Infertility - (Some of the possible causes of delays in conceiving)
PROBLEM 1: INADEQUATE HYPOTHALAMUS FUNCTION
Inadequate functioning of the hypothalamus, resulting from poor feedback mechanisms or stress. The hypothalamus is extremely sensitive to emotions, as well as to xenobiotics (chemicals that mimic hormones), which are derived from plastic waste and hormone fed animals, and which may reduce stimulation of the pituitary gland.
Genetic defects or tumours can also affect hypothalamic-pituitary access.
Prolactin (from stress or breastfeeding) also inhibits pituitary release of the Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and prevents ovulation.
The stress reducing effects of the medication contained in Ferti-boost™are capable of regulating the release of a hormone called ACTH, which is responsible for stimulating cortisol production (the stress hormone). The Homoeopathic medication acts on the hypothalamus' response to the hormone. The Western herbal medication reduces prolactin and promotes LH, which stimulates ovulation.
PROBLEM 2: SLOW OESTROGEN PRODUCTION THROUGH: Weak response of the follicle, or lack of oestrogen precursors, or poor quality follicles, or FSH resistance.
Ferti-boost™ is designed to improve the response of receptor sites to the hormones. It acts as supportive nutrition, which aids in hormone production. Energetic stimulation of the body improves the quality of the hormones and tissues, enhancing their ability to function properly.
PROBLEM 3: OVER PRODUCTION OF CORTISOL Stress causes adrenal over-stimulation, and the result is the increased production of cortisol, the long-term stress hormone, which uses up much-needed progesterone. The long-term effect is low oestrogen, progesterone and testosterone.
The basis of Ferti-boost™ therapy is reducing over-production of cortisone, while stimulating the production of testosterone and oestrogen from progesterone. Lifestyle and diet play a crucial role in adrenal and cortisol over-production.
PROBLEM 4: TOO HIGH/LOW PROGESTERONE LEVEL Too low or too high a progesterone level can result in cyst formation and endometriosis, PMS, breast tenderness and painful periods. Too high a level may cause early ovulation with ovum maturity, and too low a level may cause delayed ovulation and poor ovum maturation, as well as delayed periods.
Ferti-boost™, in accordance with traditional Chinese Medicine, is a blood and Qi stimulator, and a stagnation mover. It supports ovum maturation without over-stimulating the system, creating equilibrium between FSH, oestrogen and ovum response. It also prevents uterine congestion, which is a cause of period pain.
PROBLEM 5: LOW OESTROGEN LEVELS Low oestrogen levels will cause LH not to trigger ovulation, without which no ovarian progesterone is produced. When progesterone levels are too low, or there is poor tissue response to progesterone, the endometrium remains immature and the result is delayed, heavy and painful periods.
Ferti-boost™ balances progesterone levels by stimulating LH production and reducing prolactin. By reducing cortisol levels, your progesterone levels rise and result in a more favourable oestrogen and endometrium response. The blood-nourishing response promotes a healthy endometrium and improved nutritive and circulatory responses to the hormones.
PROBLEM 6: POOR SPERM PRODUCTION Low FSH hampers sperm production. Sperm needs testosterone to mature, but modern lifestyles and stress interfere with consistent levels of testosterone needed to sustain 70 days' worth of sperm production
The Yang formulation of the Chinese herbal component of the Ferti-boost™ pack, and the supportive effect of the Western formula, energise and provide nutritional support for the manufacture and differentiation of sperm, under the positive influence of a consistent testosterone level. Homoeopathy ensures that the testes can respond appropriately to hormone stimulation.
PROBLEM 7: POST-PRODUCTION DAMAGE TO SPERM Healthy sperm may be damaged post-production by oxidation, infection, alcohol, acidity, high blood sugar levels and smoking. Coffee, high sugar intake, red meat and beer also interfere with enzymatic and nutritive support of the prostatic fluid, which the sperm need to make the journey through the uterus to the fallopian tubes in order for conception to occur.
Lifestyle changes are crucial to deal with the serious repercussions of poor habits. Ferti-boost™ provides antioxidant support, promoting healthy functioning of prostate and sperm.
PROBLEM 8: ACIDIC VAGINAL ENVIRONMENT The vaginal environment, mucus secretions and cilial action of the uterine lining and fallopian tube, all aid in the sperm's journey. Acidity interferes with the vaginal mucus membranes and cilia, and an acidic vaginal environment is hostile to sperm. Delayed ovulation affects the mucus protection offered to the sperm by the normal vaginal environment, which prevents passage of the sperm through the cervix into the uterus.
Avoiding acid-forming food, like wheat and sugar, provides a healthy intrauterine and vaginal environment. Ferti-boost™ promotes healthy levels of LH and ovulation, which liquefies the cervical mucus.
