Acupuncture Fertility Treatment in Chicago

Ancient Wisdom, Modern Solutions

Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine have been used to treat infertility for over 6,000 years. In the US and Europe, promising modern research results have fueled a surge of interest in the use of acupuncture and Chinese medicine to treat infertility. Many women are now looking for ways to naturally improve their fertility, prevent or treat premature ovarian failure and improve the success rates of in vitro fertilization (IVF).

In the last few years, more and more reproductive doctors are recommending Acupuncture to increase fertility results. Especially for IVF/IUI procedures. There has been an increase in medical studies and research proving Acupuncture can increase the chances of conceiving by 30 to 60 %. Doctors and patients are seeing success with Acupuncture.

IVF and infertility can be a very expensive journey with varying rates of success, Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine can be a successful compliment to a planned IVF cycle. In the BMJ, British Medical Journal they did a meta-analysis of 7 different research studies and evidence indicated 30 to 60 % increase in fertility and pregnancy when IVF was combined with Acupuncture.

This study proves that it’s smart to get regular weekly Acupuncture during the fertility/IVF cycle in addition to before and after, within 24 hours of embryo transfer in helping women achieve pregnancy. Once Pregnant, weekly Acupuncture can help maintain a healthy pregnancy and help prevent miscarriages.

An Additional study published in Fertility and Sterility showed that acupuncture in conjunction with IVF almost doubled the success rates of IVF and pregnancy. Modern research suggests that Acupuncture can:

• Normalize hormone levels including GnRH, FSH, LH, estrogen and progesterone.
• Positively affect the Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Ovarian (HPO) axis.
• Regulates the hormones responsible for increasing the number of      follicles, improving follicular development, and initiating ovulation.
• Acupuncture lowers anxiety and creates calmness. It stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system to initiate the relaxation response.
  The parasympathetic nervous system acts like a brake and will calm
  your nervous system down to help you relax.
