The Biggest Joy
I share with you my story and the way Dr. Zhou helped me realize my biggest dream: to be a mother.

La Mas Grande Dicha
Comparto con ustedes mi historia y la forma en la que la Dra. Zhou me ayudó a realizar mi más grande sueño: el ser mamá.

Our Journey to Conceive
After a stillbirth at 36 weeks of pregnancy (conceived by IUI) and 6 attempted IUI/IVF cycles, my husband and I were feeling hopeless. I was 39 years old and my fertility specialist told me that he had done all he could do to help us get pregnant.

I Got Pregnant Naturally When My FSH Level Over 80
About three years ago, my husband and I decided to have a second baby. After trying for two years with no luck, we decided to go see a specialist, who did numerous tests on me... 

That Fourth Month, I Got Pregnant
I was 39 when we decided to try a second time to have a child. My first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage, and recovery was difficult until I started seeing Dr. Zhou. After my first acupuncture treatment and about three days into drinking the Chinese herbs she prescribed, I was back to my energetic, healthy self...

Pregnant Naturally at 40!
My first son was conceived when I was 34 and born when my husband and I were both 35. He was conceived in our second month of trying, so we expected our second child might come quickly as well.  We waited to start "trying" until our son was 3 1/2, to give us time to save for expenses for a second child. I was 38 1/2 when we started trying again. 

Natural Pregnancy with High FSH (Part 2)
After having my first child I waited a little over a year to try to get pregnant again.  I stopped breastfeeding and returned to Dr. Zhou before trying anything else.  She began the acupuncture once a week and instructed me to drink the herbal teas twice a day.

After two failed IVF, I conceived naturally with the help of acupuncture
Our journey with infertility began in 2003 when I was diagnosed with a Fibroid, which was then surgically removed. 

Recent Clinical Studies

Current Research
Changes in serum cortisol and prolactin associated with acupuncture during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation in women undergoing in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer treatment 

Paul C. Magarelli, M.D., Diane K. Cridennda, L.Ac., and Mel Cohen, Ph.D. 

Objective: To determine whether changes in serum cortisol (CORT) and PRL are affected by acupuncture (Ac) in Ac-treated IVF patients. 
Design: Prospective cohort clinical study. 
Setting: Private practice reproductive endocrinology and infertility clinic and private practice acupuncture consortium. 
Patient(s): Sixty-seven reproductive-age infertile women undergoing IVF. 
Intervention(s): Blood samples were obtained from all consenting new infertility patients and serum CORT and serum PRL were obtained prospectively. Patients were grouped as controls (IVF with no Ac) and treated (IVF with Ac) according to acupuncture protocols derived from randomized controlled trials. 
Main Outcome Measure(s): Serum levels of CORT and PRL were measured and synchronized with medication stimulation days of the IVF cycle (e.g., day 2 of stimulation, day 3, etc.). Reproductive outcomes were collected according to Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology protocols, and results were compared between controls and those patients treated with Ac. 
Result(s): CORT levels in Ac group were significantly higher on IVF medication days 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, and 13 compared with controls. PRL levels in the Ac group were significantly higher on IVF medication days 5, 6, 7, and 8 compared with controls. 
Conclusion(s): In this study, there appears to be a beneficial regulation of CORT and PRL in the Ac group during the medication phase of the IVF treatment with a trend toward more normal fertile cycle dynamics. (Fertil Steril 2008;by American Society for Reproductive Medicine.)

Acupuncture and Menopause
Acupuncture and Menopause: Creating Physical and Emotional Health with Acupuncture
    
With its close understanding of the female body, Oriental medicine has always addressed the special needs of women throughout their lives. Menopause, in particular, is an area in which Oriental Medicine shines. Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine have the ability to detect energetic changes that occur in the body and quickly relieve uncomfortable symptoms that accompany the onset of menopause.

What is Menopause?
Menopause is a transitional period marking the cessation of ovulation in a woman's body. Most women stop menstruating between the ages of 48 and 52, but symptoms can begin as early as 35. Symptoms vary from mild to severe, and are brought on as our bodies try to adapt to decreasing amounts of estrogen. Symptoms include hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, fatigue, mood swings, memory loss, vaginal dryness, headaches, joint pain, and weight gain.

From an Eastern Perspective
According to Oriental Medical theory, menopause occurs when a woman's body begins to preserve blood and energy in order to sustain her. The kidney is the organ system in Oriental Medicine that is viewed as the root of reproduction, vitality and longevity. Menopause signifies the depletion of the fertility essence stored within the kidneys. Blood and essence from the kidneys are conserved and cycled through the body to nourish the woman's spirit and extend her longevity. Thus, in Oriental Medicine, menopause is seen as true change in life from mother to enlightened and wise being...
