As per the best naturopaths in Sydney, the natural approach to treating infertility aims to address its root causes, by addressing all of the body systems, rather than just focusing solely on the reproductive system. Many couples who can’t fall pregnant suffer from a combination of sub-clinical conditions. These conditions can’t cause infertility on their own but in combination, they can substantially reduce a couple’s probability of conceiving.
Our experience in Solutions to Health
Over years our natural fertility specialist, Dorota Wroblewska along with other certified naturopathists have helped thousands of couples overcome infertility to create healthy babies and happy families, even when other treatments have failed. In our experience the clients dealt, all have in common is that they face a combination of multiple undiagnosed fertility challenges and it is helping people to identify their individual fertility issues and then to make the necessary lifestyle changes, that enables us to help so many couples.
We help couples take control of their health and reclaim their natural fertility by giving couples the best possible chance of creating the healthy baby of their dreams. It can be either naturally or through IVF/ICSI when absolutely necessary. For specific, personal advice are recommended to figure out the actual cause of infertility. Our session with the patients helps us ascertain if we can help them to achieve results like so many of our patient success stories.
The advice offered does not replace that given to you by your own medical caregivers and fertility specialists. We encourage everyone to take full responsibility for their own health and well-being, more importantly we understand that successfully overcoming fertility issues demands both personal responsibility and accountability. This means patients must consult with a naturopathist in Sydney who has knowledge on women’s health naturopath.
How fertility problems are treated through naturopathy?
Naturopathic medicines are licensed products that are used in the profession. Naturopaths must complete an undergraduate degree, complete the Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine program at an accredited school, and pass several exams before bestowing their services. Continuing of education is pivotal for all specialists.
The philosophy of naturopath practices is to support the body in doing what it is naturally meant to do. It is believed that this should be first-line treatment for infertility. From a naturopathic perspective, you cannot improve your fertility without improving your overall health. In fact, menstrual cycle patterns can be a sensitive indicator of overall health. Infertility treatment is a holistic assessment. Different areas of a patient’s life are asked in order to find clues as to what may be contributing to infertility. For example, poor sleep can reduce melatonin levels. Supplementing with melatonin appears to improve rates of IVF success.
Determining menstrual cycle patterns
Menstrual cycle symptoms can provide information about the function of sex hormones. For example, increased premenstrual breast tenderness indicates that the influence of estrogen is too high. Best naturopaths in Sydney are able to order and interpret lab tests. This includes tests related to sex hormone function, ovarian reserve, semen analysis and more. Specialized tests may also be used, including food sensitivity testing. Physical exams can reveal information about hormone function. For example, breast underdevelopment, indicated by the size of the areola, can reveal a longstanding deficiency of progesterone.
The results of assessment determine the treatment plan. Naturopathic treatment of infertility includes nutrition advice, lifestyle changes, nutritional supplements and herbal medicine. These treatments are supported by scientific evidence. Here are some examples.
Nutrition advice
Following a diet high in vegetables and low in snacks increases the likelihood of pregnancy with in vitro fertilization.
Lifestyle changes
Timing intercourse to happen during the couple’s fertile window can resolve some cases of infertility. This can be accomplished by basal body temperature monitoring, use of LH test strips or monitoring changes in cervical mucous.
Nutritional supplements
Taking supplements can impact the quality of egg and sperm cells. Taking fish oil supplements can improve sperm quantity and quality. This may be because of the high concentration of polyunsaturated fats within sperm cells.
Herbal medicine
Ovulatory disturbance is a common cause of infertility. Taking the herb black cohosh has been found to improve the likelihood of ovulation.
Stay away from trans fats
Did you know that consuming trans fats hidden in foods, such as doughnuts, biscuits, lollies, candy, chocolate, chips, pies, fries, and thousands of other foods may increase your risk of infertility by as much as 70%? Scientists advise women wanting to get pregnant to avoid all trans fats. Trans fats are mostly listed as ‘hydrogenated fat’ or ‘hardened vegetable fat’ or simply ‘vegetable fat’.
Naturopathic and conventional treatment can and should be pursued simultaneously. There are things a naturopathic doctor cannot do that a conventional fertility specialist can. Imaging tests, prescriptions and assisted reproductive technologies for example. It is believed that all options should be on the table and none should be excluded based on whether they are ‘natural’ or not. The point is to have a baby, not to win a philosophical debate! As a rule of thumb, stay focused to recognized and reputed centers of fertility naturopaths in Sydney. They can certainly extract out the problem from your life.
