Tcm And Endometriosis-related Infertility Posted: 05-25-05 03:07am
In chinese medicine, diseases and
imbalances are diagnosed as patterns.
A pattern is defined by the signs and
symptoms that a person exhibits, and
patients will often present more than one
pattern.
Chinese medicine believes that blood
travels both in the blood vessels and also
in the energy meridians of the body.
It sounds strange to say that blood can
circulate in an energy meridian, but blood
has several aspects in chinese medicine.
There is the physical aspect of blood
– the blood that you see when you cut
yourself – and this physical aspect only
circulates in the blood vessels.
There is also the energetic, or functional
aspect of blood, which can travel in both
blood and energy vessels. The whole

Cigarette Smoke May Harm Fertility Posted: 05-30-05 00:40am
New research suggests that exposure to
other people's cigarette smoke may damage
a woman's fertility, especially if she
needs the help of an infertility clinic to
get pregnant.
It has long been known that smokers have
reduced fertility, but the effect of
secondhand smoke on the ability to get
pregnant is unknown.
