Enhancing IVF Success: The Power of Acupuncture for Pregnancy


Embarking on the IVF journey comes with hope and challenges. Discover how acupuncture, when integrated with IVF, can significantly improve your chances of pregnancy while alleviating symptoms, reducing uterine contractions, and promoting emotional well-being.


Increase Your Chance of Pregnancy:

Experience a potential 65% increase in pregnancy rates by receiving acupuncture on the day of embryo transfer. A study published in the British Medical Journal (2008) revealed this remarkable enhancement in IVF success. (Manheimer, 2008)


Alleviate Symptoms After Egg Retrieval:

Combat post-egg retrieval discomfort, including inflammation, bloating, and pain, through acupuncture's effective relief. Boosted blood circulation and reduced inflammation promote a more comfortable and manageable recovery.


Reduce Uterine Contractions:

Create an ideal environment for embryo implantation by minimizing uterine contractions. Acupuncture helps to maintain a relaxed uterus, optimising the chances of successful implantation during IVF.



Minimize Hormonal Symptoms:

Ease hormonal side effects like nausea, headaches, cramping, bloating, and irritability associated with IVF medications. Acupuncture provides a natural approach, restoring hormonal balance and minimizing discomfort.


Calm Feelings of Stress and Anxiety:

Combat the emotional toll of the IVF journey with acupuncture's calming effects. By relaxing the nervous system and releasing endorphins, acupuncture offers profound relief from stress and anxiety.


Integrating acupuncture into your IVF journey can be transformative, enhancing your chances of pregnancy while supporting your overall well-being. With its potential to increase success rates, alleviate post-retrieval symptoms, reduce uterine contractions, and address hormonal discomfort, acupuncture becomes a powerful ally during IVF. Additionally, its ability to provide emotional support and alleviate stress and anxiety is invaluable.
