Alternative medicine for fertility

Hi everyone, Af showed up a few days ago and that was a bummer but Im ready to ttc again and hope this will be our month.  I just wanted to tell anyone interested that I have been reading a lot about alternative medicine like chinese herbs and accupuncture and I would encourage anyone who is realy struggling with infertility or stuff like irregular cycles to check it out.  Anything is worth a try to prevent another pregnancy loss and some of the success stories that I read were pretty impressive.  Plus, I dont know what its worth but I read something that said China had one of the lowest infertility rates in the world.  I making my accupuncture appointment this week! Ill keep you posted.

So do any of you ladies here get acupuncture as apart of your treatment?
I am super excited........I go see one on my CD6 (CD4 of Gonal-F) & I have a good feeling about this!  I think it's pretty big when allopathic Dr.'s say they recommend it.  I tend to go "a' la natural" w/most every other aspect of my life & I really think this can be a good thing.

I also am planning to go & get a few massage's to just be relaxed more!.

Any experiences or thoughts w/this?????

I'm doing clomid and IUI this month and have been seeing an accupuncturist the whole month.  I've had about 6 treatments....he said if the IUI didn't work that we'd do some more aggressive stuff to help.  I'm hoping it will benefit this!
