Exploring Acupuncture for Fertility Challenges

Last Updated on 11 October 2024 by Brisbane Livewell Clinic

Several recent studies indicate that Acupuncture for Fertility Issues can help address a wide range of potential issues. Although it isn’t certain whether Acupuncture can enhance fertility, some independent studies show promising results. In fact, a study from Tel Aviv University states that Acupuncture boosts conception rates by 26% when combined with modern fertility treatments, such as IUI.

Acupuncture involves the insertion of tiny metal needles into the skin. Acupuncturists insert these needles into specific pressure points to reduce stress and anxiety. It helps release the ‘feel-good chemicals’ known as endorphins throughout the body, which makes you feel relaxed during treatment.

Besides stress reduction, Acupuncture enhances blood flow to the reproductive organs. It helps boosts blood flow and oxygen to the uterus. Improved blood flow to the uterus can help a better chance of embryo implantation in IVF. It also helps balance the endocrine system. Many health practitioners may recommend acupuncture as an adjunct treatment that may assist with IVF treatment. There is continuing research about how Acupuncture can assist with the effectiveness of IVF treatment and you should consult your treating practitioner/s about how acupuncture may be able to help you.
