Course Description

This course is based on the book “Female Infertility and Reproductive Gynaecology”. The authors of the book, Celine Leonard and Michael Häberle, supported by Esther Denz, will provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the female cycle, infertility and assisted reproductive medicine from the perspective of Chinese and Western medicine. In particular, treatment with Chinese herbal medicine will be taught in detail.
LPD is a very common, often underdiagnosed, condition which can make it difficult to conceive. The webinar will discuss how to detect and treat a luteal phase problem. What is a luteinised unruptured follicle syndrome and what does hyperprolactinemia have to do with the female cycle or infertility? On the sixth webinar we figure out the causes of these clinical patterns and how we can treat them.
