BBT Chart Up and Down (Saw Tooth)

Yes, you would like to understand why your bbt chart is going up and down like a saw. In Oriental Medicine the diagnoses would be blood and qi stagnation. Or, easier to understand it as blockages. Is there something you can do? Yes — I alway start out with my patients on diet. As I wrote about before, cut out raw foods, add steamed veggies, lean meats, fish, and perhaps steam your fruit slightly. Cold foods increase stagnation. Cut out sweets, use Stevia or Agave if you need to have a sweet taste.

Put Castor oil on your abdomen during periods to help remove congestion. Put it on a cloth with a very hot cloth over it and leave on for 20 minutes. I use the Evergreen Herbs for my patients, or I make them a custom formula depending on pulse and tongue diagnoses. Evergreen makes some wonderful formulas that are very effective.

I change the formula depending on where the patient is in their cycle, or their underlying defiencies. It usually takes between 3-6 months to get a patients body to regulate. Does this always work? Absolutely not, although I would like to say it does. There are so many reasons for infertility. What I can say is the better ones health is, the better the body is working, the better the chances are for conceiving.
