When a woman is told she is infertile her world can come crumbling down.
Her first thought will be for the loss of a baby she will never have and the next may be fear that her husband will not want her any more A situation as sad as this can make a woman feel inadequate and she may lose interest in sex with her partner as a result of it.
This puts a terrible strain on the relationship and the couple may find themselves in crisis.
This may come after years of trying to get pregnant until they both could not take the emotional turmoil of every failed try.
If it were the woman who experienced difficulties she would have endured drugs being constantly pumped into her body and a range of painful treatments.
As the couple started to feel like baby making robots the relationship would have suffered.
Gone would have been the spontaneity of making love replaced by a regime of cycles and windows of opportunity leaving them wondering what happened to having a baby the natural way.
They would have invested great amounts of money into programs like IVF which are not cheap and would be starting to feel obsessed about getting pregnant They would feel like they are living and breathing baby making and the fertility center would become their second home.
Perhaps if a caring friend put a leaflet through their mailbox advertising a natural infertility clinic they might get out of the rut they are in.
The constant disappointment from not getting pregnant has an interesting effect on couples.
Instead of wondering if there was another more effective way to conceive they would be driven to keep going.
It is like a race and the finishing line is still in sight, Just the news that another couple in their situation had managed to get pregnant would spur them on to keep trying.
This is a bit like fools gold though as sometimes it is better to take a breath and look at other options.
Mankind's instinct is to keep the human race going so this is why people go to such lengths to do their part.
A woman may be fed up with fertility clinics and there treatments but may not tell her partner for fear he will look elsewhere.
He may not be aware of how she is feeling and be doing it for her also.
If they pulled away from the treatments for a while tool a second homey moon and relaxed they may begin telling each other how they feel.
Stopping and taking stock of a situation like this is really important.
as it is so easy to get carried away.
That desire for a baby can.
make sane people crazy for a time.
I cannot send you a leaflet but I can tell you there are other ways to get pregnant.
These ones entail a bit of work but it will be worth it.
At worst you will have a resolution instead of going on for years while a lot of people get rich and your relationship dies a little every day.
At best and this is the part I like a baby within months of trying.
Now you may be thinking if modern medicine cannot get us pregnant what kind of voodoo or herbal leaves are going to do the job.
So how did women with problems like nasty cysts on their ovaries and painful endometriosis (I can vouch for that one) ever manage to have babies before fertility clinics came along? What about older women whose reproductive eggs were getting past the use by date, what laboratories were there in ancient times to fertilize the eggs then miraculously put them back into the mothers womb? In fact how did the human race manage to keep going before the advent of modern science? It did because there were other techniques and methods in place.
The Chinese famous for their acupuncture and acupressure techniques were ahead of their time when it came to helping infertile women.
We are talking about thousands of years to master their craft and they did as they have helped many women to break that infertility cycle.
The problem with the world we live in today is we rely on others and things to amuse and heal us.
We take pills and feel better because they squash the symptoms.
But do they fix the problem? Did you know that when our bodies are out of balance it is the reproductive system that is first to hit the ground? Great news I expect for fertility centers that are overloaded with infertile women seeking answers.
Our fast food diets are destroying our bodies, as is the pollution in the air and the stress associated with fast living.
This is like a poisonous cocktail going into our systems and making us unwell.
Infertility is on the rise and you have to wonder how much we are aiding and abetting it.
The answer is a holistic approach.
This is a natural way to heal the body using diet, exercise, acupuncture and herbal medicines.
Now when you say that word once again a lot of people start to talk about quacks and witch doctors.
It amazes me how forward and backward as a human race we have become.
We think because we have been smart enough to invent modern medicine that we should totally abandon the ways of the past.
What will come of this disaster will be present in our future children as the side effects of conventional fertility treatments leave their mark.
When you get pregnant the fist thing you are told is to quit smoking and stay away from alcohol.
So why do we accept massive amounts of drugs injected into us and invasive treatments that we are told could reverse our infertility? We sure are a trusting lot I think.
What long-term effects will that have on our baby or I should say babies (multiple births are common from conventional fertility treatments) when they have been created this way.
If you still believe that modern fertility treatments are for you then give yourself a time limit on it.
If you reach it without a positive result try a holistic program to get pregnant.
Many have and there are healthy babies to prove it.
