Herbs For Infertility – Can Emotional Stress Prevent Pregnancy?
Infertility issues continue to affect 15-20 percent of couples in today’s society. Many of these couples have “normal findings” after standard medical exams and fertility evaluations have taken place. By definition, these couples have “unexplained infertility” and they are left with unanswered questions. Unanswered questions often lead to more emotional stress.
In women, stress disrupts the hormonal balance and communication between the brain, the pituitary, and the ovary. This leads to an interference with the ovulation process and the production and maturation of healthy eggs. When under stress, spasms can occur in both the uterus and fallopian tubes which also interfere with movement and implantation of a fertilized egg.
In men, emotional and physical stress are known factors that contribute to male infertility. Stress causes sperm counts, sperm motility, and structure of the sperm to be altered. Problems such as impotence and difficulties with ejaculation are often caused by over thinking and emotional stress.
The connection between stress and the inability to get pregnant has been studied throughout the years. In 1978, the Mind-Body Institute of Harvard Medical School started a ten-week program for women with unexplained infertility. The program focused on learning to shift from the stress response to the relaxation response and to this day, has an excellent track record in reducing women’s stress. From the women who were available for follow-up, 57 percent of them became pregnant within six months of completing the ten-week course. This certainly shows that reducing emotional stress definitely benefits in increasing fertility!
Along with stress-management programs, herbs for infertility have also been proven to relax the mind and body. Herbs such as passion flower, kava kava, white willow, valerian root, black cohosh, and hops have shown to reduce anxiety, depression, anger and fatigue, all of which are commonly part of the lives of people struggling to get pregnant.
Herbs can have a significant impact on the mind and body to reduce anxiety and increase relaxation which will help couples with unexplained infertility. Reducing stress through a herbal regime and relaxation may help normalize menstrual cycles, improve the health of both egg and sperm, and increase the likelihood of fertilization and implantation.

Dissolve Emotional Pain?Make it a Gift
Dissolve Emotional Pain?Make it a Gift
How many of you have trouble forgetting emotional pain? Perhaps you were upset with another or even, with yourself, for events that occurred in your life that were tragic. It is often hard to release the destructive emotions caused by others. There is a way to achieve freedom and change your reality, making your life much happier. You can do so by dissolving the pain. Nevertheless, how is this possible, you may ask?
Dissolve the perceived war. Over time, anger and distress you may feel towards others, regarding their involvement or lack of care can grow to such a degree that you may unconsciously feel as if you are at war. Realize that until you learn to release your hold on the war, it can affect you dramatically. You will continue to feel pain, which may result in any number of destructive outcomes. These may include depression, weight issues, illness, money or power problems, sexual performance, or relationship troubles.
Recognize that you have a choice. Either you can stay focused on your pain or you can choose to release it. Once you decide you want to feel better, it is not always easy to release the hurtful emotions that someone else may have caused. However, some steps may make it easier.
Hardships can bring beneficial results. Before you can feel relief and alter future events, it is necessary to understand that certain hardships in your life may have been beneficial. Could it be possible that even though someone may have wronged you, the situation may have resulted in your spiritual growth? Even if you cannot appreciate this concept, there is still a way to help dissolve any emotional pain.
Make your hardship a gift. Instead of remaining angry, see the adverse situation as a gift. A gift, you might ask? A true gift is one where a person does not expect anything in return. Therefore, by having a perceived war with another, are you not expecting that person to make up for your pain? However, if you perceive the trauma as a gift, you will not expect anything in return. You will simply release it.
Furthermore, you will be validating that your hardship did indeed bring beneficial results. After all, the loving act of giving is a constructive trait that not only lifts another’s spirit, but also will end up lifting yours as well, since you will be releasing destructive emotions.
