1. Triple burner moxibustion: Triple burner is an important theoretical concept in traditional Chinese medicine. It is responsible for regulating the body\’s water and liquid metabolism and the movement of qi and blood.

Moxibustion can promote blood circulation in the endometrium, increase the thickness and softness of the uterine wall, and improve the success of pregnancy. Rate. You can choose to perform moxibustion on the uterine acupoint (located in the center of the abdomen) for about 15-20 minutes each time, 2-3 times a week.
3. Kidney meridian moxibustion: The kidney is an important part of the human reproductive system. Moxibustion can regulate kidney function, improve the quality of eggs and sperm, and increase the probability of pregnancy.

You can choose to perform moxibustion on the Guanyuan acupoint (located in the lower middle of the navel) for about 15-20 minutes each time, 2-3 times a week.

Adjust the frequency appropriately according to personal conditions. In addition, you should maintain a relaxed attitude during moxibustion to avoid overexertion and mood swings. Maintaining a regular schedule and a balanced diet are also important aspects of pregnancy preparation.

However, please note that you need to consult a professional Chinese medicine practitioner or doctor during pregnancy preparation, and determine the specific method and frequency of moxibustion based on your personal physical condition.
