Fertility is an important topic, especially for couples looking to or trying to get pregnant. In Canada, recent statistics show that 1 in 6 couples experience infertility with the causes being complex and multi layered.
We are speaking with Dr. Katarine Holewa, a Naturopathic Physician and Registered Acupuncturist about her approach to infertility. She has a special focus in this area from her prior career as a Registered Nurse in the NICU and post and anti partum care as well as from a naturopathic and Chinese medicine perspective.
She answers the questions about what infertility is, how common a problem it is, what causes infertility in men and women and most importantly natural solutions to ensure a healthy and happy outcome for the whole family, including baby!
Other topics we cover:
+ appropriate testing and interpretation
+ hormones involved with successful conception and birth
+ how acupuncture works at achieving balance and is used at each stage from pre conception to delivery
+ what an appointment looks like
+ most importantly Dr. Holewa shares a couple of success stories!
