Flora Tajiki
Flora Tajiki is a midwife who graduated in 1992. Her journey into the world of fertility treatment began when she addressed her own polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) through lifestyle changes. Motivated by her success, she began treating women facing similar challenges. In 2016, Flora took to social media, sharing her treatment outcomes, which sparked interest from women experiencing infertility issues. Over time, she has gained widespread recognition for her holistic, non-hormonal approach to infertility treatment, centered on lifestyle modifications. By 2018, Flora had achieved breakthrough results in treating patients with low ovarian reserves and premature menopause—many of whom had been advised by conventional fertility centers to seek egg donation. Her innovative methods led to successful treatments, where patients’ anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels increased, and those diagnosed with premature menopause were able to conceive naturally. In 2020, Flora expanded her influence by beginning to train healthcare professionals. Over 1000 midwives, doctors, and specialists—both in Iran and internationally—have been educated in her unique techniques. Her patient success stories include more than 10000 women globally, with many from countries such as Germany, Spain, the UK, Finland, Norway, Italy, Japan, Turkey, Ireland, and Canada, who had previously been told that egg donation was their only option. Flora’s treatment methods have helped patients, many over the age of 40, to conceive without the use of hormonal drugs. Flora Tajiki’s work continues to make a significant impact in the field of midwifery and fertility treatment, helping thousands of women globally overcome infertility through her innovative, non-invasive approach.
