Question 1

Acupuncture for fertility, how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Acupuncture has a powerful effect on the reproductive system, alone or in conjunction with Western medicine. Acupuncture helps regulate the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Ovarian Axis. This helps to explain why acupuncture is incredibly effective at addressing a wide array of women’s health and fertility issues.

Question 2

Acupuncture points for fertility- where do the needles go?

Accepted Answer

There are many acupuncture points that help with fertility. We place ultra thin acupuncture needles in points on the body that stimulate the reproductive organs, such as the ovaries, the uterus and the fallopian tubes. These points are located on the lower abdominal area and are complemented with points on the arms and legs. Learn more here about the Chinese medicine system and fertility.

Question 3

When is the best time for acupuncture for fertility?

Accepted Answer

I recommend beginning your acupuncture treatments three months prior to conceiving. I like to think of this time as your “premester”. Your premaster is a time where we lay the foundation for a fertile environment for your baby. Read more about acupuncture for fertility here.
