Patient Highlight: Overcoming Infertility due to Endometriosis

By Jackie

In our upcoming book, Miracle Moms, Better Sex, Less Pain, we share over 75 stories of patients who came to Clear Passage Therapies (CPT) for help with chronic pain, female infertility, and female sexual dysfunction. An entire chapter in the book is devoted to endometriosis-related infertility. Over eight patient stories are included in this incredible chapter that explains how endometriosis and adhesions can cause infertility and what you can do about it.

One former patient featured in this chapter is Michaeleena, who struggled with infertility for four years. Michaeleena and her husband tried to become pregnant on their own for two years, but then decided to seek the help of a doctor. All the tests appeared normal for Michaeleena, so they started IUI treatments with Clomid®. After the fourth failed IUI cycle, she underwent diagnostic laparoscopic surgery and learned she had endometriosis. Her doctor told her that her left ovary and fallopian tube were covered by endometrial implants and her tube was completely blocked. To make matters worse, her right tube was barely open.

Michaeleena and her husband tried to get pregnant for a few months following surgery and then decided to try another IUI. When it didn’t work, Michaeleena felt distraught. Her doctors pushed her to have an IVF transfer because her FSH levels were high and she was “old” – age 38.

About this time, Michaeleena learned of CPT from a friend. After speaking with many massage therapists and physical therapists, she decided to attend an intensive week program. After treatment, Michaeleena was doubtful it would work, but told us, “I took Clomid just in case it did work.” To her surprise, she became pregnant the month after treatment. Her healthy son was born nine months later.

In our upcoming book, we also devote an entire chapter to endometriosis pain, its causes, and how physical therapy can help.
