Acupuncture for Fertility

Trying to conceive can be a long and emotional rollercoaster for many couples. Acupuncture can be a positive and beneficial treatment to aid the chances of natural conception and also support the process of assisted conception. The holistic approach of Chinese Medicine aims to restore the balance of the body back to normal functioning in order to help where possible for women to conceive naturally.

Possible causes of infertility:
- Lifestyle factors
- Age
- Blocked fallopian tubes
- Endometriosis
- Polycystic ovarian syndrome
- Compromised s***m quality

How acupuncture helps:
- Lowers stress hormones
- Regulates FSH
- Improves blood flow to the pelvic area, ovaries and uterus
- Regulates the immune system

Acupuncture for IVF
Acupuncture is also used successfully in the preparation for and during IVF cycles. Weekly acupuncture throughout the cycle is suggested, however, it can also be helpful on the day of embryo transfer as it has a hugely calming affect on patients which is vital before and after transfer.

Treatment
An initial consultation will include in depth discussion about the patient, including, all bodily functions, lifestyle, their history and family history. All treatments are tailored specifically to the patient and a realistic treatment plan is discussed and put in place.
