How to Improve a CHM Practice: lessons from some gynaecology cases

I have been practising Chinese medicine for about fifteen years, first acupuncture and then for eleven years Chinese herbal medicine. When I was asked to give a talk to the RCHM conference, to begin with I thought it was too soon for me to lecture, because this is such a complex system of medicine which takes years to understand, and I feel I am still only in the early stages of a practitioner's journey. However my clinical practice is increasing all the time, and becoming very effective, so I decided to share some reflections of what I have learned along the way.
