High FSH Level

by Geetha
(UK)

Dear Amelia,
I'm concerned about my high FSH level. I am 37 years old and my husband is 38 years. We have one daughter, who is 7 years old. We have been trying for our second baby for nearly 3 years.

My FSH level is 9. We tried one IVF cycle, but unfortunately it was not successful. I would like to know how acupunture will help us. Kindly reply.

Sincerely,
Geetha

High FSH Level
by: Amelia Hirota

Hi Geetha,
An FSH level of 9 is not high. This is a completely normal level and does not indicate low ovarian reserve. From the little bit of information that I have, you are not a candidate for IVF. IVF is for women with blocked tubes or in the case of severely low sperm quality.

Acupuncture, herbs and the principles of traditional Chinese medicine may help you by balancing your hormones and deeply nourishing your body. I would recommend signing up for my Fertility Teleclasses to start working on reclaiming your fertility.

It seems to me that you would be helped by fully understanding where your body stands in terms of fertility. An FSH of 9 is no reason to do IVF. It would be in your best interest to chart your cycle, learn how to find a good acupuncturist, understand the various diagnostic tests and learn more about evaluating male fertility.

If you would like to respond. I'd be interested to hear about your partner's sperm count, motility and morphology. Also, how many eggs were retrieved in your IVF cycle and what percentage were fertilized?

Go to my Free Fertility Teleclass download one of my classes to listen to before putting yourself through another IVF cycle.

After 2 failed IVFs, I promised my husband and Amelia that I'd take that much needed break and give acupuncture and herbs a good, honest try. Refusing to give up hope, but barely holding onto any, I continued with Amelia and sure enough we found out we were pregnant the following month. This time we were pregnant "naturally"!

Needless to say we had the Providence Reproductive Endocrinology department scratching their heads in disbelief, all the while Amelia never wavering in her confidence to help see this happen just as it was meant to, naturally.

If it weren't for the amazingly passionate, intelligent and loving care of Amelia- I could very well be carrying some anonymous donor egg inside of my body and celebrating on a much different level.

My name is Nicole and I started working with Amelia after not getting my period for several months after going off birth control pills. I had been on and off birth control pills for 10 years and was ready to start trying for a baby.

At 28 years old (and my husband was 29) we could not imagine that we would have problems conceiving. After 3 months and lots of tests with my OBGYN, I was encouraged to try acupuncture because there were no "medical" reasons why I wasn't getting my period.

After just one appointment with Amelia I got my period and after just 3 or 4 months, I was pregnant. I am now 32 weeks and due in September. We are so excited to meet our baby boy!

I would strongly encourage any woman to give acupuncture a try if they are having trouble conceiving or even just having trouble getting their body ready for conception. Best of luck to all of you!
