Some people think that there’s a conspiracy going on to cover up the alternative medicine for various types of disease. This is especially true in the fertility industry where billions of dollars is at stake. Fertility centers for IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) and IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) has a lot to lose if the real statistics of their success rate leaks out.
However, I’m inclined to believe that there’s no conspiracy (self protection measures like lambasting alternative medicine surely exist but not conspiracy, big difference) because fertility is not a widespread disease. Let me explain myself. Fertility does not affect everyone, thus it’s not like you can target the people to spread the information about the available herbs for female fertility. It’s simply too costly to advertise on the newspaper and TV for something so few people care or know about.
That’s why most couple will go through the modern medicine “chain of supply” first without any knowledge to how it will affect their lives and most importantly, their baby. Normally, the couple would go to a doctor and get diagnosed, then maybe they will go to a specialist after numerous failures and take a whole new set of drugs and so on. Finally they will stumble upon IUI and IVF, by that time, they’re usually pretty tired, depressed and maybe even lost all hope for conceiving a baby. IVF and IUI is usually their last and only hope, so they will spend whatever they need to get a baby. (which will cost them dearly)
The thing is, the success rate for IUI and/or IVF is grossly over estimated by statistics manipulation. The success rate of 50% is very inaccurate because you will only get 50% of chance if your condition is perfectly optimized, which rarely happens in real life. The real success rate is only about 18% for most couples. (most probably you)
I would suggest that you take up alternative medicine like acupuncture because they have acupuncture for infertility too. Most people and literature grossly under estimated the success rates of alternative medicine for infertility because the modern medicine is always labeling alternative medicine as snake oils. Know that these modern medicine practitioners have a huge interest at stake so take their words with a grain of salt.
