TCM Male Infertility
Infertility is a complex issue that affects many couples worldwide, and it is a common misconception to solely attribute it to problems in women. It is important to note that male infertility can also be a significant contributing factor. In fact, male infertility is the cause of 50% of couples who struggle with conceiving. Many factors, including lifestyle and environmental changes, can significantly impact male fertility. TCM has long recognised the importance of male fertility and offers a unique perspective on how to improve it.
TCM’s perspective on male infertility is based on the principles of balance and harmony within the body. According to TCM, male infertility is often linked to imbalances in the body, which can affect the reproductive system’s function.
One of the core concepts of TCM is the Kidney system, which is believed to govern the reproductive system, including male fertility. The Kidney is responsible for storing Jing, a vital substance that is essential for reproductive health and longevity.
However, the Kidney system can be weakened due to various factors, including age, stress and poor diet. This can result in challenges such as low sperm count, poor sperm quality (including sperm motility and morphology), and erectile dysfunction.
Supporting Men in Achieving Optimal Reproductive Health
TCM physicians view the body as a holistic system and believe that imbalances in the body can affect reproductive health. By addressing the underlying imbalances through natural therapies, TCM offers a holistic and effective approach to improving fertility.
Whether it is through dietary modifications, herbal remedies, acupuncture or other natural therapies, TCM can support men in achieving optimal reproductive health. If you or someone you know is struggling with male infertility, consider exploring the benefits of TCM and taking the first step towards improving your reproductive health naturally.
With a strong dedication to supporting couples to realise their fertility goals, Thomson Chinese Medicine provides customised fertility programmes that cater to individual needs.
Alcohol is considered a damp toxin that can negatively impact male fertility, affecting the liver which is responsible for detoxifying the body and regulating the Qi flow. Cutting down or removing alcohol entirely from your diet reduces the burden on the liver and improves overall Qi and blood circulation. This enhances your reproductive function, including higher sperm count and better sperm quality.
