Product Description
For thousands of years, Chinese women have trusted traditional Chinese medicine to help them conceive. A recent medical study found that women who augmented Western fertility treatments with TCM, traditional Chinese medicine, doubled their chances of a succesful pregnancy. THE INFERTILITY CURE gives women an effective, natural means of supporting their efforts to get pregnant. Based on techniques and remedies drawn from traditional Chinese medicine, this program shows readers how to increase their overall health and well-being, strengthen the organs and systems vital to reproduction, heal specific conditions that may affect fertility, and even support Western-based reproductive technology such as IVF and hormone therapy. Dr. Lewis' easy-to-follow program begins with diagnosis, using an extensive questionnaire to determine each reader's unique diagnostic category. The next three steps involve bringing a woman's body back into balance through diet, acupressure, and Chinese herbs. By following this program, women will be able to create a welcoming physical and emotional environment for what they desire most: a child.

 Gives me hope September 3, 2010
Madeline Talent
While reading this book I feel a sense of hope now than before. I appreciate the author/doctor for creating this book and letting the world know that you can conceive naturally with TCM.
 not so August 27, 2010
Mnemosine (Forest Park, IL USA)
I have to admit this book gave me hope, but that is as far as help goes. I did not find anything there that I could not find already online. I went to the retreat, paid an expensive plane ticket, expensive hotel and put my time in facing a group of other suffering women only to find that the retreat did not tell me much beyond what you find online either. Once there, I was told that to have a consultation with Randine, I would have to come to yet another retreat. I feel that the book is just a teaser with lots of chinese terms that have the purpose of intriguing. Same with the retreat, yet the help may never come. In my view, this is just another plot to get a business going and I fell for it. In fact, I stopped eating wheat, milk and started a pretty lean diet with supplements. The result after a couple years is dry hair, ridged nails and other indications of nutritional deficiencies. I hope this helps other women in my situation. I think this business is ok to try for a wealthy individual that can pay enough money to get Randine's attention. Please be careful!

I got this book as it was recommended by another yoga teacher. I loaned it to a friend and she is very encouraged by it. This is a good reference book.
Very Informative August 16, 2010
Natalie
What I like was that the writer was a western woman having to deal with infertility. She is also a OBGYN and has worked in the USA and worked in China at the hospitals. She gives her experience and advice. I was able to look at her charts and see where accupuncture would work best and my accupuncture did everything to detail that her book said. I was able to see that my personal fertility problems were a blocked tube. This book gives you hope and lots of information.

For women out there who are feeling despondent and like they would like to do more to help themselves get pregnant but are not sure what else they can do, this is the book for you. It brings hope and a very refreshing discussion about the idea that a women's eggs are "too old". We find out in this book that scientifically, that is not really the case. I have started acupuncture and am taking some of the herbs recommended in this book. I have also ordered the [...] yoga DVD and have been doing this daily. It is a real life change for me. I feel stronger and more peaceful inside - which is what you need when you are battling infertility. Highly recommend this!
