Has anyone else heard of this or had experience with it? I asked my fertility specialist about it, but she was hesitant to encourage anything that wasn't medically related........ |

Hey, here is some info on it:
Acupuncture works best when a functional problem is the cause of infertility, specifically when endometriosis, ovulatory problems or hormonal imbalances are the cause for not getting pregnant. On the other hand, acupuncture has not been proven to be effective when structural problems, such as an improperly formed epididymis or a blocked fallopian tube, are the cause of infertility. Many women chose acupuncture infertility treatment either on its own or in conjunction with assisted reproductive technology (ART) procedures, such as IVF. Studies have proved the effectiveness of acupuncture for infertility. A 2004 study conducted by the Reproductive Medicine and Fertility Center in Colorado found that 51% of women who underwent both IVF and acupuncture treatment at the same time became pregnant, while only 36% of those who only underwent IVF did. The latter group also had higher rates of miscarriage stillbirth (20%) compared to those women who had received acupuncture (8%). All the best & good luck xxx |

I've heard that acupuncture can help to lengthen a short luteal phase. Also there's some (meta-analysis) to suggest an increase in the success rates of IVF when done in conjunction with acupuncture.

Your Doctor's reaction doesn't surprise me. Think of all the money insurance companies could save if acupuncture was covered...but then someone else would lose money so it won't happen.
