Fertility: Menstruation, Ovulation and Pregnancy - How can Acupuncture help?

Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine offer an effective, time-tested approach to enhancing Fertility and treating infertility. In fact, acupuncture has been used successfully for male and female Infertility treatment over the past 2000 years.

Acupuncture and Chinese medicine can be used in combination with conventional Reproductive Medical Care or as a primary treatment approach. Acupuncture can be effective for women taking Fertility drugs or Reproductive Technology techniques (such as IVF or IUI).

A.R.T. - Assisted Reproductive Therapy (common medical procedures)

• IVF      (In Vitro Fertilization)
• IUI    (Intrauterine Insemination)
• ISCI    (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection)
• GIFT   (GAmete Intrafallopian Transfer)
• ZIFT    (Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer)

Common Fertility Drugs used to induce ovulation:

• Clomid
• Urofollitropin and Recombiant FSH
• GnRH

Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese medicine can also be effective as a standalone approach to treat infertility for those not undergoing conventional medical treatment.

Acupuncture helps to regulate hormonal activity, thus regulating menstruation, ovulation, and pregnancy.

A recent study from the British Medical Journal found that among women who received acupuncture and IVF, the pregnancy rates were 65% higher and the rates of live births were nearly twice as high than among women who received IVF with sham acupuncture or no acupuncture.

Acupuncture helps to reduce stress and decrease the hyper sympathetic nervous system response. Studies have shown that high stress levels decrease the likelihood of conceiving.

Acupuncture has been shown to stimulate chemical changes within the uterine lining, thickening the endometrium and preparing the uterus for implantation.

In men, Acupuncture can improve sperm motility, volume and concentration as well as increase libido.
