Integrative Treatment of Male Infertility with Chinese Medicine

With one out of six couples in the Western world experiencing infertility, treating the male partner remains largely unexplored. This is the first book taking an integrative approach to the treatment of male fertility issues with Chinese medicine. Oliva Krammer-Pojer approaches the subject in a truly integrative way, combining Western medical knowledge - such as semen analysis and interpretation - with Chinese medicine, including herbal formulas and acupuncture protocols.

The first book to take an integrative approach to the treatment of male infertility issues, this easily digestible guide uses graphics and visual aids to help explain key concepts in diagnosis, anatomy and treatment from a Western and Chinese medicine perspective.
Dr Olivia Pojer, a Western medical doctor and Chinese medicine practitioner, uses a dual approach to the largely unexplored treatment of male infertility. The book covers common causes of the topic, the microbiome of the testes, and how to encourage better sperm production. It also includes chapters on nutraceuticals and laser therapy, as well as herbal formulas and acupuncture protocols to implement in clinical practice, along with Chinese medical lifestyle and nutrition.
Addressing the so-called male factor in reproduction and its underrepresentation in treatment, this book provides a complete overview for acupuncturists and Chinese medicine practitioners treating male infertility issues.
