She experiences dysmenorrhea and excessive vaginal discharge. Her husband has normal sexual activity. An examination by a gynecologist at a certain hospital revealed normal development of the uterus and adnexa, leading to a diagnosis of tubal infertility. She then sought treatment. Her pulse was wiry and hesitant; her tongue was slightly dark with a slightly greasy coating. Based on the pulse and symptoms...

[0067] Diagnosis: Blood stasis causing dysmenorrhea, dampness causing leukorrhea, and blocked fallopian tubes. This is the fifth type of TCM syndrome differentiation for female infertility.

[0074] Case 3:

[0075] Ms. Wang, female, 31 years old, has been infertile for many years after marriage, and has undergone assisted reproductive technology twice without success. She first visited on October 2, 2018. She had her first menstruation at age 14, and her menstrual cycle had always been regular. For the past four years, her menstrual cycle has been 30-40 days per period, with scanty, dark red menstrual flow, blood clots, and lasting 7-10 days. She also experiences excessive, thin, white vaginal discharge and occasional lower abdominal pain. Her stools are loose, twice daily. She is slightly overweight, weighing 60 kg and measuring 157 cm in height. Her Western medical gynecological diagnosis is polycystic ovary syndrome, left fallopian tube obstruction, and primary infertility. Her tongue is red with a thin white coating, and her pulse is slippery and weak.

[0076] Diagnosis: Infertility is caused by spleen deficiency, internal obstruction of phlegm and dampness, and insufficient kidney essence. This belongs to the second type of TCM syndrome differentiation for female infertility.

[0077] Treatment: Strengthen the spleen and dry dampness, resolve phlegm and reduce fat, and nourish the kidneys to aid fertility.

[0080] Example 4: A traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating infertility, consisting of the following raw materials in the indicated weight ratios:

[0081] Formula A: 55 parts red ginseng, 55 parts Panax notoginseng, 25 parts jujube peel, 30 parts wolfberry, 30 parts angelica, 25 parts Chinese yam, 28 parts poria cocos, 30 parts dragon's blood, 40 parts chuanxiong rhizome, 40 parts safflower, 45 parts teasel root, 45 parts alpinia oxyphylla, 25 parts achyranthes bidentata, 10 parts papaya, 40 parts cynomorium songaricum, and 30 parts he shou wu.

[0083] This is a single dose. Generally, 10 doses constitute one prescription. First, soak the medicine in 20 jin of high-proof grain liquor. After seven days, take one small spoonful (one liang) every night. Then, continuously add liquor, up to a maximum of 40 jin of liquor.

[0084] Case 4:

[0085] Ms. Li, 30 years old, sought medical attention in October 2019. She has one son and three daughters, the youngest being three years old. She underwent sterilization surgery three years prior. She remarried a year ago and underwent fallopian tube recanalization surgery. Her husband, 42 years old, is a small-scale construction contractor. He was unable to conceive in his previous marriage and wished to have a child. The couple had been living together for a year without success. Two months ago, a gynecological examination at the hospital revealed that her fallopian tubes were partially blocked. She experiences lower back pain, cold abdomen, decreased menstrual flow, slightly increased vaginal discharge, and low quality of sexual intercourse. She sought help from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Her tongue was pale with a thin, greasy coating, and her pulse was deep and slow. Her husband experienced chest and rib fullness, cold extremities, diarrhea, tenesmus, and frequent nocturnal emissions. Semen analysis showed poor quality (insufficient sperm count and poor motility). Traditional thinking places all fertility problems on the woman, but male infertility also accounts for a significant proportion. Male factors have long been overlooked, leading to delayed diagnosis. Asthenospermia, oligospermia, and azoospermia are all common and difficult-to-treat diseases in men.

[0086] Differential diagnosis: Kidney Yang deficiency is the first type of syndrome in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) classification of female infertility. Male infertility is caused by Yin deficiency and excessive Yang, resulting in seminal emission or ejaculation failure.

