In Chinese acupuncture philosophy each fertility case is assessed according to that person’s unique medical history and their current state of health.  According to Chinese Medicine each person has an individualized set of imbalances that when corrected will render optimum health.  Problems often addressed with acupuncture are low ovarian reserve, hormonal imbalances, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), lack of ovulation (annovulation), irregular cycles, menstrual irregularities, implantation problems, recurrent miscarriage and male fertility.  

Acupuncture for fertility enhances circulation to the reproductive organs increasing the amount of nourishment to heal reproductive organs and tissues, various hormonal imbalance can be addressed, the quality of eggs and uterine lining is improved, menstruation and periods are regulated, cycles become more regular and predictable.

An additional bonus to the health benefits of acupuncture are mental emotional benefits.  Fertility treatments can be a time of great stress and mixed emotions.  Acupuncture works very well with quelling anxiety, lifting depression, taking the edge off stress and easing the emotional rollercoaster that sometimes accompanies hormone medications.
