Fertility issues can affect individuals or couples attempting to conceive and may stem from various factors. Both men and women can experience challenges related to fertility, including hormonal imbalances, reproductive system disorders, age-related decline in fertility, and lifestyle factors such as stress and poor nutrition. Common causes in women include ovulatory disorders, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and structural issues in the reproductive organs. In men, issues like low sperm count, poor sperm motility, or structural abnormalities can contribute to fertility problems.
Treatments we often recommend for fertility: Treatments will vary based on the underlying cause. Accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment are essential for effectively managing symptoms. At STRONG., we recommend seeking help through naturopathic medicine. A Naturopathic doctor can help optimize fertility for both men and women. Acupuncture (administered by your Naturopath) has been shown to help improve ovulation, cycle regularity, hormones, and reduce stress. Acupuncture can also help improve sperm motility, count, erectile dysfunction, and reduce stress. Your practitioner will also work with you to optimize prenatal nutrition and offer nutrients designed to improve ovulation, sperm count, motility, morphology, and pregnancy outcomes.
