Fertility

Understanding Infertility

Infertility affects millions of couples, yet it’s often misunderstood. According to the National Survey of Family Growth, about 6.7 million women (10.9%) between the ages of 15-44 face challenges conceiving. Of these, 1.5 million (6%) of married women struggle with infertility. However, fertility issues are not exclusive to women. Studies show that 30-40% of infertility cases are due to male factors, while another 30-40% are female-related. The remaining cases often stem from unexplained causes like environmental toxins, nutritional deficiencies, stress, or energy imbalances.

Common Infertility Treatments

Conventional medicine provides assisted reproductive technologies like IVF (in-vitro fertilization) and ICSI (Intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection). While these treatments address structural and hormonal causes of infertility, they often overlook other crucial factors such as:

  • Environmental toxins
  • Metabolic imbalances
  • Dietary deficiencies
  • Emotional and psychological stress

Because of these overlooked factors, many reproductive specialists now recommend natural, holistic treatments such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, and nutrition therapy to complement traditional fertility protocols.

A Holistic Approach to Fertility

At Merge Medical Center, we believe infertility should be treated as a whole-body issue rather than just a reproductive condition. Many underlying factors can contribute to fertility challenges, including:

  • Dietary imbalances
  • Hormonal disruptions
  • Subclinical infections
  • Exposure to environmental toxins
  • Side effects of prescription drugs

Our holistic fertility doctors conduct advanced hormone, toxin, and nutritional testing to uncover the root cause of fertility challenges. We then create a personalized plan that may include hormone therapy, detoxification, customized diets, and herbal support.

The Role of Stress in Infertility

Did you know that stress can directly impact fertility? When the body is under stress, it releases high levels of cortisol, which disrupts hormone balance and interferes with ovulation, fertilization, and implantation. Acupuncture, herbal therapy, and stress management techniques can help restore hormonal harmony and prepare the body for conception. Many couples considering IVF or IUI work with us beforehand to optimize their health, increasing their chances of a healthy pregnancy and successful birth.

Our Focus is getting to the root cause of symptoms and treating them with natural solutions before disease sets in.
