Acupuncture and IVF 

 

Clinical trials suggest that the use of acupuncture in conjunction with assisted reproductive technology such as IVF significantly improves outcome.  A recent review of clinical trials, published in the British Medical Journal found that using acupuncture with IVF resulted in a:  

 

*65% increase in pregnancy 

*87% increase in likelihood of pregnancy continuing 

*91% increase in live birth rate 

   

In clinical trials acupuncture is performed shortly before and after embryo transfer.  As a TCM acupuncturist, I encourage my fertility clients to have regular acupuncture treatment throughout the course of their IVF process.  Treatment is given once a week, for several weeks leading up to embryo transfer.  This ensures that a woman’s qi and blood are strong and balanced, thus, increasing her wellbeing and health prior to conception, and increasing the likelihood of a healthy pregnancy.
