Supporting your fertility journey with natural, evidence-based care.
At Sana Acupuncture & Wellness Center, we understand how emotional and overwhelming the fertility journey can be. Whether you’re trying to conceive naturally or using assisted reproductive technologies (like IUI or IVF), acupuncture can be a powerful, supportive tool to help regulate your cycle, reduce stress, and improve overall reproductive health.
How Acupuncture Supports Fertility
Acupuncture works by improving blood flow to the reproductive organs, balancing hormones, calming the nervous system, and supporting optimal conditions for conception. It can help address underlying conditions like irregular cycles, PCOS, endometriosis, or unexplained infertility.
Research shows that acupuncture may improve pregnancy outcomes. In fact:
• A 2018 review in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine found that women undergoing IVF had a 65% higher chance of pregnancy when they received acupuncture on the day of embryo transfer compared to those who did not.
• Studies have shown that acupuncture can reduce stress and anxiety — two factors known to affect fertility — by regulating cortisol and promoting parasympathetic nervous system activity.
• One clinical trial found that women receiving acupuncture for fertility support had improved ovulation rates, endometrial thickness, and hormone levels compared to controls.
