What are the contraindications of taking ovulation-promoting Chinese medicine?

Many families now want a cute baby, and now taking ovulation-inducing Chinese medicine can promote ovulation very well. However, although this therapy can help you solve the problem, you must also pay attention to some contraindications of ovulation-inducing methods to prevent you from using this method to cause harm and endanger your health. Endocrine dysfunction and anovulation in modern medicine are equivalent to menstrual diseases in traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine for ovulation induction is still mainly based on the dialectical treatment of clinical symptoms. Here are some taboos.

In clinical practice, doctors do not encourage patients to use ovulation-inducing drugs at will. Even if a mother conceives twins or multiple births through drugs, the mother will bear huge risks during pregnancy, which can easily lead to various obstetric complications. The fetus is also prone to malnutrition, low weight, poor survival and other problems.

Since pregnancy and childbirth under pharmacological effects violate normal physiological reactions, doctors only use it with caution when treating female patients with infertility caused by anovulation. Women of childbearing age should take such drugs with caution under the strict diagnosis and guidance of a doctor.

Ovulation-stimulating drugs are a very dangerous type of medicine. They have indeed made contributions to the treatment of female infertility, but please do not think that they are a panacea.

Traditional Chinese medicine conditioning methods: There are three basic methods of traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions for ovulation induction in clinical practice: follicle-stimulating decoction, ovulation-stimulating decoction, and luteinizing decoction.

The use of ovulation-stimulating injections can promote the development, maturation and rupture of follicles, thereby allowing the egg cells to be successfully released. It can mainly treat female infertility caused by ovulation disorders and poor follicular development, and can greatly increase the possibility of conception. When women take ovulation-stimulating injections, it is mainly recommended that they first adjust their normal pituitary function. Therefore, when taking ovulation-stimulating injections, they should pay attention to their daily rest, especially not staying up late, as this will cause endocrine disorders in the body. Secondly, it is recommended that they should stop other drug treatments, do not take some Chinese patent medicines or other Chinese medicines, and pay attention to relaxing and maintaining a good mood, and eat more beans to regulate hormones.

Ovulation-inducing drugs, represented by clomiphene, are hormonal drugs and are generally used to treat infertility in female patients caused by anovulation. However, the side effects of using ovulation-inducing drugs are very obvious. The ovaries continue to ovulate under the stimulation of the drugs, which can easily cause women to have irregular menstruation, premature ovarian failure, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, and a small number of people will develop ovarian tumors.

The key depends on each person's sensitivity. Usually, Western medicine will work faster than Chinese medicine. Relax your mind. If you take ovulation-inducing medicine, you should use B-ultrasound to monitor the growth of follicles after taking the medicine. The above is a suggestion on the question of "Is it better to take Chinese medicine or Western medicine to induce ovulation?"

However, the drug ingredients contained in ovulation-stimulating injections belong to the category of hormones. Blind use of the drug may lead to endocrine disorders and physiological dysfunction, and even cause a series of side effects such as abdominal pain and stomach pain. Therefore, you must consult a relevant doctor before use, and use this type of drug only when necessary.

Ovulation-inducing drugs are hormonal drugs. Blind use can cause ovarian overstimulation and should not be used blindly. For women with regular menstrual cycles, the ovulation period is about 14 days before the next menstrual period. The chance of pregnancy is high if you have sex during the ovulation period. It is recommended that you have sex during the ovulation period to increase the chance of pregnancy.

If the follicles develop normally, it is generally not recommended to use ovulation-stimulating injections. If the follicles develop abnormally, you can use ovulation-stimulating injections reasonably according to the doctor's advice. Because self-use of ovulation-stimulating injections may lead to multiple births. Moreover, the use of ovulation-stimulating injections will have some adverse reactions. For example, many people will experience stomach pain, lower abdominal pain, and pelvic pain. A small number of people will also experience blurred vision and decreased vision. There are also reports of some individuals abroad developing breast cancer after taking ovulation-stimulating injections. ..

The above are the contraindications of taking Chinese medicine. In fact, you can also consider taking Chinese medicine. Combined with the analysis, Chinese medicine takes a relatively slow time to take effect, and it is not known whether it is effective or not. There is no clinical basis. Western medicine takes effect faster. Western medicine is very harmful to the body and may cause fetal malformations. If you plan to get pregnant, you can consider having sex during ovulation. You must maintain good personal hygiene, pay attention to your diet, and avoid eating spicy foods.
