Acupuncture for IVF is growing in popularity as a significant tool to increase success rates in IVF. Recent studies found that in women who had previously failed cycles, adding a acupuncture to their protocol for their next IVF cycle resulted in a 42% increase in live births, and baseline pregnancy rate continues to mediate acupuncture’s effects.

When Should You Start Acupuncture for IVF

For most couples undergoing IVF, they tend to only pursue fertility acupuncture leading up to and immediately after their Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET).

What most don’t know, however, is that fertility acupuncture is of massive benefit throughout the entire IVF process – from ovarian stimulation through retrieval and embryo transfer.

What Influence does Acupuncture have on IVF

Acupuncture improves the success rates at every stage of the IVF process – It increases the number of eggs retrieved as well as the quality of the embryos that result from that retrieval. It also improves fertilization rates when applied to both the male and female for three months prior to starting a cycle.

During transfer phase, it improves uterine lining thickness and receptivity, as well as decreases inflammation. It helps with blood flow to the Uterus and has a calming effect on the nervous system – both necessary for implantation and growth of a new pregnancy.
