2nd IVF attempt produced 7 eggs, 5 fertilized
Acupuncture Infertility Research
Fertility, IVF, and acupuncture are a fascinating study. My patients consistently report an increase in the number of eggs when combining acupuncture and IVF. The popularity of combining acupuncture with IVF is very helpful in explaining how acupuncture patients using acupuncture alone become pregnant. I contribute my high success rate to my advanced training in classical acupuncture. As results are reported I will post them online.
I am not the only one doing research on acupuncture and fertility. A German study showed that acupuncture Improves IVF Results and was reported in October 2004 at a meeting of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine. The research confirmed that acupuncture increases the success rate for patients receiving IVF treatment. The much talked about study, concluded that when acupuncture was added, 34 women in the acupuncture plus IVF group become pregnant. Compared to only 21 women receiving IVF alone.

"The best part of my job!"
Each patient treated at my office is given a Traditional Chinese Medicine diagnosis and traditional acupuncture treatment dependent on the diagnosis. Acupuncture is the only treatment modality applied.
