Patient Background / Story
At 33, Clara had been trying to conceive for three years. Her fertility investigations had not identified an obvious physical cause. Her AMH was normal, her uterus and fallopian tubes were reported as healthy, and her partner had also been assessed as having no identified fertility concerns.
Clara had been using Letrozole for six months but had still not conceived. Looking for additional support, she contacted GinSen to explore a Traditional Chinese Medicine approach alongside her existing fertility care.
Her menstrual cycle was generally regular, lasting around 30–32 days, with periods lasting approximately five days. She experienced mild cramping before her period and reported occasional tiredness, cold hands and feet and stress. She also maintained a healthy lifestyle, following a vegetarian diet for around 20 years, walking regularly and attending the gym twice a week.
What Clara Was Dealing With From a TCM Perspective
From a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective, fertility is considered in the context of the whole body, including the relationship between Kidney energy, Qi and Blood. Although Clara’s conventional fertility investigations had not identified an obvious cause for her difficulty conceiving, her consultation considered her individual symptoms, menstrual cycle and TCM findings. Her cold hands and feet, occasional tiredness and stress were considered alongside her pulse and tongue observations as part of her overall TCM assessment.
The focus of her treatment was therefore to:
- Support Kidney energy and reproductive wellbeing
- Nourish and support Blood
- Encourage the smooth movement of Qi and Blood
- Address signs of coldness and occasional tiredness
- Support a healthy menstrual cycle
- Promote overall balance as she prepared for conception
How We Helped : The GinSen TCM Way
Following her consultation, Clara was given a personalised Chinese herbal programme based on her individual TCM presentation and fertility concerns.
1. Personalised Chinese Herbal Tea
Clara was prescribed a personalised Chinese herbal tea formula selected according to her individual constitution and the findings from her consultation. Rather than following a standard formula, her herbal prescription was tailored to the specific pattern identified by her practitioner, with the aim of supporting her overall reproductive wellbeing.
2. Fertility Herbal Support
As part of her personalised fertility programme, Clara was recommended Jin Gui Shen Qi and Tao Hong Si Wu, two traditional Chinese herbal formulas selected according to her individual TCM presentation.
Jin Gui Shen Qi is traditionally associated with supporting Kidney Yang and addressing patterns of coldness. This was considered alongside Clara’s reported cold hands and feet as part of her personalised approach.
Tao Hong Si Wu is traditionally associated with nourishing and supporting Blood and promoting its smooth movement. It formed part of the wider approach to supporting healthy circulation and reproductive wellbeing.
Together, the formulas complemented her personalised herbal tea and formed part of Clara’s broader fertility support programme. Traditional Chinese medicine approaches fertility by considering the individual as a whole, rather than focusing solely on a single fertility marker or symptom.
3. Supporting Her Overall Fertility Journey
Clara was already taking positive steps with her lifestyle, including eating a vegetarian diet, exercising regularly and maintaining good sleep. Her GinSen programme took these factors into account alongside her menstrual cycle, symptoms and emotional wellbeing. She also reported experiencing stress, so the approach considered her overall wellbeing rather than focusing solely on conception. The aim was to provide personalised traditional Chinese medicine support while Clara continued her fertility journey.
