22.01.2022 Egg health is one of the cornerstones of healthy fertility. The quality of your eggs (ovum) can affect whether or not fertilization and implantation will occur as well as the viability of a pregnancy. Poor egg health can be the result of numerous factors including age, diet, lifestyle, high stress levels or a hormonal imbalance. Most of the women with poor eggs have to choose in vitro fertilization (IVF). However IVF treatment doesnt improve the quality of your egg and therefore the successful rate is low if the egg quality is poor. There are several things they can do to improve egg quality and increase the chance of conception.

19.01.2022 Secondary infertility is the inability to become pregnant or to carry a baby to term after previously giving birth to a baby. For couples who conceived their first child fairly easily, it can come as a shock when they run into difficulty getting pregnant this time around.

17.01.2022 I think Acupuncture offers a complementary role in health across the board, and certainly does in fertility and reproductive medicine. I am very excited by this study because anything that is complementary and supportive of the journey that leads to a positive outcome is very important. I have found acupuncture to be an important component of the fertility treatment pathway. I encourage a complementary approach and believe that acupuncture has the positive impact of improving blood flow to the pelvis as well as reducing stress and anxiety. There is also the evidence that it may help implantation of the embryos and the post implantation chance of success, improving implantation rates as well which is what this study alludes to.

13.01.2022 During IVF or ICSI cycle, eggs are removed from the ovaries approximately 36 hours after taking the trigger injection. Customers who are going through IVF have often told me the day they most worry about is the day of their egg collection. Here is a list of TIPS that help prepare you physically and emotionally for egg retrieval, as well as ease the recovery and prepare the body for next steps.

12.01.2022 Follicle Stimulating Hormone (known as FSH) is a hormone that is commonly assessed to help predict a womans ovarian reserve or fertility. It can only be performed on day 2 or 3 of her menstrual cycle or the levels will not be accurate for this test. Levels of FSH are dependent upon a negative feedback system between the ovaries and the hypothalamus and pituitary glands. Most doctors suggest a level below 10 is associated with higher success while over 10 associates with a decrease in pregnancy rates.

10.01.2022 Nowadays more women are postponing their motherhood until the later age, giving priority to their career. When they are ready to start a family, some of them may find out they are having low anti-mullerian hormone or AMH level. This hormone reflect the number of eggs entering into maturation process. So low AMH level is a clear indication of the depleting egg reserve. There is no magic food to eat or medication to take that will miraculously raise AMH levels. And usually the fertility specialists would recommend the women with low AMH to start fertility treatments as soon as possible, like IUI or IVF/ICSI. Actually low egg reserve is not a crucial factor for the fertility. Women with very low AMH levels can still get pregnant if the quality of an egg is good.

10.01.2022 Morning sickness can occur at any time of the day. The cause is unknown although it has been linked to changes in the levels of various hormones during pregnancy. It usually starts at about the sixth week of pregnancy and settles by about the fourteenth week. As a mom and acupuncturist who have worked with many women through conception and pregnancy, Ive found that there are some tips that may help relieve morning sickness symptoms.

09.01.2022 Any unwanted, spontaneous pregnancy loss prior to the 20th week of pregnancy is considered a miscarriage. Miscarriages are a relatively common occurrence, affecting nearly 15% of all pregnancies. There are many possible causes of miscarriage, the most common is genetic abnormalities in the fetus.

08.01.2022 The lining of a womans uterus, also called the endometrium, is where a developing embryo implants in the first days of a pregnancy. For women undergoing IVF, the thickness of this lining is very important. The fertility doctor will measure the thickness of the lining before the embryo transfer, to ensure that it is sufficiently thick to allow for implantation. A thick, receptive, nourishing uterine lining is the best possible environment for the embryo, and the ideal lining is at least 7 to 8mm thick and displays a trilaminar (or three layered) appearance on an ultrasound. A too-thin uterine lining can be a serious problem in IVF, leading to failed implantation or display irregularity in their lining and early pregnancy loss.

08.01.2022 The sciatic nerve, the largest in the body, starts from the lower back, runs down the buttocks and branches down the back of the legs to the ankles and feet. In most cases sciatica sharp, shooting pain, tingling or numbness that starts in the back or buttocks and radiates all the way down the backs of your legs. Sciatica usually occur during the third trimester, when both you and your baby are bulking up (it can develop earlier, but its not common). Most women typically experience pain just on one side, though you may feel it in both legs. Sciatica can be constant or intermittent, depending on the amount of pressure placed on the nerve so pain may increase as you put on more weight and retain more fluid.
