Talk Description

Immunologic Infertility: “One of the most frustrating aspects of infertility is when the immune system thinks it is protecting the patient from the ‘threat’ of pregnancy. Hormones are fine; jing, qi, and blood seem sufficient, and excesses are minimal. Yet, deep within, the body is in conflict, waiting for an invader to attack. Dr. Lewis will help the practitioner identify and address the origin or immunologic reactivity."

Learning objective:

The student will learn to identify both western and eastern identifiers of autoimmune infertility, and how to address them with lifestyle, acupuncture, herbal and nutritional therapy
