Male Factor Infertility Treatment Plan
Acubalance is dedicated to treating infertility and improving male reproductive health. Our Male Factor Infertility Treatment Plan offers quality treatment of infertility in Vancouver.
If you (or your husband) has a pathological sperm presentation, which is a contributing factor, then of course he should be treated. Remember, our goal is not simply for you to get pregnant, but for you to give birth to a healthy baby. And to increase the chances of having a health baby it is best to increase both partners' well being before attempting to conceive.
The following is a 2 month treatment program to optimize health & fertility. If IVF/ICSI is still needed, the literature supports our treatments will help improve your outcome.
2 Month Treatment Plan
Diet & Lifestyle modifications
- Primarily paleolithic dietary principles, weight training, and work/play balance is discussed.
- Handful of brazil nuts (source of selenium)
- Handful of pumpkin seeds (source of zinc)
Supplementation
- FertilAid for Men (male fertility supplement)
- Omega 3 fatty acid (Fish oil)
- Co Q10
- whole food antioxidant (frequensea)
Chinese herbal medicine
- Powder concentrates or raw herbals made into a tea
Acupuncture
- Twice a week for 5 weeks (current literature supports this frequency)
As a minimum he should follow some dietary & lifestyle changes and take supplements aimed at improving sperm quality and quantity.
Optimally, if you (or your husband) does not have an aversion to 'wellness centres' then there is great benefit from acupuncture treatments twice per week for 2 months, especially if stress may be negatively contributing to overall health.
If acupuncture twice per week for 2 months is not possible, then at the very least, Chinese herbal medicine & supplements should be administered (for 3-6 months).
