Hello and thank you for such a wonderful resource.

I am diagnosed with anovulation and amenorrhea, and I have been TTC for approximately 7 months. My OBGYN wants me to try Clomid next month, but I decided to give TCM a try before trying Clomid. I began acupuncture 2 weeks ago and 4 days after my first session, I had confirmed ovulation for only the 2nd time in my life. I am very pleased with the acupuncture and I enjoy it very much.

My acupuncturist recommended Si Wu Tang Wan. My question is this: Is it safe to take this herb throughout my entire cycle? Even during my luteal phase? I am currently 4 days into my luteal phase and I am nervous about the herb. Will it harm the embryo or decrease chances of implantation?

Thank you so much for any information that you can share.
