How Acupuncture Can Help with Fertility

"In late November I became pregnant!!"

I had been trying to get pregnant for just about a year and during that year I experienced a miscarriage around 2 months. After trying for almost a year I became concerned, so I started seeing a fertility specialist. I saw a total of two -- both said my chances of conceiving on my own were less than 15%. I remember being just devastated and wasn’t sure if I should try what they recommended (IVF), mostly due to the cost they predicted. It would have taken 2 to 3 times, which would have been over $25K.

I started my own research and found some great information on Acupuncture. So I gave it a try. I started in September going 3 times a week, then in early November I went down to 2 visits and I'm happy to share with you I became pregnant sometime in late November!!!!

My pregnancy was problem-free and I’m just one week from my due date. Acupuncture was really great for me. It made me feel relaxed (loved the music in the room) and it didn’t hurt at all. I so enjoyed working with Rene and I'm so grateful to her in helping  me become pregnant!!!!

Many women have turned to Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese herbal medicine when they have been faced with infertility issues. These ancient modalities have proven to be very effective in helping many overcome obstacles to successful conception, pregnancy and childbirth.

Acupuncture and herbal treatment may be used in conjunction with IUI, IVF, and other assisted reproductive treatments. They may be also utilized as the sole treatment modalities to help a woman get pregnant, prevent miscarriage, and maintain a successful pregnancy. Acupuncture and Chinese herbs accomplish this in the following ways by:

  1. regulating menstruation and ovulation
  2. promoting balanced hormone secretion
  3. increasing the quality and quantity of eggs
  4. increasing blood flow to the uterus to create a thicker uterine wall
  5. regulating hormone output after conception and implantation to prevent miscarriage
  6. alleviating common symptoms of pregnancy such as nausea, hypertension, sciatica and other common problems
  7. helping correct malposition of fetus (breech or transverse) and helping to avoid Cesarean surgery
  8. promoting a safe, natural and rewarding childbirth experience
