Many Asian Nations have used acupuncture & Herbs to regulate the female reproductive system for thousands of years. Clinical and laboratory studies have shown that acupuncture affects the central and peripheral nervous systems. Precisley placed needles trigger the brain to release endorphins that help to moderate the stress response and help to balance hormone levels in the body.

Research has shown that acupuncture has a positive effect and no adverse effects on pregnancy outcome.

Acupuncture & Herbs improve fertility in many ways:

• Improving sperm count and mobility
• Improving egg quality and ovulation
• Reducing stress and anxiety associated with infertility
• Normalizing hormone production and endocrine systems
• Improving blood flow to the reproductive organs ( uterus and testes)
• Decreasing chance of miscarriage
• Decreasing inflammation that may be causing infertility
• Regulating the menstrual cycle
• Increasing the chance of pregnancy for women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) & intrauterine insemination (IUI)

We believe in integrated Reproductive Medicine which combines Eastern, Western, and other modalities of healing together to increase your chances of having a baby. We focus on healing and improving your overall and fertility health prior to treatment because a healthy body is a fertile body.

During the past 40 years an increasing amount of research has emerged showing the benefits of acupuncture with IVF and other fertility treatments. Acupuncture treatment has been linked to more babies, pregnancies, live births, and fewer miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies.

Experts recommend acupuncture for fertility is done during the following times:

• 30-90 days prior to any fertility treatment
• During any fertility treatment
• During pregnancy
• Preparing healthy pregnancy for Mom and baby

The sooner you can begin acupuncture treatment, the better. Research has shown that some treatment is better than no treatment, but acupuncture’s effectiveness increases with the number of acupuncture sessions prior to fertility treatment. Sperm and eggs both take approximately 90 days to develop. As such, we recommend you begin acupuncture treatment at least 3 months prior to treatment and continue throughout whatever treatment you are pursuing.Below are our recommended timelines for receiving acupuncture during the three months prior to fertility treatment as well as during ovulation induction, IUI cycles, and IVF cycles.

Acupuncture and Prescribed Herbs tonic is one of many ways that you can increase your fertility by customizing treatments depending on your body condition and symptoms, not an invasive surgical or Fluctuation of Hormone surging. It can positively impact many aspects of the fertility process including egg quality, Sperm quality implantation success, and pregnancy outcomes. We understand that fertility treatments are a long journey that may be stressful and ruin your lifestyle or even scary, But we hope this article has helped you to understand the benefits of fertility acupuncture and ease some of your concerns about treatment.
