9 1/2 weeks of acupuncture

I have been so busy with the beginning of the school year that I have not even had time to breathe. I did se LAc last Saturday (8/19), which was at 8 1/2 weeks. Here are the herbs that she prescribed me:
  • Che Qian Zi (Plantago asiatica--seed)
  • Chinese Number 0408011
  • Chinese Number 0509011-20050901)
  • Fleeceflower Root (Radix Polygoni Multiflori--Heshouwu)
  • Himalayan Teasel Root (Radix Dipsaci--Xuduan)
  • Indian Bread (Poria--Fuling)
  • Nutgrass Galingale Rhizome (Rhizoma Cyperi--Xiangfu)
  • Prepared Rehmannia Root (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata--Shudihuang)
  • Tangshen (Radix Codonopsis--Dangshen)
  • Twotoothed Achyranthes Root (RAdix Achyranthis Bidentatae--Niuxi)

Today, Saturday, I saw LAc again. This is week 9 1/2. I took my chart and it seems that I have ovulation way before I did last cycle. Obviously acupuncture is working. I am still drinking my fresh veggie/fruit juice every morning and drinking my 1 gallon of water (minium) per day. Also, I am taking Acidophilus and Prenatal vitamin. So far, I have lost about 9-10 pounds and have gone down 2 sizes in clothes. I feel great! Here are the herbs for this week:

  • Che Qian Zi (Plantago asiatica--seed)
  • Chinese Number 0509011-20050901
  • Danshen Root (Radix Salviae Mil Tiorrhizae--Danshen)
  • Dodder Seed (Semen Cuscutae--Tusizi)
  • Fleeceflower Root (Radix Polygoni Multiflori--Heshouwu)
  • Himalayan Teasel Root (Radix Dipsaci--Xuduan)
  • Indian Bread (Poria--Fuling)
  • Largehead Atractylodes Rhizome (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae--Baizhu)
  • Nutgrass Galingale Rhizome (Rhizoma Cyperi--Xiangfu)
  • Tangshen (Radix Codonopsis--Dangshen)
