How Naturopathy Can Help With Trying To Conceive

How did you find Genevieve?

My personal trainer referred me to Gen. Her and her family have been going to Gen for a while now and had some issues resolved. This gave me hope.

How long were you trying to conceive before Genevieve started treating you?

9 months

What symptoms were you experiencing when you started seeing Genevieve?

I’ve always had an issue with my periods but I thought nothing of it as I had conceived my first daughter naturally without any issues. Only upon investigating did I find out I had PCOS, Endometriosis and a cyst on my ovary (this was done prior to coming to Gen as I did not know about her at this stage). This caused me a lot of pain, heavy bleeding, clotting and a 7 day long period.

Did Genevieve do any particular testing to further investigate your infertility?


Yes, she did some blood tests which normally Gp’s don’t think of. It was really good to get a whole picture instead of part of it. With the blood work Gen ordered, we found out that I had insulin resistance as well which wasn’t helping my case.What changes did you notice once she started treatment?

I lost cravings for sweets (which was really good), I had less pain with my periods, less bleeding and clotting and my periods eventually went from 7 days to 5 days.

Do you have any advice for others?

Natural things take time and patience. Gen advised me from the beginning I may need to get surgery done eventually but at least my hormones will be in balance which is also very important. I’ve heard a lot of great success stories of people being treated by Gen and now I can attest to that as well. Thanks Gen for your magic!!!

How Naturopathy Can Help Endometriosis

How did you find Genevieve?

Gen was referred to me by a friend at work who had been seeing her for a few months and had a really great experience with her.

How was your menstrual cycle / overall health before Genevieve started treating you?

My menstrual cycle was horrible. I have suffered with endometriosis for 25 years and it was progressively getting worse. I was so extremely fatigued and barely haf the energy to get out of bed in the mornings, I was in so much pain! My cycle used to be 21 days, and my period would be extremely heavy for 7 days. I would be in extreme pain most of the month, especially around ovulation time and then again 1 week before my period started. I was just so tired of feeling awful and nothing was working for me. I had a few laparoscopy surgeries but the endometriosis kept coming back about a month after the surgery. I then saw a Dietician who helped me with being able to get my weight down and keeping it off, but it didn’t really help me manage the pain. I just felt constantly swollen, bloated and sore.

Did Genevieve do any particular testing to further investigate your endometriosis and other symptoms?

I had a blood test before my appointment and took the results in to her. Gen then did a further blood check on our first visit. I was so amazed at how much she had picked up from the test without me even telling her anything.

What changes did you notice once she started treatment?

It took about 1 month before I started noticing changes and by the 2nd month the pain started to ease a little and I was feeling less tired. I have been seeing her for 5 months now and I can’t believe how much better I feel. Gen has been able to help reduce the pain by about 60% and I no longer get mid month pain anymore. I just feel like she has changed my life and I know I can deal with the pain when it hits now. I am feeling less tired and my husband has commented a few times about how I am a different and happier person as he has watched me struggle with endometriosis for many years. I can’t thank her enough.
