Success Stories
Natural Conception
Case Study #1
● PCOS ● Amenorrhea (No Periods) ● Non-Ovulation
● Under Weight ● Low Progesterone ● Cold Feet & Hands ● Baby #1 #2
Having had difficulty conceiving for 5 years, AA was diagnosed as having PCOS on both side of her ovaries at the age of 33. Prior to coming to Positive Chinese Medicine, it had been 3 years since she could get period on her own and AA had undergone 3 Clomid cycles (50-150mg) with no luck. Her hormone laboratory test showed she had low progesterone level.
Determined to have a child naturally, she turned to the help of Jinglan where she underwent 3 months of weekly Acupuncture in combination with a Chinese herbal tea concoction taken twice[2] daily. Since she was unable to get her period, we could not predict what phases she was in during her menstrual cycle, thus the treatment was aiming primarily to bring her period naturally by creating an artificial cycle to stimulate and regulate her body.
Baby #1 - 2006
Within a month’s treatments, AA noticed significant difference in her body such as she was able to sleep well, no longer would wake up at 3 am in the morning; no more cold hands and feet and no more thick socks even though it was a cold winter; increased appetite thus she was able to put on some weight, from 114 lb. to 118 lb. (5’8’’1/2), to establish a healthy BMI for her body type.
After 8 weeks of treatments, AA got her first periods naturally. Second period came after 29 days. AA decided to stop treatment and see. After 5 weeks trying on her own, she got pregnant.
AA got pregnant after about 12 weeks since she came for the first time (8 weeks for actual acupuncture and herbal treatments). She gained 12 lb. since her first time coming for the treatments. (114lb. to 126lb.)
November 27, 2006 her miracle boy NA was born weighing in at a healthy 7 lbs 15oz. Her husband BA and AA couldn’t be happier and were so grateful they opted for Acupuncture in lieu of IVF. Skeptical of Acupuncture at first, she is now a believer of the treatment and recommend it to anyone having problems conceiving.
Baby #2 - 2009
AA had tried on her own again in 2008 at the age of 35. She was able to get pregnant without any treatments this time; however, she had a miscarriage in 3 months. In 2009, she tried one Clomid cycle and had been trying timed intercourse but none of them had worked. She had 30 to 45 day cycles on her own at that time. AA came back to us and after treaments with Acupuncture and herbs, she got pregnant again after seeing one period.
Case Study #2
● PCOS ● Weight Gain ● Long Menstrual Cycle
● PMS ● Severe Cramps ● Hypothyroidism ● Baby #1 #2 #3
SM was 32 years old female with no pregnancy history. She had been trying for 2 years.
SM was diagnosed with PCOS. She had complained about weight gain for 3 years as well as her irregular and long menstrual cycles (from 35 days up to 72 days). PMS such as emotional, breast tenderness and severe cramps during periods had been bothering her as well. SM also had hypothyroidism for 2 years and she found herself getting tired easily.
Before coming to PCM, SM had undergone 2 IUI with injection. She also had received acupuncture treatment from a Naturopathic doctor for 6 months. None of them worked.
Baby #1 - 2011
SM strictly maintained weekly acupuncture and daily herbs except during 2 weeks of her vacation. After almost 5 months, her 3rd cycle of treatment, SM cancelled her appointment with her new fertility doctor she made appointment with before coming to PCM because she believed Eastern medicine was working on her. SM had been noticing differences with her periods having less and less cramps and PMS before her periods, and cycle days getting shorter and more regular (between 30 days to 40 days now). She wanted to keep up the good work. SM found herself pregnant naturally very soon with the help of acupuncture and herbs.
SM graduated with honours from us after receiving pregnancy support treatment for biweekly acupuncture due to financial situation until gestational week 16 but kept taking herbs everyday at the same time until about gestational week 12.
Baby #2 - 2012
After SM’s first son, she tried on her own for more than 5 months. Having no luck, SM returned back to us for same weekly acupuncture and daily herbs. After 1 cycle, SM didn’t get her 2nd period but got pregnant again. With previous treatments she had done for her first attempt, her second attempt with us was much easier.
Baby #3 - 2014
SM came back to us 6 weeks after stopping breast feeding her 2nd child. Just like the second time, she was pregnant after 1 cycle doing acupuncture and herbs and she is now expecting her baby #3 in June, 2015.

FC, female, 37 years old, had trouble conceiving for more than a year after having her son naturally about 4 years ago. She had one miscarriage 1 year ago when trying on her own. She had a weak immune system that she caught cold or flu frequently throughout the year, feeling fatigued and also she couldn’t have a good sleep.

General Health
Case Study #1
● Hypothyroidism ● High TSH Level ● Reducing Thyroid Medication ● Thyroid Nodule
FC’s family is now complete with her baby daughter 4 and half years old after receiving acupuncture treatment from us for IUI support. Yet turning 42 years old, FC came back to us to improve her thyroid function hoping to regulate her TSH level therefore to reduce thyroid medication use by embracing Eastern medicine. She followed our suggestion of doing weekly acupuncture as well as daily herbs.
In 2006, FC's hyperthyroidism turned to hypothyroidism. In November 2014, prior to doing treatment with us, her TSH level was 6.67 mlU/L (Normal range of TSH: 0.5 - 4.5/5.0 mlU/L). Also there were 2 to 3 times that TSH levels were more than 6 mlU/L in the past. Besides, there was a nodule in her thyroid according to ultrasound. F.C. had been doing regular checkup from her endocrinologist and taking Synthroid 0.05 mg for a year. FC had been trying a Naturopathic doctor regularly in the hope of normalizing TSH level; however, there was no improvement in her TSH level and she still felt tired sometimes.
After doing weekly acupuncture and daily herbs for 1 month, TSH level went down from 6.67 mlU/L to 1.87 mlU/L. The nodule in her thyroid also had disappeared. FC felt more energetic not as before. Endocrinologist now suggested that she could take Synthyroid with same dosage every other day instead of everyday.
Other than the weekly acupuncture and herbs, FC received cupping therapy as well and also found it helpful for stress management and reducing muscle tensions with the help of massage therapy treatment. With the combination of a variety of treatments that she had received, she believed her immune system was now stronger. She noticed she did not get a cold at all, even though she was the type of person who used to get a cold or flu easily.
