FEMALE INFERTILITY

By Rebecca Karchere

Female Infertility is becoming a more common gynecological disease with multiple causes. It is surely not caused by a lack of fertility drugs!!! Women have been successful using medications for fertility problems. However, there are always side effects, in particular an increased risk for developing cancer. Our bodies are organic. We are nurtured by organic materials that come from the food we ingest. Therefore, all the cells of the human body are built from food.

In my experience, many of cases I have seen have adrenal fatigue or exhausted adrenals. These glands regulate blood sugar levels. This is another common problem. Most Americans consume processed foods and caffeinated beverages that cause blood sugar swings.

One of the most common problems I see in my private practice, is an endocrine imbalance. The parts of the endocrine system relevant to female infertility include the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, adrenal glands, thyroid and ovaries. The adrenal glands are affected by all forms of stress that the body encounters on a daily basis including chemical, physical and emotional strains. The adrenals regulate your hormonal system.

Women who are having trouble conceiving typically have excessive estrogen. Common symptoms associated with estrogen dominance are fibroids, cysts, endometriosis, PMS, heavy menstruation, and pelvic inflammation of the uterus. In some cases, part or total obstruction of the oviduct and a history of induced abortion and/or habitual abortion are the cause.

In conclusion, infertility results from numerous causes. This article only gives a glimpse of the different challenges and medical issues women face in their quest to get pregnant. In my practice, I utilize a technique called Contact Reflex Analysis. This tool allows me to pinpoint the cause of the problem and promotes balance in the body. My clients and I work together to foster conception and a successful pregnancy using whole food supplements, herbs and individualized nutritional programs. This approach is safe, inexpensive with no adverse side effects. Feel free to call 203-334-3660 if you have any questions.
