As you have likely been told, age is a significant factor that can affect a woman’s ability to conceive. But the cause of decline in fertility is multifactorial, including decreases in viable number of eggs and variations in hormone levels. Hormones also rapidly shift later in child-bearing years, contributing to poor egg quality, decreased ovarian reserve, recurrent miscarriages, and menopause. In fact, by the time a woman reaches 40, her chance of conception declines to under 10%.

Traditional Chinese medicine has been practiced for thousands of years and includes techniques and practices such as Tai Chi, moxibustion, Tui Na, Chinese cupping, and acupuncture. Acupuncture in particular has rapidly grown in acceptance by the general public and practice among therapists today. Not only is acupuncture valued for stress relieving and relaxing benefits, but also as a component of fertility treatments.

When used in conjunction with Western fertility treatments, acupuncture increases conception rates by 26%. A recent study from Tel Aviv University reports, “When combining IUI with TCM treatments, 65.5 percent of the test group were able to conceive, compared with 39.4 percent of the control group, who received no herbal or acupuncture therapy.” For the 4.5 million couples experiencing infertility each year, acupuncture may be just what the doctor ordered.
