Pink, Good luck on the Clomid! I think that could be just the boost you need. I'm so glad you called your acu on his wrong predictions. And yeah, it is interesting how many of us who were gung ho on acu have now moved on. I do think that acu can help a lot of women, but it is not some miracle cure all for everyone. I believe that if it is going to help then it will happen within three months. If it takes longer, then it's a good idea to seek out help of an RE at the same time as the acu. I think for me, I was afraid to go to an RE, so I used acu as a way to put that off.
In my case, I stuck with acu for 6 months before seeking out help from a RE. After two failed Clomid cycles, I'm now I've been told I will need surgery! It would have been a waste of money for me to continue with acu alone with the problems it looks like I have. Plus, the failed predictions and diagnoses really made me feel depressed. I really wish I had not waited so long to go to a doctor.
Briss, that is so frustrating when you feel you can't communicate with your acu. I dropped my acu over that issue as well. That really sucks that you are not only not seeing improvements, but things are getting worse. Have you thought about seeing another acu?? I'm not sure whether feeling your ovaries is a good sign or not. It could be anything and that is what is so frustrating about TTC.
Blythe, I'm so glad you were able to find a good acu. I wish more of them understood the emotional side of TTC. My acu was good at placing the needles and the technical side of acu but she really knew nothing about infertility or even some of the basics behind TTC, and that was really frustrating. I felt like she was just spinning her wheels there for a while too and had no clue what was going on. I was going to continue to go, but the emotional part just got too hard on me.
