The ovaries produce a new egg after each menstrual cycle. A fertilized egg goes down the fallopian tubes and into the uterus. In most cases, the egg and the sperm will finally meet along the fallopian tube.

A woman, however, cannot become pregnant if both tubes are blocked, regardless of whether one of her eggs is fertilized or not. The obstructions in the tubes range from complete to only partial. Pregnancy outside of the uterus, or tubal pregnancy, is possible. It is known as pittaja yoni vyapada in Ayurveda. In this case, yonivyapad is like a genital infection.

FMS is an ordeal of pervasive, widespread and migratory pain and stiffness that strikes muscles and connective tissues, as well as tendons, ligaments, bursae and joints. The intensity varies depending on time of day, activity level, immune status, weather, sleep patterns and stress, and can extend over weeks or months, only to mysteriously improve after awhile.

Up to 90 percent of patients experience chronic headaches, and many have allergies, fatigue, hormonal imbalances, hypoglycemia, nasal congestion, vasomotor rhinitis and neurotransmitter dysregulation.

Because FMS produces no definitive laboratory results, the diagnosis is one of exclusion. When all other possibilities have been excluded, FMS is what is left. The nomenclature is dense and confusing, but FMS is officially diagnosed when the following symptoms are detected5:

Many FMS sufferers experience their worst pain at several focal tender points, although the pain often radiates so generally that patients may be unaware of their presence until the point is palpated specifically.

A very common feature in case histories is a triggering event that may be physical, such as whiplash sustained in a car accident. Psychological trauma and viral infections also are common triggers. In one case-control study, 39 percent of FMS patients had significant physical trauma six months before the onset of their disease.9

A French team reports that a persistent enterovirus infection in muscles may be to blame for some cases of fibromyalgia and other chronic muscle diseases. In 2003, they detected genetic material from enteroviruses in 20 percent of muscle biopsies from patients with chronic muscle diseases, and 13 percent of patients with FMS and/or CFS, but not from healthy volunteers.11

The overwhelming clinical consensus, too, is that FMS is profoundly connected with sleep disturbance in a whopping 90 percent of the cases.12,13,14,15 Both chronic fatigue syndrome and FMS have dysregulated sleep physiology, with increased nocturnal vigilance and light, non restorative sleep.16 These sleep disturbances originate from central nervous system imbalances associated with altered functions of serotonin, substance P, interleukin-1, growth hormone and cortisol.17

Jillian Stansbury, ND, chair of the botanical medicine department of the National College of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon, seconds the idea that poor sleep is the biggest contributor to FMS symptoms. Her individualized treatments always include a component, such as gentle exercise, to improve sleep.

Massage, properly performed, seems particularly helpful in treating fibromyalgia. Patients consistently report that they find bodywork to be the top therapy for providing short-term relief and long-term improvement.18

In an effort to find out just what actually does help people feel better, German scientists took a look at various therapies and concluded that massage was ranked in the top four for patient satisfaction.19

Exercise in warm water seems to be particularly beneficial. A recent waist-high warm water exercise study cites long-term lowered pain and increased strength.22 A study published in the Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine found that warm water exercise provided long-term physical and mental progress.23

FMS sufferers often get a lot out of yoga and relaxation techniques, as well. In a six-week randomized pilot study, researchers adapted a yoga program for FMS chronic back pain. The participants demonstrated improved balance and flexibility, and were less disabled and depressed. The group setting encouraged better body awareness and improved relaxation.24
