Several clinical studies have shown the benefits of increased pregnancy rates when receiving acupuncture during In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) treatment. Recently, in 2016, scientists at Homerton University Hospital in East London presented a study at the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology. The findings of their study indicated that the pregnancy rate of those who utilized acupuncture with their treatment was 46.2% which was more than double the pregnancy rate of those who did not receive acupuncture (21.7%). Acupuncture reportedly assists by helping to improve the blood flow to the uterine artery, potentially aiding in a pregnancy.
Acupuncture treatment throughout a fertility treatment cycle is believed to provide increased overall benefits and Community Acupuncture has a specialized program to assist patients undergoing infertility treatment. They offer acupuncture treatments for all stages of treatment care through the 1st trimester of pregnancy.
