It depends on what your husband's test & consultation reveal. My acupuncturist wasn't going to put any needles unless my husband needed it. She asked a lot of questions - lifestyle, eating, drinking habits, work/stress levels, medical history. His tests did not reveal anything that hindered fertility so the onus was really on me.

Thank you NEWBIE. Your posts r helpful. Thx u for sharing
Has anyone tried Dr. Sum of Health & Joy TCM Clinic ? I got his name indirectly from some success stories . I will go for IVF in the next few months and try to have acupuncture and herbs within this ?preparation window?, and hop that I can pregnant naturally ! Or any other recommendation ? Troy is good but expensive.
Hi, I saw this thread while TTC and tried out Dr. Sum at Health & Joy based on recommendations here and elsewhere. I went just before ovulation (it felt like the acupuncture boosted this process) as well as a week later, during implantation, and I got pregnant that cycle!
I don't believe acupuncture is a cure-all, but I was spotting a lot before and after my periods, and I was concerned about ovulation, and this is the kind of thing that acupuncture can really address. Also, Dr. Sum isn't super-communicative, but he's extremely competent, and I'd done enough research to feel confident that acupuncture would be helpful in regulating blood flow and hormones. It seems to have paid off, and I plan to continue seeing him during my pregnancy.
Good luck to all the other ladies!

Hello Inti,
I have just read your post and was wondering how successful you were with the accupuncture from the Health and Joy clinic? I am currently seeing him now as well. I found out i was pregnant a week ago so i went to have accunpuncture done as i hear that it's good to help with prevention of miscarriage ( I miscarried in Feb 2015) I just wanted to find out whether you were happy with the service as i am a lot less stressed and been taking the chinese herbal meds religiously and also doing moxibustion at home.
I look forward to hearing from you.
