Infertility


Infertility can be a very emotionally draining problem to combat. Many people will not openly admit that there is a problem because of embarrassment. Infertility affects thousands of couples every year and is nothing to be embarrassed about. It does not make a man less of a man or a woman any less of a woman. It is simply a medical issue that can generally be overcome.
In order to properly address the problem of infertility, it is usually necessary to figure out whether the man or woman is infertile. This is not a matter of pointing fingers or laying blame, but simply a step toward a resolution. Both men and women can have problems that cause infertility. For men the problem may be low sperm count, sperm obstruction, chronic infections or advanced age. Women can be affected by various infections, low ovarian stockpile, depleted progesterone layers, disorders of ovulation, or other issues. The cause can generally only be determined by a doctor or sometimes a specialist.
Many of us may or may not be aware, meditation is a way of promoting our body's self-healing mechanisms. Meditation benefits by stress reduction, increased relaxation thus reducing the levels of stress hormones produced by the pituitary and adrenal glands, both are endocrine glands which secret hormones into our bloodstream necessary for normal growth and development, reproduction, and homeostasis. Keep in mind that the major glands of the endocrine system include the hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, islets of Algerians, adrenals, parathyroids, ovaries, and testes. As defined by physicians, infertility is the inability of a female to become pregnant after approximately a year of unprotected sexual intercourse. It has been believed by our ancient pundits on this topic that complimenting meditation with herbalism generally increases fertility in both men and women barring no other major, contributory biological and physiological dysfunctions.
