Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine for secondary infertility due to severe Endometriosis

Overcoming Secondary Infertility Caused by Severe Endometriosis with Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine

A woman in her early 40s came to us after struggling with secondary infertility. She had been diagnosed with severe endometriosis and adhesions, which, due to their location, made surgical intervention unfeasible. Alongside her fertility challenges, she experienced debilitating symptoms, including:

• - Severe menstrual pain

• - Passing large blood clots

• - Poor sleep quality

• - Weak digestion

  
  

These symptoms not only affected her physical health but also took a toll on her emotional well-being.

Treatment Approach

We developed a comprehensive treatment plan combining acupuncture, acupressure, and customized Chinese herbal medicine. Over time, these therapies worked synergistically to address her underlying imbalances, alleviate her symptoms, and improve her overall health.

Remarkable Outcomes

• Symptom Relief: Her severe period pain, clotting, and digestive issues resolved entirely.

• Improved Sleep: She began experiencing restful, rejuvenating sleep.

• Natural Conception: After two years of consistent treatment, she successfully conceived naturally—a testament to her body’s restored balance and vitality. (Updated in 2025: she felt pregnant naturally again!)

   

Tongue Diagnosis: A Visual Journey

Tongue diagnosis played a key role in monitoring her progress. At her first session, her tongue displayed a scarlet red tongue body with deep teeth marks and swollen edges, indicating significant internal imbalances. By the end of treatment, her tongue showed remarkable improvement, reflecting her enhanced overall health.

This case underscores the power of acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine in addressing complex conditions like endometriosis and infertility. By focusing on holistic healing and restoring balance, we were able to support her journey to motherhood and improved well-being.
