Hello-
I was wondering if you had any information on miscarriage prevention and acupuncture? I am a 29 year old female that has suffered from two prior miscarriages with no other children. We have seen an RE and all tests have come back "normal".
Your website is wonderful! I am lucky to have found it online!

Chinese medicine and preventing future miscarriages

Hi D,

I am sorry to hear about your two losses. It is positive to know that there are no known western medical reason for why you have miscarried. Also, your age of 29 leads me to think that age is not a factor. I have put some links at the bottom that specifically answer your question/request. My suggestion is to help make your self luck for the next attempt and see if there are some areas of your health that can be improved. A Chinese medical doctor may be able to point out some subtle imbalances that are contributing to your fertility. Again, i am sorry about your miscarriages. I really hop ethe third time is a charm for you.

 

Chinese medicine and preventing future miscarriages:
Chinese medicine also discusses how one’s reproductive potential declines with aging. Both a man’s and woman’s essence (reproductive function) declines with aging, meaning that the building blocks that will later constitutes a fetus (sperm and egg cells) decline in their quality and are thus less likely to mature into a healthy embryo. Thus the rate of infertility and miscarriage increases with aging or activities that consume your essence (poor nutrition, over exertion.. basically sex drugs and rock & roll).

Miscarriage prevention and preconception care involves increasing the health of both parents at least three to six months before conception to ensure that the sperm, egg and uterus is optimized so that the best possible conditions are created for a healthy pregnancy. Thus preventative treatment for the gametes (sperm and egg) is important to lower the chances of abnormalities. This is easier to achieve in males, as sperms are constantly reproduced and thus can be influenced. However, some literature suggest the nourishment and development of the female follicle can be influenced by Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture, so that a healthier egg is released.

 

Here is some info that you have requested. I wish there were more studies and better ones to support miscarriage prevention through better lifestyle. Here are some links that may be of use to you.
