Acupuncture Treatment for Fertility

Can Acupuncture really help with fertility issues? Yes. Acupuncture, when used in combination with fertility treatments, can help women to reduce stress, correct hormonal imbalances, strengthen the immune system, increase blood flow to the uterus, increase the thickness of the uterine lining, and reduce the negative side effects of fertility drugs. Acupuncture is also effective to increase fertility when used without medical fertility treatments.

Candidates for Acupuncture treatment for fertility include those dealing with:

  • Endometriosis
  • PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome)
  • Low sperm count
  • Poor egg quality
  • Low ovarian reserve
  • Advanced maternal age
  • Sperm DNA fragmentation
  • Immunological causes of infertility
  • Implantation failure
  • Recurrent miscarriage
  • Those undergoing IVF or ART procedures
  • Unexplained infertility

When should I begin Acupuncture?

Dr. Brown recommends that women begin Acupuncture three to six months before beginning fertility treatment. Studies show that the body needs at least 3 months before the true effects of Acupuncture can be shown. Just before and after undergoing fertility procedures, women may wish to receive one to two additional Acupuncture treatments. Because the majority of miscarriages take place within the first trimester, treatments are often recommended to continue for the first three months of pregnancy. These treatments help support the pregnancy and specific Acupuncture points are used to prevent miscarriage.

When should I stop getting Acupuncture?

Acupuncture for the infertile patient as well as the patient suffering with repeated pregnancy loss must be continued after pregnancy is achieved to increase the odds of a successful, full-term pregnancy. Because 90% of miscarriages occur within the first trimester, you should continue treatment until week thirteen to help prevent miscarriage.

Allow us to share with you our story of hope... Our relationship is one of a kind. Not many people get to experience the gift of finding that special soul mate. We met by chance, our souls being the guide to our union. From the moment we met, we both knew we wanted to share the beauty of life with each other. God was and continues to be our strongest connection. We both want to raise our kids believing in the divine power of his love. After three months of dating we agreed to start a family. The day was August 26, 2006, a year later on August 01, 2007 we discovered we were pregnant. Unfortunately, our joy didn't last for very long. We had a miscarriage on September 4, 2007. The sadness was overpowering, but we stayed positive understanding that God works in mysterious ways and things don't always go as planned. Our Doctor explained that sometimes this happens and the cause could be many different things, like stress or simply a chemical imbalance between the mother and the fetus.

I was at work when my companion called me about what he had just seen on television; how Acupuncture could help women who are struggling to get pregnant. We were a little skeptical, but agreed to try it. Using the Internet I found numerous specialists in Acupuncture, However Dr. Brown's web page was the most informative and his business hours worked with my schedule. My first visit with Dr. Brown was on December 6, 2007. I then continued to see Dr. Brown once a week, he recommended that I take the Wellness Essentials for Pregnancy Multi-vitamin/mineral and a herbal formula, Chasteberry Plus, for the support of menstrual regularity.

Fertility wasn't my only concern. I also had painful neck stiffness and tension, after only a couple visits I noticed my neck pain was completely gone. However, the most exciting results came two months later. On February 7, 2008 an ultrasound confirmed that we were 8 weeks and 4 days pregnant! We decided to continue with the treatments, now we are 22 weeks pregnant and look forward to sharing the rest our pregnancy with you... Dr. Brown's treatments have achieved amazing results in my life, something that no other Chiropractor has ever come close to. I'm very happy with his treatments and I would be more than happy to recommend him to anyone.

Thank God it was fast and painless. I'm glad I continued to visit Dr. Brown throughout my entire pregnancy, it made a big difference during my delivery. Acupuncture kept my stress level down, my nervous system in check and the alignments were heavensent because I didn't have any backache during my delivery. I find myself telling pregnant women to go see Dr. Brown if they want to make it easier on their bodies. Can I just say just how wonderful it was to find Dr. Brown. I still remember walking into his office very skeptical about Acupuncture, I was only there because Elliot asked me to try it. Now, every time I look at Aili, I thank God I did.

I would love to tell you how much you all have done for me. Lets start by telling you I had such a difficult time trying to get pregnant. It was a 10 year battle. 12 surgeries but it never happened. I was starting to lose hope. I had already gone through 3 bouts of in-vitro fertilization and I had all but given up. My husband had a friend at work who was going through the same thing. She was a patient of Dr. Brown's and had told me that Acupuncture was supposed to help with fertility. She got pregnant and had a baby girl. I thought, why not, I've done everything else and I had nothing to lose.

So I began my treatment. I went in for my in-vitro fertilization and got a call two weeks later that I was pregnant! I cannot even express to you how I felt. I never had a positive pregnancy test, so I knew this was different. I had a beautiful pregnancy and now have a beautiful 2 1/2 year old baby boy. So just to test the gods, I thought why not try again? I started my Acupuncture and now I'm seven months pregnant with my baby girl! We finally have the family we have always wanted. We have the beautiful boy, a little girl, the dog, all we need is the white picket fence. I know in my heart that this is all possible with the helping hands of Dr. Brown and everyone at the office. Thank you for all you did for me, I will never forget it.
