There is different understanding of dysmenorrhea and fertility issues from Western medicine and holistic medicine point of view.
Dysmenorrhea or painful period is the medical term for pain with your period (menstruation) or menstrual cramps
Infertility for men is most commonly caused by problems in the ejection of semen , absence or low levels of sperm, or abnormal shape (morphology) and movement (motility) of the sperm.
Infertility for women may be caused by a range of abnormalities of the ovaries, uterus, fallopian tubes, and the endocrine system, among others.
Infertility can be primary or secondary. Primary infertility is when a pregnancy has never been achieved by a person, and secondary infertility is when at least one prior pregnancy has been achieved.
From holistic or Chinese medicinal point of views, there are several reasons for painfu period and infertility.
For female, about 80% are due to womb coldness combined with qi stagnation and blood stasis. There is also possible kidney essence deficiency as well.
For male infertility, it is mainly due to kidney yang or essence issue.
