Acupuncture
Acupuncture and fertility
Acupuncture is a great ally to prepare your body to conceive, to increase your chances of getting pregnant and to carry your pregnancy to term.
It is beneficial for :
-
Regulate the menstrual cycle (too long, too short or absent)
-
Develop quality eggs and maximize ovulation
-
Nourish the uterus to thicken the endometrium
-
Promote good implantation / reduce the risk of miscarriage
-
Alleviate stress and anxiety that can interfere with the process
Acupuncture optimizes fertility, whether natural, through intrauterine insemination (IUI) or through in vitro fertilization (IVF).
In all cases, it is ideal to start treatments at least 3 months before the project. The duration of treatment will generally vary between 3-6 months depending on the initial condition and a personalized treatment plan will be discussed at the first consultation.
If you begin a cycle of insemination or in vitro fertilization in the following month, we can also adapt with a more frequent treatment.
