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.

 It really works...Amazing book!!!! February 24, 2010

I have been having on and off Yeast infection / abnormal discharge from the past 15 years. My doctor always prescribed me antibiotics to the point that I can't take it anymore cause it makes me dizzy and I see no results at all and my symptoms were getting worse. In the past years I never believed anything like acupunture. I prefer western medical treatment.well,,my abnormal vaginal discharge goes off for a while and then comeback even worse. Then I read Dr. Lewis guide for acupressure points/ acupuncture to dry abnormal vaginal discharge and points to resolve damp conditions and follows her dietary guide for my condition.I just keep doing the acupuncture every few days and never taking any antibiotics while trying acupunture. I used acupunture on those exact points like in the book and within 2 days I saw wonderful results. And Now I am happy to say that this book really works!!!! Buy it and you won't regret it at all :0)Perfect for couples who are trying to start a family.the content of this book is amazing.

Having tried all avenues and remaining unsuccessful at conceiving a child, I happened upon this book. The diet requirements that were suggested for my particular health issues were very difficult but became routine after a short while. I followed whatever guidelines I was able to and do credit Randine and this book with the birth of my beautiful and healthy daughter. In addition, I would say that I had never felt better than during the time I was following this course.
I swear by this book... February 18, 2010

After our first born son died 2 days after birth, we were broken. We waited a few months, then decided we needed to try again. Only the grief was so deep, month after month passed with nothing. I found this book over a year after his death and immediately began doing everything the author described as far as diet. I even began acupuncture where they specifically treated me for grief. I had never considered acupuncture before and decided to give it a try. After only one month on the changed diet and after 3 sessions of acupuncture I became pregnant. I am now 16 weeks along and have recommended this book to everyone.
This book is beneficial to every woman whether you are trying to get pregnant or not. It helped me to center my body and be at my best, I wish I would have found this book years ago and could have taken better care of my body in my 20's. But better late than never!
This book is wonderful! December 23, 2009

I have struggled w/ infertility for a year and a half. I bought this book based on all these reviews and I was not disappointed. I was ***shocked*** when I took the questionnaire and from that, read what she said about my "diagnosis." I have luteal phase defect and the symptom list she put together fits me to a "T." It is almost like she is a psychic and was talking just to me.
I am a huge skeptic of "alternate" medicine, but what she wrote got my attention. It's also the first book that does not make it seem hopeless for women over 40, by talking about our "aging eggs," high m/c rates, etc. You get so discouraged listening to RE's and reading fertility books if you are over 40. What Randine says gives REAL hope and really makes you start thinking differently.
I just started to put things in practice- using herbs, a heating pad to warm up my cold feet and abdomen, and meditation (I do Christian meditation and recommend the series "Being in Him" by Everett and Sylvia Lakoduk). Their CD's are just amazing.
I will update when I have been on the program longer, but at least now I have a positive view on everything!
I love this book! December 13, 2009

Read this before undergoing any treatment for presumed infertility. It could save you many months of unnecessary invasive and costly procedures. Even if it doesn't cure your specific condition, it will give you such great insight into your body and help you become a more knowledgeable patient.
