I did acupuncture 30 minutes before and immediately after on our first IVF and I'm 6 weeks pregnant. Can't say acupuncture made the difference but I did it because several friends were successful on second attempt when acupuncture was the only added change to the cycle. I spoke with me RE about it and he recommended it as well.
I also added acupuncture after a chemical miscarriage from 1st ivf..i also got a BFP this month.!.i went once a week and found it really helped with the stress..i am continung throughout my pregnancy every other week! My Re also recommended it!
Hi
YES I swear by it first ICSI cycle failed so we tried acupuncture and all of my test results were a 100 times better 8 weeks pregnant now following our 2nd cycle which I put down to acupuncture! hope this helps and good luck
Published research (I searched pubmed before ivf) shows that accupuncture does not improve probability of success during ivf but it does help you relax.
Good luck!
