First, we need a real connection. A connection where you feel you can unload all your sadness, stress, frustration, your past, your present, and the fear of the future. It’s important because the burden of strong emotions can limit the impact of the energetic medicine, which is acupuncture.
Then, we need to meet weekly for 3 months. This is important because it’s a time where we identify issues, work on lifestyle changes, and take and interpret the basal body temperature. It’s a time where we regulate the cycle, make sure we understand when you ovulate, and address issues such as painful periods or ovulation, PMT, headaches, etc. It’s 3 months for a massive reset!
By that time, I will have identified if there are any issues we need to tackle outside of the acupuncture treatment. That could involve checking the vaginal microbiome, conducting blood tests that don’t seem right, and ensuring that anything not yet checked, such as the Thyroid, will be examined. If I feel it’s important, I will refer you to see a nutritionist, an endocrinologist, or another relevant consultant.
Am I saying that after these 3 months, you will be pregnant? Nope! Some women do, but most don’t. So what then? Then I keep seeing you, on average, every 3 weeks. Sometimes it can be every other week, sometimes once a month. We keep track of what’s going on with your cycle, the signs and symptoms, and the progress with the relevant consultants or therapists I’ve referred you to. I am here to help if you decide to undergo IVF. After that massive amount of work we did together for 3 months, I am here to coach you until you get pregnant.
How long does that take, in general? Most of my successful clients get pregnant within a year. But it has happened that I’ve followed clients for 2 years and ended up with successful stories too.
Fertility is a journey. Your journey. And I am here every step of the way.
