I do acupuncture and love it. My acupuncturist not only does acupuncture treatments on me, but she looks at my temperature charts, gives me advice and also gives me some very effective herbal remedies. I have had a lot more EWCM since I started seeing her. And I feel far more relaxed about ttc. I totally recommend giving it a go (so long as you aren't freaked out by the needles, which by the way, seriously do NOT hurt).

i did quite a bit of reading today and it seems quite positive that it does work, read a lot of postive stories of people trying for years or who were told they wouldnt get pregnant and then did.

how long have you been trying?

i dont want to do it and just keep doing it if it doesnt work, does it get addictive?

I have been going since the end of September, and while I have not yet gotten a bfp, I do have more EWCM, and easier periods than before. I don't see how it could be addictive, its not like a drug or anything. You only do it if you feel it benefits you, and you are certainly going in order to get results. Its a kind of "therapy", so sometimes I think it takes a little time to work, but in my opinion, you can feel it working. It definitely brought ovulation on for me earlier this cycle.

I think its worth a try, if you are interested!

Hi Eternal.. ive been having acupuncture for 3 months now. I totally recommend it as i have had good results also although no bfp. I have 3 kids and had a chemical pregnancy in June,i think it was due to my short luteal phase of just 9 days or equally due to my age ,im nearly 40. After reading up on it helping with egg quality,luteal phase and so on ,i thought i have nothing to lose. Well its helped with my luteal phase,along with vit b6 complex it is now 12 days. Also i ovulate quite late in my cycle,average of day 20. For the last 2 weeks ive been on a prescribed prescription of herbs and this has brought forward my ovulation to day 16..I wasnt expecting it and missed any chances of BD around that time But on the good side if i continue to regulate ,i get more chances of conceiving Give it a go because its also very relaxing if anything.Also be open minded to chinese medicine in general as its so different to our western view. My acupuncturist is very hopeful of me conceiving so fingers crossed. Good luck to you all xx

I was ttc for 4 years and booked a course of 15 sessions. I was pregnant after 11 sessions which unfortunately ended in mc but I conceived again 2 months later.

Could be a coincidence but I'm converted!!
