Patient Background / Story
When Sofia Martins first came to GinSen in November 2025, she was still carrying the shock of what had happened earlier that year.
In March 2025, she had suffered an ectopic pregnancy, a pregnancy that had implanted outside the uterus which had led to emergency surgery. Her left fallopian tube was removed in a procedure called a salpingectomy. The surgeon confirmed that her remaining tube, uterus, and ovaries all looked healthy. But healthy or not, Sofia now had only one fallopian tube and at 42, she knew the path ahead would require everything she had.
It made the loss feel even heavier. Just a few years earlier, she had conceived her son now almost three in the very first month of trying. Pregnancy had once felt effortless. Now it felt uncertain, fragile, and frightening.
She wasn’t ready to give up. She came to GinSen looking for support, strength, and a way forward.
How We Helped : The GinSen TCM Way
Sofia’s required both sensitivity and precision from us. Following the trauma of an ectopic pregnancy and surgery, her body needed deep healing before it could be ready to carry a new pregnancy safely and successfully. Our approach was to restore, protect, and prepare.
1. Supporting Fallopian Tube Health and Reproductive Recovery
After a salpingectomy, the health of the remaining fallopian tube becomes everything. Our Fallopian Kit was specifically chosen to support tubal health, reduce any residual inflammation, and encourage optimal function of Sofia’s remaining tube, giving her the best possible chance of natural conception.
2. Strengthening Digestion and Vital Energy
SanQi and Ren Shen Jian Pi were recommended to support Sofia’s digestive strength, replenish her Qi, and rebuild her vital energy following the physical and emotional toll of surgery and pregnancy loss. In TCM, strong digestion is the foundation of Blood and energy production essential for a healthy pregnancy at 42.
3. Improving Circulation and Uterine Health
Regular acupuncture and reflexology massage were incorporated into Sofia’s plan to stimulate healthy blood circulation to the reproductive organs, support hormonal balance, and create a warm, nourishing uterine environment ready to receive and sustain a pregnancy.
4. Emotional and Physical Recovery
An ectopic pregnancy is not just a physical event, it is a profound emotional loss. Through the combination of acupuncture, reflexology, and herbal support, we helped Sofia’s nervous system settle, her stress levels reduce, and her body find its way back to a place of readiness and calm.

The Result
By January 2026, just under three months after beginning her GinSen journey. Sofia confirmed she was pregnant.
No spotting. No lower back pain. Good energy, good appetite, and good bowel movement. A slight morning sickness and a little more frequent trips to the bathroom the most welcome signs she had felt in a long time. Her ultrasound was booked for 3rd March, and for the first time in months, she was looking forward rather than looking back.
At 42, with one fallopian tube and the weight of loss still fresh, Sofia Martins proved that the body, given the right support, has a remarkable capacity to heal, to hope, and to begin again.
