She has helped many women who have tried IVF several times unsuccessfully by incorporating acupuncture with their IVF treatment. The majority of them become pregnant and attribute it to the acupuncture. They say that their experience was much different and easier while incorporating the acupuncture. Patients experience less side effects from the Western medications and feel more at ease throughout the process.
Treatment frequency and duration varies depending on your condition and other treatments you are receiving. Acupuncture is usually recommended once and sometimes twice per week. Treatments are timed prior to any procedure and around ovulation and embryo implantation.
