Heather was 36 years old when she came in for acupuncture for fertlitiy enhancemnt. She tried clomid without success. She had "regular complaints" I usually see in the clinic such as irregular periods. But she also had some other concerns that made her treatment interesting.
She has a transplanted Kidney and Pancreas with high creatin levels. The locations of these organs brought up concerns of acupuncture point energetics still being appropriate.
Her Doctors also told her no herbs. Her Doctors were concerned about elevating her immune system which would have a negative impact on her transplanted Kidneys and pancreas. Regulate a period and promote regular ovulation without herbs is a challenge. Gyneacology in Chinese Medcine rely's heavily on herbs. Heather and I worked together on her diet and she ate "herbal nutrition". With her Doctors permission Heather ate goji berries regularly and nourished herself with a healthy diet. Heather came in twice a week for several months. Her periods and ovulaiton became regular. Eventually I got the call that every fertility acupuncturist wants to hear.
