Acupuncture and Hay Fever
Acupuncture and Hay Fever Written by Dr Sonya Rosenbrock, Bairnsdale clinic. Spring is in the air, there are pretty flowers everywhere.

The Main Causes of Infertility
What are the Main Causes of Infertility? Causes of Infertility Around 10-15% of women experience infertility problems. It’s a statistic that appears to be increasing. But what’s causing it? Anyone reading this is probably well aware of the main causes of infertility according to Western medicine. These include age, tube disorders, endometriosis, PCOS, fibroids and pelvic inflammatory disease. But what are the main causes from a natural medicine perspective? Some are similar to conventional medicine but with identified causes. And others are very specific to natural medicine, which looks at your fertility more holistically.

Your Fertility Cup
Your Fertility Cup In natural medicine much of your fertility and reproductive function comes down to the strength of your Kidneys. Your Kidneys are the source of your strength in being to generate new life through conception and carrying to term. Strong Kidney function means stronger fertility. We liken your Kidney strength to a cup. If your cup is full then it can overflow into new life easily. If it is not, then it will be more difficult to conceive. We call it your Fertility Cup*. How full your cup is depends on the following: What you were born with Some people are born with full cups and others are not. Generally, the younger you were at menarche the more full your cup was. How hard you’ve worked Working hard (mentally or physically) for long...

Warm Up to Fill Your Fertility Cup
Warm Up to Fill Your Fertility Cup If you are too cold you may have trouble conceiving. Being too cold can affect digestive enzyme and hormone production to affect fertility. Also, a cold uterus does not encourage the formation of new life. How do you know if you are too cold? If you feel cold (ie. nobody other than you is wearing a jumper, you hate cold weather, or you simply feel cold all the time) then you are probably too cold. If your waking oral temperature is less than 36.4 degrees then you are too cold. To do this you need to buy an oral thermometer (one you put under your tongue) and take your temperature when you wake – but before you get out of bed. If...
