It shows how well your body is doing overall, along with your mental balance and social life, and it affects your energy, mood, relationships and long-term health.

Both the male and female systems are affected by lifestyle, age and medical conditions. For couples trying to conceive, the two are closely linked. About 40 to 50% of fertility problems involve the male partner, so it is not right to assume that infertility is only a woman\u2019s problem.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Ayurveda, the reproductive system is seen as producing the most refined tissue in the body. The male tissue is called <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shukra dhatu<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and the female tissue <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Artava dhatu<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

It can also suit couples in the preconception stage, three to twelve months before they plan a pregnancy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b> Do both partners need to take the kit?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The kit is built for couples, with a male part and a female part. Your HiiMS doctor will tell you who takes what, based on your reports and health history.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b> How long should I use the Dr Maa Paa Kit before expecting a change?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plan for at least three months. Sperm take about that long to develop, and eggs mature over a similar period, so the kit is not a quick fix.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b> Can I use the Dr Maa Paa Kit along with my current medicines?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tell your HiiMS doctor about every medicine and supplement you take, including those for PCOS, thyroid or sugar. Please do not stop or change any prescribed medicine on your own.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b> Do I still need a semen analysis or hormone tests if I take the kit?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes. The kit works best along with a medical check-up. Tests like semen analysis, hormone panels and ultrasound help your doctor decide the right dose and duration, and track how you are doing.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reproductive wellness is about much more than having children.
