HOW DOES ACUPUNCTURE HELP WITH FERTILITY TREATMENTS?
PLEASE SEE THE ARTICLES BELOW.

Acupuncture increases blood flow to the ovaries and uterus to increase fertility with IVF.

Reduction of blood flow impedance in uterine arteries of infertile women with electro-acupuncture. Stonier-Victorin E, etal Human Reproduction 1996; 11:1314-1317. This study showed that blood flow to the uterine arteries was significantly increased not only during the time of treatments, but for up to 14 days after. This study shows that acupuncture can be particularly useful to women that have known blood flow issues to the uterus and ovaries, but it can help all women going through IVF. A series of acupuncture treatments are given preceding the IVF cycle 6-12 weeks prior to increase blood flow, balance hormones and reduce stress hormones that can have a negative impact on fertility rates during IVF. These treatments can assist in creating a thicker uterine lining and increased follicular maturation leading up to and during an IVF cycle. When women are injecting Follicle Stimulating Hormone medications like (Gonal-F, Menopur, Bravelle, Follistem, etc.), the increased blood flow can increase the efficacy of these drugs and decrease the cost associated with these expensive medications during an IVF cycle.

ACUPUNCTURE CAN ALSO DO THE FOLLOWING FOR NATURAL FERTILITY
AND ASSISTED REPRODUCTION:

• Increase the quantity and quality of follicles during maturation

• Increase blood flow to the uterus to increase uterine lining thickness and improve implantation

• Improve blood flow to the reproductive organs and prevent uterus contractions after embryo transfer

• Help to prevent OHS (Ovarian Hyper-stimulation Syndrome) and reduce side effects

• Diminish or eliminate side-effects of pharmaceuticals associated with fertility

• Decrease the chances of miscarriage by improving blood flow and relaxing the uterus

• Strengthen the immune system

• Ease emotional fluctuations and reduce stress associated with infertility

• Improve Male issues such as sperm count, motility, and morphology

ACUPUNCTURE FOR IVF EMBRYO TRANSFER:

There are 14 research studies published in the peer reviewed journal Fertility and Sterility. This journal is highly regarded internationally as one of the best resources for reproductive endocrinology research studies. These studies have indicated that acupuncture performed before and after IVF embryo transfer has increased the rates of pregnancy by as much as 35-50%.

HOW TO PREPARE YOUR BODY BEFORE IVF:

Receiving acupuncture 3-6 months prior to doing an IVF cycle can help a woman prime her body in order for follicular maturation, reducing stress hormones, balance and harmonize your system, improve sleep, lower stress, and increase blood flow to the uterus.
