Fertility Acupuncture and IVF Acupuncture to Improve Conception

The best way to prepare for getting pregnant naturally is for your body and mind to be at their very best health.

This requires a healthy, receptive uterus and ovary, in order to implant an embryo and develop it to full term.

I am here to help you achieve this, using fertility acupuncture and fertility and lifestyle advice.

Let’s not forget the other half of the equation! The sperm! I am also here to help your partner achieve his optimum fertility. 

My commitment to you is to get an answer as to why you may have issues conceiving and make sure no stone has been left unturned to answer this question.

How Do We Work Together?

I tailor every treatment to your individual needs — whether we’re solving the puzzle of unexplained infertility or helping you manage conditions like endometriosis, PCOS, or other gynaecological issues. If you’re going through IVF, I provide tailored support to improve outcomes.

Your Initial Consultation

Our journey starts with a 90-minute initial consultation. During this session, we take a deep dive into your health and fertility:

  • Review your medical records and charts
  • Identify any missing or repeat tests needed
  • Assess your general and fertility health, lifestyle and any genetic or family issues
  • Discuss your partner’s health and encourage their involvement

 

After your consultation, you’ll receive a bespoke plan that includes:

  • Recommendations for further investigations and specialist referrals
  • Advice on clinics and treatment options
  • Nutrition and supplement plans tailored to your needs
  • Lifestyle guidance to enhance your fertility health
  • Discounts on high-quality supplements

 

Exploring Every Avenue

One of the most frustrating parts of fertility treatment is the gaps in care often left by NHS services and some IVF clinics. Due to funding limitations or a focus on moving quickly to IVF, important tests and investigations are sometimes missed.

But I believe in leaving no stone unturned. Just like you wouldn’t undergo heart surgery without a thorough investigation, your fertility journey deserves the same level of care and attention. I’ll make sure we explore every possible pathway to help you reach the goal of a healthy conception and pregnancy.

Using your test results and my diagnosis, I will use acupuncture, heat lamp, moxa, Improving your fertile health

We’ll also explore your menstrual health in depth. Using a basal temperature chart, I will work to make your cycle pain-free, regular, and ovulation-optimized. I will fine-tune your general health and look at bacterial health in your gut and vagina, both of which can impact fertility and miscarriage risk.

Hormone, vitamin, and thyroid levels (including antibodies) will also be carefully checked. I’ll also review sperm health, including male hormone tests, blood tests, and semen cultures.

Collaborating with Experts for a Comprehensive Approach

I work closely with experts from various fields to give you the most well-rounded fertility care possible. For example, I collaborate with specialist sonographers skilled in advanced imaging techniques like Colour Doppler imaging. This sophisticated method shows detailed blood flow through organ tissues and can uncover conditions like:

  • Adenomyosis (endometriosis within the uterine muscle wall)
  • Hormonal imbalances like oestrogen dominance, which are often linked to fibroids and endometriosis

These insights are crucial for understanding the root causes of fertility challenges and improving your chances of a successful pregnancy.

How Many Sessions Will You Need?

That 90 to 100-day window before ovulation or egg retrieval is your golden opportunity! During this time, the egg is maturing — and everything you do can make a difference and because of this I recommend you have acupuncture for at least 3 months, weekly if possible.  With the right support, like acupuncture, targeted nutrition, and lifestyle changes, we can improve egg quality and create the best possible environment for conception

Why Work With Me?

As a Fertility Support Trained acupuncturist, I have advanced training and a deep understanding of both Eastern and Western approaches to fertility. This enables me to:

  • Interpret your test results and identify areas needing further investigation
  • Guide you through IVF and hospital appointments
  • Suggest additional tests or consultants you may not have been offered yet
  • Help you achieve peak fertility through tailored treatment and lifestyle recommendations

 

Some real-life scenarios I frequently see:

  • Low Sperm Morphology: Clinics may tell you that 4% morphology is fine, but I know this number can and should be improved for better chances of conception. I’d refer your partner to a Reproductive Urologist for additional tests like DNA fragmentation and recommend lifestyle changes and acupuncture to enhance sperm health.
  • Autoimmune Signs: If you have a history of conditions like ME, fibromyalgia, or psoriasis, it could indicate an overactive immune system that’s affecting your fertility. I can refer you to a Reproductive Immunologist who specializes in helping your body accept an embryo and prevent immune-related pregnancy loss.
  • Unexplored Tests: Sometimes, clinics skip crucial tests like thyroid antibodies, Vitamin D levels, or a HyCoSy to check fallopian tube health. I ensure all essential tests are covered so you’re not left wondering what might have been missed.
