Clizard, my acu doc said if the treatment is going to work I will see some reduction in FSH levels in 3 months. if nothing changes then it's probably cos FSH went up due to lower egg reserve in which case there probably nothing else that can be done. I checked my FSh levels this cycle, about 1.5 months into the treatment and it's still high 13-16. I had about a year of acu/herbs treatment last year with a different doc but it did not have any effect on my cycle length or FSH level, if anything they only went up even higher but this doc seems to be targeting specifically FSH, although acu points he is needling are the same as what I had needled before but the herbs are different. I am hoping his treatment will help. I went ahead with my reserve testing at the fertility clinic because I got panicky (approaching my yet another birthday) I do not want to lose any more time trying to get my FSH down. If it works it'll be great and will help with IVF going better anyway. if they refuse IVF I will have to go privately or go abroad. or maybe we just go back to natural IVf.
