IVF and ICSI

This is what we refer to as the preconception phase. The health of the parents before and at the time of conception, and the mother's health during the early stages of her pregnancy have an influence on the health of the baby. It is during this time we hope to optimize your reproductive health.
It is optimal to treat for at least 3 months to properly regulate the menstrual cycle, balance Yin & Yang (hormonal activity), and to optimize egg quality. Women s follicles are recruited over 3-5 months before being chosen for ovulation. Therefore, the quality of your eggs are actually determined during the 3-5 months before your IVF cycle begins. This is why it is recommended to allow adequate time during the preconception phase to nurture nature and allow for at least three months for your treatments and healthier life style habits to take affect.
You can still receive and benefit from acupuncture support during your IVF without having any preconception treatments.

Two acupuncture treatments/week (at least 6 weeks before egg retrieval) to:
- Increase blood flow to ovaries - assist with ovarian response to drugs;
- Increase blood flow to uterus - better lining then better chance of implantation;
- Treat the side effects of medications;
- Relax - Studies have shown how stress can negatively impact fertility. Acupuncture can reduce the effects of stress and, optimizing your IVF/ICSI cycle.

Acupuncture treatment 5-10 days after transfer to assist with implantation and pregnancy support
