Acupuncture for IVF Support
For anyone going through IVF treatment, a supplementary treatment of acupuncture is highly recommended. IVF is approximately 30% successful and Chinese Medicine has been shown to increase the success rates of IVF by 50% as it can improve the success rate by 20%.
Supplementary treatments to IVF will respect Western medical procedures.
On the down-regulating phase, acupuncture treatment will focus on reducing the side-effects of LHRH (Buserelin, Naferelin).
Once Fertility injection (FSH) commences, acupuncture treatment will focus on enhancing ovary activity in order to make it more responsive to FSH. Priming endometrium for implantation follows in the Embryo Transfer phase.
