Idiopathic Infertility the diagnosis with the most questions.
3 out of 10 couples who are diagnosed with infertility have what is know as idiopathic infertility. Idiopathic is a fancy medical way of saying “we have no idea why you can’t conceive.”
Sarah and Dan of Newnan were one such couple. “We wanted to wait a few years after we got married to start a family.” Dan explained “We were only in our late 20s and we thought we would get pregnant right away, just like our friends.”
Sarah was told to wait one whole year of being off of birth control before she could talk to her OBGYN about not getting pregnant as quickly as she expected. She waited and waited for her appointment feeling like she was wasting precious time. When the appointment finally came, and had a battery of labs run.
“When the lab results finally came back, nothing was wrong!” She remembers. “I was just so frustrated! Their only option was to start medicated timed cycles, or just jump right into IUI. I didn't want to do any of that if nothing was wrong.”
Sarah is not alone. Idiopathic infertility is one of the most frustrating diagnoses that our patients come to us with. With nothing to point to as the obvious cause of their problem, most couples feel lost up a creek without a paddle, and not sure where to begin looking for solutions.
“Sarah was getting more and more anxious, joining fertility Facebook groups left and right,” remembers Dan “She was obsessed. I was starting to worry. That was before we found Dr. Mara at Peachtree City Acupuncture. She was the only one who gave us a clear plan, and guided us every step of the way.”
Young couples without a clear reason for their infertility woes, make excellent candidates for an integrative approach. Acupuncture combined with ATP Bioresonance Therapy® and with targeted herbal medicine yield amazing results in helping couples conceive.
“Not only that,” explains Klarissa, a clinical assistant at Peachtree City Acupuncture, “Our patients conceive because they are getting healthier, balancing their hormones, and preparing their bodies for pregnancy.”
Dr. Mara is a member of the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, and a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. She brings over 15 years of clinical experience and a healing touch to the couples she supports through conception, pregnancy, and the birth of their babies.
“It is an extremely rewarding field to be in.” Says Dr. Mara “It is a blessing to be able to support families on their journey to parenthood. We have quite the beautiful group of acu-babies coming up in the Peachtree City area!”
“I followed Dr. Mara’s plan to the letter.” glows Sarah “And six months into our nine month plan I fell pregnant with baby Emerson. I am so grateful to have been able to do this the natural way.”
