Infertility Treatment with Thread Embedding

Vietnam Rehabilitation Institute is proud of its extensive experience in treating infertility through thread embedding, bringing hope and happiness to many families. We treat both primary infertility (if the patient has never been pregnant) and secondary infertility (if the patient has previously been pregnant but experienced miscarriage or has difficulty conceiving a second child).

Thread Embedding is an advanced Acupuncture technique where self-absorbing threads are inserted into acupuncture points, providing continuous healing simulation until they dissolve. Thread embedding simulates acupuncture points on the meridian system to correct imbalances in the body's internal organs. Depending on the specific illness, we will select appropriate acupuncture points.

What is Infertility?

Infertility is the inability to conceive after one year of unprotected sexual intercourse. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), infertility affects approximately 10-15% of couples worldwide.

Some patients may have tried various assisted reproductive technologies, such as In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). However, unfortunately, many people are unsuccessful after multiple IVF attempts or may experience miscarriages within a few weeks or months of conception, which could be due to various underlying health issues.

Causes of Infertility

For women, there are several causes of infertility, with the most common being:

• External and Internal Environmental Factors: Some individuals have internal environments that are not conducive to conception, such as obesity, thyroid disorders, high blood sugar, etc., or use certain medications and chemicals that can affect fertility.

• Stress or Excessive Use of Electronic Devices.

• Blocked Fallopian Tubes: Caused by infections, inflammation, or other issues.

• Ovulation Disorders: These account for about 25% of female infertility cases.

• Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): Caused by hormonal imbalances, affecting ovulation.

• Endometriosis: Causes pain and can block the fallopian tubes.

• Premature Menopause: When the ovaries stop functioning before the age of 40.

• Uterine Fibroids: Benign tumors in the uterus that can cause infertility.

• Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID): Caused by infections leading to adhesions and blocked fallopian tubes.

• Immune Reactions: The body produces antibodies against the male sperm.

For men, the causes include:

• Low Sperm Count

• Poor Sperm Quality

• Sperm Dysfunction

• Ejaculation Problems

• Hormonal Imbalances

• Use of Stimulants and Tobacco

• Genital Infections

• Chronic Diseases such as Diabetes

• Injuries or Surgeries to the Genital Organs

• Undescended Testicles

• Varicocele (Enlarged Veins in the Scrotum)

• Genetic Disorders

• Side Effects of Certain Medications

• Stress and Psychological Pressure

• Unhealthy Diet and Lifestyle

• Working or Living in High-Temperature Environments

• Vitamin and Mineral Deficiencies

Infertility Treatment with Thread Embedding

The institute accepts cases where individuals are trying to conceive but have not yet used assisted reproductive technologies, as well as those who have unsuccessfully attempted Western medical conception methods multiple times.

We address the root causes of infertility and simultaneously treat any chronic conditions the client may have. Optimizing health three months before conception is ideal, including regular Thread Embedding sessions, ensuring proper nutrition, supplementing with vitamins or dietary supplements, reducing stress, and creating a balanced environment for the egg and sperm. 

Our values are holistic healthcare and addressing the root cause of health problems rather than only treating symptoms. Thus, in addition to treating the patient's Fertility disease, we simultaneously address other diseases/symptoms that the patient is experiencing (if any).

When the body’s functions are balanced, it creates optimal conditions for conception and maintaining a healthy pregnancy until the baby is born. Please note that even after successful conception, Thread Embedding should continue until one week before the labor date (for women) to maintain health and stabilize chronic conditions, ensuring the healthy development of the fetus.

Effectiveness of Thread Embedding in Infertility Treatment

As of 2024, we have successfully treated 1,200 cases of infertility through the following mechanisms:

• Addressing the Above-Mentioned Health Issues

• Regulating the Menstrual Cycle: Thread embedding stimulates the endocrine system, helping to regulate hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, FSH and LH, thereby preparing the body for conception.

• Improve sperm vitality: Thread embedding can enhance the quantity, quality, and motility of sperm. Treating men with thread embedding also increases the success rate of fertilization in IVF.

• Enhancing Blood Circulation to Reproductive Organs: Thread embedding promotes blood flow to the uterus and ovaries, improving egg quality and the thickness and sensitivity of the uterine lining, which in turn increases the chances of conception and healthy childbirth.

• Reducing Stress and Anxiety: Stress can negatively impact fertility. Thread embedding helps reduce stress by stimulating the release of endorphins, calming the nervous system, lowering blood pressure, and improving overall health and well-being.

• Boosting Overall Health: The treatment also addresses conditions such as obesity, thyroid disorders, cysts, uterine fibroids, high blood sugar, and enhances the overall health and immunity of both parents. 

According to our institute's statistics, 15% of cases were successful after 1-2 Thread Embedding sessions (using Threads dissolve after 3 weeks), while 15% were successful after more than 10 sessions in individuals with multiple chronic conditions and advanced age (over 45 years). The majority (the remaining 70%) succeeded after 6-8 Thread Embedding sessions.

Best Time to Use Thread Embedding in Infertility Treatment

The best and most successful time for conception is during the summer and spring. Therefore, we recommend starting Thread Embedding at the end of winter or the beginning of spring to prepare the health of both parents, thereby increasing the chances of conception in the spring-summer season.

For older individuals (over 45 years old) or those who have undergone multiple unsuccessful IVF attempts, we recommend undergoing Thread Embedding at least 3 to 5 times before proceeding with IVF. IVF should ideally be performed in the spring-summer season.

However, in general, you can use Thread Embedding at any stage of the infertility treatment process. It is best to start as early as possible. The benefits of Thread Embedding accumulate over time, so early treatment will optimize health and increase the chances of conception.
