We are equipped to deal with these mentioned causes of infertility holistically at our Naturopathic clinic.

Naturopath fertility treatments in Edmonton

We typically use Hormone Testing for investigating Fertility Issues.

Blood based testing is helpful in this regard as it allows us to analyse ovulatory signals such as LH and FSH. Blood testing also allows our Naturopathic doctors to assess Thyroid function. Thyroid health is a central part of proper fertility as Hypothyroidism is a reversible cause of infertility in women and can cause abnormalities in sperm production in men. 

Adrenal testing is also used as Cortisol plays an intimate role with regards to thyroid function and DHEA can be used to improve fertility. Adrenal testing is often done through Saliva as a 1 point or 4 point Salivary Cortisol sample. 

DUTCH urinary hormone testing can be helpful in cases of infertility as it provides our Naturopaths with a deep look at your estrogens, androgens and cortisol and their metabolites.

Herbs, Vitamins & Anti-oxidants are usually used for infertility at our Naturopath Clinic. 

Dr. Deol has a special interest in fertility and is extensively trained in Acupuncture for improving fertility. Acupuncture is typically recommended by our Naturopaths as part of a comprehensive Natural fertility treatment protocol

Our Naturopathic Doctors typically perform fertility acupuncture weekly for at least 6 - 8 weeks before reducing your acupuncture treatments to once or twice per month timed between day 7 and day 13 of your menstrual cycle.

Dr. Deol also offers acupuncture to enhance IVF and IUI fertility procedures. Preparing your body before IVF egg transfer or IUI ensures better success, lower treatment side effects, and an increase in pregnancy maintenance and live birth rates.

Acupuncture has positive effects on egg quality and can improve blood flow in the uterus which creates a better environment for implantation. The balancing effects of acupuncture can also help support you emotionally through these important procedures. Robust data exists with regards to assisted reproduction therapy (ART) and acupuncture.

All of the Naturopaths at TruMed are trained in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture however, Dr.Deol & Dr.Sumar perform the majority of Acupuncture at our Edmonton clinic. 

Fertility IVs can be used to enhance sperm and egg health.  For men we tend to emphasize Zinc and Carnitine in our IV Drips to enhance sperm health. For women, we often emphasize Methyl-Folate, Selenium and Glutathione to improve egg quality. At TruMed our Naturopathic Doctors extremely experienced with use of IV Therapy for many health concerns; we've given thousands of nutritional IV therapy treatments to our Edmonton clients. 

Bio-identical options such as DHEA, Testosterone, Desiccated Thyroid and Progesterone are suggested when strong options are needed through referrals to collaborative Health Professionals.  DHEA, Desiccated Thyroid and Progesterone are commonly suggested options as each has been well studied for improving various aspect of Fertility. DHEA is a well known adjuct to IVF procedures. Although Naturopaths in Edmonton and Alberta do not prescribe we are well versed in the use of Bio-identical hormones.
