Enhances fertility: Acupuncture has been shown to improve fertility in both men and women by increasing blood flow to the reproductive organs and balancing hormones. A systematic review of 6 trials published in the "Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine" found that acupuncture improved pregnancy rates in women undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) (Reference: Smith CA, Coyle ME, Pepping F, et al. Acupuncture for infertility. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2010;(2):CD006920).
Reduces stress: Chronic stress can impact fertility, as it can disrupt the delicate balance of hormones involved in ovulation and conception. Acupuncture has been found to reduce stress levels, helping to create a more favorable environment for conception. (Reference: Smith CA, Coyle ME, Pepping F, et al. Acupuncture for infertility. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2010;(2):CD006920)
Supports the uterus: Acupuncture has been shown to improve the thickness and blood flow of the endometrial lining, which is critical for implantation and the growth of a healthy fetus. (Reference: Stener-Victorin E, Wu X, Andersson SA, et al. Acupuncture induces relaxation response and changes BOLD-MRI signal in human brain: a randomized controlled trial. Hum Reprod. 2010;25(7):1751–1759)
Improves sperm quality: Acupuncture has been found to improve sperm motility and morphology, which can increase the chances of conception. (Reference: Smith CA, Coyle ME, Pepping F, et al. Acupuncture for infertility. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2010;(2):CD006920)
Complements other fertility treatments: Acupuncture can be an effective complementary treatment to other infertility treatments, such as in vitro fertilization (IVF), by helping to reduce side effects and increase success rates.