[0087] Treatment methods: For women: Regulate the Ren meridian, the sea of ​​Yin meridians, and enhance its Qi. For men: Soothe the chest and ribs, astringe and consolidate essence, nourish Yin and reduce internal heat.

[0088] Prescription: Male: Self-prepared kidney-warming and essence-replenishing wine.

[0089] After 5 months of treatment, she became pregnant. The pregnancy went well, and hospital examinations showed that the fetus was developing normally.

[0090] Example 5: A traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating infertility, consisting of the following raw materials in the indicated weight ratios:

[0091] Formula A: 70 parts red ginseng, 70 parts Panax notoginseng, 35 parts jujube peel, 40 parts wolfberry, 42 parts angelica, 35 parts Chinese yam, 40 parts poria cocos, 15 parts dragon's blood, 25 parts chuanxiong, 46 parts safflower, 46 parts dipsacus, 37 parts alpinia oxyphylla, 30 parts achyranthes bidentata, 15 parts papaya, 42 parts cynomorium songaricum, and 40 parts he shou wu.

[0092] Formula B: 38 parts seahorse, 20 parts cinnamon, 45 parts wild gastrodia, 23 parts Taiwan black fungus, 40 parts dodder seed, 32 parts eucommia bark, 25 parts privet fruit, 25 parts fenugreek, 35 parts tribulus fruit, 35 parts black goji berries, 10 parts natural copper, 30 parts rehmannia root, 40 parts rosehip, 10 parts magnetite.

[0093] This is a single dose. Generally, 10 doses constitute one prescription. First, soak the medicine in 20 jin of high-proof grain liquor. After seven days, take one small spoonful (one liang) every night. Then, continuously add liquor, up to a maximum of 40 jin of liquor.

[0094] Case 5:

[0095] Ms. Guo, 37 years old at the time of consultation, had been pregnant twice before, both times resulting in miscarriage. Her symptoms were quite complex. She came from a local district and had tried various treatments without success before seeking treatment through a referral in October 2018. She reported excessive sweating, decreased libido, delayed menstruation, premenstrual breast tenderness, lower back pain, a patent right fallopian tube, and a partially patent left fallopian tube with fimbrial adhesions. Her husband's ultrasound revealed varicocele, and sperm quality testing showed poor motility and a high rate of sperm abnormalities.

[0096] Diagnosis: Semen and sweat share the same origin; sweat and blood share the same origin. Liver qi stagnation belongs to the fourth type of TCM syndrome differentiation for female infertility. This is due to spleen and kidney deficiency, deficiency of the Chong and Ren meridians, and deficiency of both qi and blood.

[0097] Treatment: Tonify the kidneys, soothe the liver, and strengthen the spleen. For women, this formula nourishes yin, clears heat, consolidates the exterior, and stops sweating. Excessive sweating leads to insufficient menstrual blood, causing the uterus and ovaries to become deprived of nourishment. Tonifying the liver and kidneys improves frigidity and lower back pain, and enhances the production of high-quality eggs. For men, this formula tonifies the yin of the liver and kidneys, prevents deficiency heat in the liver and kidneys, and invigorates blood circulation to treat varicocele.

[0098] Prescription: Self-formulated kidney-warming and essence-replenishing wine (with modifications to the main prescription).

[0099] External treatment: treatment for both husband and wife, low and medium frequency electroacupuncture along meridians and traditional Chinese medicine mud moxibustion.

[0100] After more than three months of consistent treatment, I successfully conceived at an advanced age! I had a C-section and gave birth to a baby boy.

[0101] Conclusion: This couple suffered from infertility for many years, experiencing significant mental stress and liver qi stagnation. The key was to tonify the liver and kidneys to improve frigidity, lower back pain, and enhance the production of high-quality eggs. The male patient received low-to-medium frequency electroacupuncture and massage to regulate and unblock the meridians, thus treating varicocele.
