Trying Naturally
Before taking the jump to using oral medications or doing IUI’s or IVF, trying on your own with Acupuncture and herbs is a great option. As long as there is nothing physically impeding you from getting pregnant (e.g., tubal blockage or problematic uterine environment), Acupuncture can generally help regulate your cycle and optimize every month’s chance of being the one that works.

FAQs
How often do I need treatment?
For women, consistent treatment is important so specific hormonal adjustments can be made at each week of the cycle. Every week is a significant opportunity to heal a particular segment of the four-phase menstrual cycle (menstruation, follicular phase, ovulation and luteal phase).
Do you treat men who have low sperm?
Absolutely. Acupuncture and herbs have been shown to raise sperm counts and increase sperm motility for oligospermia. Acupuncture has its limits though. If a man is born without sperm, or has azoospermia, there's not much we can do. For male factor, a typical course of 10 weeks can do the trick, as it usually takes a full sperm generating cycle (approx 72 days).
When during my cycle should I start?
Since we break the cycle up into phases, we can start at any time and begin shifting that phase of the cycle. We usually recommend 2 treatments during the first week to kick start the effects of the acupuncture.
