FERTILITY
Medically, infertility is defined as the inability to conceive a child even after the couple has had unprotected intercourse for a year. It can also be defined as the inability of a woman to deliver a live, healthy baby. Hijama therapy can help by removing the problems in the reproductive systems of both, men and women, that eventually lead up to infertility.
Hijama therapy is often used in conjunction with acupuncture. Your therapist will recommend that you take the procedure in the mornings when the life energy or chi is stronger. You will also be requested to continue the treatment regularly for at least 3 months, by way of a preset schedule.
Time Frames Targeted for Cupping
Stimulation: This is achieved by conducting the treatment from the day 5 of the menstrual cycle through day 11.
Ovulation: The treatment is given from day 12 of the cycle through day 16 when ovulation takes place.
Luteal Phase: The sessions begin on day 17 of the cycle and are continued through day 28.
How Cupping Helps Female Infertility
As explained above, cupping therapy can help by healing problems in the reproductive systems that can be the cause of infertility. These are some of the possible effects of the therapy:
Induces ovulation and helps when women do not ovulate or have anovulatory cycles
Cures imbalances of the thyroid gland
Removes blockages and inflammation in the Fallopian tubes
Helps remove defects in the luteal phase
Cures endometriosis or problems where the lining of the uterus forms outside of it
