Benefits of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine in treatment for both Female and Male infertility: It is notable that the treatment of both Female and Male Infertility has been described in Chinese medical texts dating back to the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC - 24 AD). It is theorized that acupuncture's positive effect on pregnancy outcomes may be due to its impact in the following ways: Improve the function of the ovaries to produce higher quality eggs Regulate the Endocrine System Increase blood flow to the uterus and increase the thickness of the uterine lining Relax the muscles in the uterine wall Relax and de-stress the entire body Prevent uterine contraction post IVF embryo transfer A study done at Harvard showed that stress might reduce the function of the hypothalamic-anterior pituitary-ovarian axis, thus contributing to infertility. Beta-endorphins released via acupuncture intervention interrupts the negative activity of the sympathetic nervous system causing dilation of the arteries facilitating increased blood flow to the uterine lining and ovaries. Thus, the lining thickens and there is sometimes improved egg quality. Acupuncture treatments by a highly trained specialist, used as an adjunct to state of the art biomedical fertility care provides reinforcement to realizing a full term pregnancy. I am available for IVF treatments at local area Fertility Centers on the day of embryo transfer 7 days a week and 362 days a year.
