Fertility Acupuncture Explained
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves inserting thin needles into the skin at specific points on the body. Here are some ways acupuncture may help with fertility:
Regulating hormones
Acupuncture may help regulate hormones such as estrogen and progesterone, which can impact fertility.
Improving blood flow
Acupuncture may help improve blood flow to the uterus and ovaries, which can increase the chances of conception.
Reducing stress
Acupuncture can be a relaxing and stress-reducing experience, which may improve fertility.
Complementing fertility treatments
Acupuncture may be used as a complementary treatment to other fertility treatments such as IVF.
While more research is needed to fully understand the impact of acupuncture on fertility, it may be a safe and effective option for some couples struggling to conceive.
