I am usually a skeptic when it comes to traditional Chinese medicine what with the recent milk scandal in China et al. It has gone horribly wrong before for people I know but it has also worked for some. For me personally, I have gone to the Chinese medicine shop to tell them I had a persistent cough which normal cough mixtures couldn’t cure and they gave me a pill to take. After 2 days, my cough was gone. So that worked. Thankfully, I havent been unfortunate in getting the negative ill effects of Chinese medicine yet.

Recently, I heard from several sources that people have gotten pregnant via this route through taking herbs to warm up the womb to enable stronger pregnancies, meaning that the early foetus actually attaches to the uterus and sticks. Many a time, it doesn’t because our wombs are too ‘cold’. So out of curiousity, I researched some Chinese sinsehs in town and decided on the one that gave the most results to whom I personally know of and went to see him.

The first thing the Doctor said was that I need to stress less and relax about getting pregnant. Makes sense. Then he told me that especially during the time of my period, to not eat fruits and salads on an empty stomach and not to ever drink cold drinks. Because these diets cause the body, womb included, to lose its warmth. If one is healthy, pregnancy shouldn’t be a problem if there are no other medical issues aside like endometriosis, small fallopian tubes, PCOS and other malfunctions of the body. He also advised that during my period, I should cook my food with sesame oil everyday and eat more ginger.

The next step would be for my husband to be checked if his boys are healthy.

If I am following his healthy diet and the Hubs boys are good, but we’re still not getting pregnant, then he would prescribe me some herbs to further warm up the womb. Usually, this has always had a success rate within a few months at maximum.

I personally know of 5 women who have gotten pregnant after taking these herbs. Watch this space.
