Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART)
Some couples require assistance with ART to help them conceive their much desired child. Often this is due to medical conditions that interfere with the conception process, such as fallopian tube blockages or where sperm is required to be retrieved by biopsy.
Naturopathic support works well with couples who require IVF or other ART procedures, and you will be monitored carefully to ensure that there are no contraindications or drug/herb interactions (for example herbal remedies that can affect female hormones are NOT recommended whilst undergoing ART).
Recent research demonstrated that concurrent naturopathic treatment during IVF more than doubles conception success rates. Naturopathic treatment can assist with increasing your energy and vitality, attain a healthy weight and assist minimise any adverse effects from IVF treatment, including drug side effects, sleep disturbances, increased stress, fatigue and mood changes.
