Chinese Medicine has a long history of treating women’s health - if fact, the earliest records of medical writings on gynaecology date right back to 1500-1000 BC.

During this time, there has been extensive research into how acupuncture is so effective for women’s health issues and in particular, enhancing fertility.

Acupuncture works by improving the blood flow to the uterus and the reproductive system. This has been shown to help primarily with the implantation of embryos, especially during IVF. It also raises levels of stress-coping hormones such as cortisol and prolactin when it is applied just before ovulation.By decreasing the body’s stress response, we can increase the change of fertilisation and implantation.

NUMBER ONE GOAL

The most important goal of acupuncture in fertility treatments is the regulation of menstruation and ovulation. That includes beginning and ending your period in a timely and correct manner and making sure that your flow is smooth and unhindered, without large clots and without excessive cramps.

OTHER BENEFITS OF TREATMENTS

Acupuncture also helps to strengthen your ovulatory functions and is very good at improving blood flow and building uterine lining quality. Acupuncture treatments are also helpful in encouraging implantation of the embryo, which is especially important for women using assisted reproductive techniques.

DURING IVF

In the last few years, published research studies have shown significant increases in IVF pregnancy rates when combined with acupuncture treatments.

In summary, acupuncture is very good for fertility and for your general health. It resets your circadian clock, reduces stress, helps you release endorphins, and adjusts your endocrine system. It also gets rid of underlying inflammation and solicits immunological balance. Best of all, acupuncture has minimal side effects and in a skilled hand, is virtually pain-free.
