Acupuncture for Fertility

  • Unexplained infertility

    Based on your menstrual history and our exam findings, we identify imbalances in the body that is affecting fertility. Thee imbalances are not found on blood tests or images. By correcting these imbalances, we have helped women achieve natural pregnancy, even when they have failed IVF mutiple times before

  • Egg quality

    Egg quality depends on two factors: DNA integrity and the environment in which they develop and mature. We cannot influence the DNA integrity. However we can improve the environment in which eggs develop by improving circulation that brings nourishment while removing metabolic waste

  • IVF & IUI Support

    We have worked with many reproductive endocrinologists to improve IVF and IUI success rates by improving egg quality and uterine environments. We work with you based on the timing of your procedures

  • Endometriosis

    We have a comprehensive and effective set of acupuncture and herbal treatments to both manage endometriosis while improving the chance of pregnancy, either through IVF/ IUI or naturally

  • Sperm quality/ male factor

    It takes two to tangle. We help with male factory infertility by improving sperm quality that can be measured by semen analysis

  • Recurrent miscarriages

    Recurrent miscarriages are often marked by subtle imbalances in the body. We typically start treatment a few month prior to conception to correct imbalances and mitigate the chance of future miscarriages

Imbalances in the body disrupt normal physiological function related to fertility. This can result in poor follicular and uterine response to endocrine stimulating hormones resulting in poor egg quality, fewer eggs, thin uterine lining, poor implantation, excessive macrophages, and high concentration of NK cells that attack the embryo as an autoimmune response. We have treatment protocols that use acupuncture and Chinese herbs to detect and rectify such imbalances and optimize the flow of blood to ovaries and uterus, which removes toxin and brings nourishment. This creates an embryo-friendly environment conducive to pregnancy, either naturally or through IUI or IVF.
