38 - Super & ICSI failure - Pregnant Naturally

 Overview:
38 year old client had been trying for 3 years without success.  Her and her husband, who had borderline issues with sperm motility & count, underwent one super-ovulation and one IVF/ICSI neither of which were successful. The client also complained of pms symptoms such as breast tenderness, cramping, bloating, headaches, moodiness, nightsweats, and sleep disturbances.  At this stage in her fertility journey, she was also diagnosed with clinical depression and anxiety.  
 Treatment:
This couple embraced the shift from trying to 'make' a baby to focus on nurturing their overall well-being and living a balanced life in order to feel fertile and inviting to life.  Both partners committed to a program involving moderate exercise (yoga/gym), a reduced inflammatory foods diet (starting with a three week Mediclear cleanse), acupuncture once a week and custom Chinese herbs on a daily basis. 
 Outcome:
Throughout the program, the pms symptoms diminished if not disappeared, and the depression and anxiety symptoms were also relieved.  After her third menstrual cycle, she was pregnant and her son is now almost 1 year old!
