Infertility Treatment and Fertility Treatment
The treatment of infertility is one of the most satisfying areas of my practice.
It illustrates the stark difference between the approach of orthodox medicine and that of naturopathy and homeopathy. Natural treatments based on these disciplines respect the wisdom of the body and the life force and promote true health. Only restoration of true health will fix the underlying causes of infertility.
Homeopathic approaches to improve fertility will specifically:
- Modify inherited weaknesses (known as miasms),
- Undo the effects of the contraceptive pill (in my experience, the main culprit),
- Treat any underlying pathology such as PCOS, fibroids or endometriosis,
- Tone the reproductive system, balance hormones and ensure ovulation,
- Improve the quality of vaginal mucus and remove thrush, and
- Treat the whole person with a constitutional medicine.
I use this homeopathic approach to infertility in conjunction with naturopathic wisdom: a healthy diet and lifestyle.
I have developed this system through my own experience over 25 years, but I am indebted to the research and work of Australian homeopath Liz Lalor, who specialises in this area and has become internationally renowned. If a woman books for treatment of infertility, I ask for four months, with follow up visits each month to review changes in her cycle.
Most women, more than 50%, are pregnant in two months. My current success rate over the last eighteen months, since integrating Liz's methods is 93%, similar to her own. Remember that many of these women have been trying to fall pregnant for years, or have already been on IVF without success.
