Acupuncture and Fertility

Natural pregnancy & IVF/IUI Support

Whether you are looking for help conceiving through your western medical procedures like IVF or you want to conceive a child naturally, we are here to help. In my practice we've balanced hormone levels, regulated periods, and in some instances they have even returned. Sometimes all the body needs is a little help to it regain it's balance. We treat both male and female infertility with acupuncture and natural supplements.

How does acupuncture help improve fertility and IVF success rates?

 

  1. Improves the function of the ovaries to produce a better quality egg.

  2. Regulates the hormones to produce a larger number of eggs.

  3. Increases blood flow to the uterus and increases the thickness of the uterine lining.

  4. Decreases stress which can disrupt the balance of hormones.

  5. Decreases the chance of miscarriage.

​

Recent studies demonstrated that acupuncture before and after embryo transfer results in much higher pregnancy rates and lower miscarriage rates. This is incredibly exciting news for both first time IVF/ART patients and patients who have tried IVF/ART without success in the past.
