Acupuncture is one of the most popular forms of alternative medicine used to improve fertility and treating infertility. 1 in 4 couples seek acupuncture to help them conceive. To achieve pregnancy, your body requires the help of many hormones (e.g., FSH, LH, Estrogen, and Progesterone) to work together in harmony. Acupuncture helps to regulate hormones which in turn, helps with more regular menstrual cycles, more regular ovulation, better follicular development, and better uterine lining. These are just a few ways acupuncture can help with fertility, read below to find out more on how acupuncture can improve your chance of fertility.
