Hazel Was 39 With an AMH of 1.5 and Small Fibroids, Now Pregnant After GinSen Support

At 39, Hazel came to GinSen hoping to have another baby after already experiencing a complex fertility journey.

She had been trying to conceive for around one year. Hazel was G2P1 and had previously experienced a miscarriage at 18 weeks. She later had a successful IVF pregnancy in December 2025 and, after becoming a mother, wanted to try for another baby.

Her fertility investigations showed an AMH of 1.5, while small fibroids measuring around 2cm had also been identified. She came to GinSen looking for additional support as she continued trying to conceive.

Her menstrual cycle was regular at 27–28 days, although her periods were very light, lasting around four days. She described the blood as dark red, with no clots, and reported little vaginal discharge. She did not experience noticeable PMS symptoms.

Alongside her fertility concerns, Hazel reported feeling tired and cold easily, with some stress. She generally ate and slept well, had regular bowel movements and usually woke once or not at all during the night to urinate.

 What Hazel Was Dealing With From a TCM Perspective

From a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective, Hazel’s fertility history was considered alongside her menstrual pattern, energy levels, tendency to feel cold, stress and overall wellbeing.

Her very light menstrual flow and tendency to feel cold and tired were considered as part of her individual TCM presentation. Within TCM, the Kidney system is traditionally associated with reproductive health, while Qi and Blood are considered important in relation to the menstrual cycle and fertility.

The focus was therefore on supporting her underlying TCM pattern rather than concentrating on one fertility factor alone. Her programme was designed around supporting Kidney Qi, nourishing and regulating Blood, supporting healthy menstrual function and addressing signs of coldness and tiredness.

Her previous miscarriage, IVF history and known small fibroids were also considered when developing her individual approach.
