I Got Pregnant Naturally 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. Although my period had been regular while breastfeeding, once I stopped it became much more irregular. I feared what the doctors had told me, that premature ovarian failure was causing symptoms of early menopause. Nevertheless, I followed Dr. Zhou’s advice. About three or four months later I ovulated on Day 25 of my cycle, assuming I had missed the chance to get pregnant. To my surprise, a couple weeks later I found out I was pregnant. I continued going to acupuncture until the baby’s heartbeat was visible. I delivered another healthy baby boy at 37.5 weeks. Needless to say, if I decided to try to have another child, I would return to Dr. Zhou immediately. I cannot thank her enough. Without her, I would not have my two wonderful children.
