Your Liver, Kidney affect your fertility? Chinese Medicine
Does anyone know anything about chinese medicine? A friend of mine says that in chinese medincine your liver and kidneys play an importnant role in your reproductive heallth due to their hormonal influence on the other glands.
Wow thats the last thing I'd expect to be playing a role in my trying to conceive.
Chinese medicine? Anyone? Ms. Canada?

Well you are MUCH braver than I am.. I always take pill form only because I hate tasting this stuff... but tea form (and especially tincture) is the best way for you to take it because your body can absorb it better.
Good luck and baby dust!

That tea tastes terrible. But I have so much energy it must be doing something.
Wow what a change!

Thx Mrs.Canada
I thought you may know something about it :-)
I bought a tea thats schizandra and lycium for liver and kidneys. The taste leaves something to be desired but I'll have an interesting story to tell the baby. "Do you know what horrible tea I had to drink to get you here?" Modern day version of the "days in labor" story our mothers used to guilt us with, right? :-D
Thanks again

Haha.. well.. I am not entirely up on the Chinese medicine. My perspective would be that the supplements that nourish the kidneys and liver, also enhance your reproductive organ health.
When ttc, I take a Vitamin A and D supplement. This promotes cell regeneration in your reproductive organs, esp the cervix. Vitamin A works in lockstop with Vitamin D which is a key nutrient for kidney health. Liver manages the use of Vitamin D. So in essense, it all relates back to your original idea - if your liver and kidneys are functioning well, you are getting the right nutrients for reproductive health.
How's that? :)
