-known fact that as women get older the chances of becoming pregnant are slimmer but by working on us from the inside out the chances of conceiving become a lot better.
Fertility treatments expensive and not guaranteed
I know a lot of women go through fertility treatments when they are older and one of them is IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) where eggs are taken from a woman and fertilized with the male sperm in a laboratory then placed back into the womans’ uterus. The idea being they can choose the best egg under the microscope to fertilize. This is an expensive and time consuming process with no guarantees as some women spend years on this program waiting for that all important news that they are finally pregnant.
The natural choice
This is why so many women are becoming aware of more natural options. Some are forced to confront a more holistic approach, as they do not have the kind of finance required to see conventional fertility treatments through.
Chinese acupuncture for infertility
One treatment being quietly brought to the frontline of modern medicine is Chinese acupuncture. This is where long thin needles are placed in energy or meridian points in the body. (It is fairly painless) The Chinese believe that if the body is sick then the energy flow throughout the body is out of balance so they manipulate these points to restore the balance of health. They also use Chinese herbal medicine along with this treatment and the success rates with helping infertile women have babies is enough for modern medicine to consider acupuncture as an addition to conventional fertility treatments. Some women who have been on the IVF program for a long time have tried acupuncture as a last attempt to get pregnant and have been successful.
Looking After Yourself Is The Key
Have you noticed there are women in there forties who look younger than their years? For some it may be genetics but for the majority it is a healthy lifestyle that keeps them looking good. These women tend to eat really well making sure they have a good intake of fruit and vegetables along with supplements and they probably exercise regularly as well. They would be aware of how smoking ages a woman very quickly and as does too much alcohol. These women have a positive attitude to life and believe in themselves also.
You can get pregnant
So even though they may be 42 years old their reproductive eggs could well be younger in terms of health. What you do to help yourself can make such a difference if you want to get pregnant for the first time when you are older. You need to get your mindset in place that it is achievable.
Another factor in older women is their FSH (Follicle Stimulating Follicle) levels The pituitary glad in our bodies is responsible for releasing this hormone which encourages the growth of eggs in a woman and sperm in men. Without this hormone men and women would not be able to procreate. Testing the levels of FSH can determine how many healthy eggs are available for reproduction. This is done with a blood test generally on the second or third day of your menstrual cycle. High levels of FSH suggest that you have what is called a low ovarian reserve. (Not many viable eggs) In a conventional fertility center aggressive treatment by way of drugs or IVF may be used to help a woman conceive but there are other ways to achieve this also.
Chinese herbal medicines improve egg quality
Chinese herbal formulas are used to take high FSH levels down by nourishing the liver and kidney. These medicines are used to also nourish the reproductive system, which causes the eggs that have been lying dormant to develop to the point they are ready for ovulation. Acupuncture alongside with these medicines send more blood to the ovaries and uterus improving the quality of those all-important eggs that can make an older woman pregnant.
The great thing about using these natural methods is that they tend to reverse infertility permanently as they get to the source of the problem. Women have reported getting pregnant very quickly after beginning natural treatments like those described.
