The inability to beome parents can happen to both men and women, and the reasons are many and varied. However, it’s important for both sexes to undergo treatment for this complicated issue. Various known and unknown factors cause infertility in women. These include diseases like endometriosis, diminished ovarian reserve, ovulation disorders, and low progesterone level. Low sperm count and low sperm mobility, STD, injury or chronic conditions, sperm obstruction and ageing are some of the reasons men for, which suffer.
Prescribed medication and ongoing treatment will enable most of the aforementioned problems to be cured (not including ageing and chronic ailments), although these treatments are quite expensive and may have harmful unwanted effects. Supplementary treatment may be required to cure the side effects. Treatments conducted through IVF or In Vitro Fertilization and ICSI or Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection is best among the other methods of infertility treatment. In this technique, the egg cells outside the womb are fertilized by the sperm and then transferred inside. This treatment is suggested when other techniques fail to give results. This technique is a hormonally controlled ovulation progression. In this treatment, the ova is removed from the female’s ovaries and helps the sperm to fertilize in a fluid medium. But this is not a standard process at all and involves excavation of the eggs from the ovary, fertilizing them in an outside laboratory and returning them to the uterus. In the normal process, the human decides to pick the healthiest sperm for reproducing the egg but in the artificial method, the embryologist takes this choice. However, when he fails to collect the healthiest sperm and egg, it may cause the ill health of the child in the course of birth and possibly for years to come.
Some alternative techniques with a holistic approach are fast becoming popular in order to cure the problem of secondary infertility. These techniques are all the more preferred by people as these have less or no side effects at all.
The acupuncture method, for example, especially ear acupuncture or Auricular is very effective in cases where female infertility has been caused by some kind of malfunction of the ovary. The hormonal message that is transferred from brain to ovary is the most effective result received from this practice. In accordance to the investigative trials, those women who have received acupuncture treatment for about 30 times within a time period of 3 months have shown good results. Those female who underwent hormonal remedies along with it suffered from side effects.
In the other treatment techniques, diet and lifestyle changes are given a lot of importance. Habitual intake of such things that contain caffeine like coffee, chocolate, cocoa, green tea (containing caffeine), black tea and colored soft drinks which has harmful effects on conception is discouraged. According to a study, one and a half cup of coffee for a woman who is trying for pregnancy is sure to delay her conception. Therfore, coffee is not recommended for infertile patients.
Diets that include fish contaminated with PCB or Polychlorinated Biphenyls are also believed to be a cause for substantial reduction in the capacity to become pregnant. In accordance to one study, women who had more than one meal containing fish contaminated with PCBs (procured from Lake Ontario), developed reduced fecundity within a month.
The best outcome for the treatment of infertility has been reported through the Chinese medicines, acupuncture and of course, the holistic approach. The holistic approach reaches to the depth of the problem and only then delivers physical, spiritual as well as emotional treatment, rather than only investigating the organs. On the other side, the normal approach to the issue of infertility fails to effectively detect and remove the real causes and moreover, causes unintended effects. The holistic approach suggests a natural remedy and a way of life that can really solve the problem as soon as the real cause is determined.
