Who did acupuncture with the IVF transfer?
Suprisingly my IVF center has given me permission to show up a little early to meet with my acupuncturist for a session right before and after.
I'm just wondering if it's worth it - for those who have done it, did you feel it was beneficial?

Re: Who did acupuncture with the IVF transfer?
YES!!!!
My acu guy actually was on vacation the day of my transfer, so I saw him the night before, and then went to another acu guy immediately after being released from my transfer. I do believe it helped, but I believe my acupuncture for my 2nd cycle was a major player in my BFP.

I've done it 2x with good results the 1st time and not so good the 2nd time. However, I will be doing it again this time.

Re: Who did acupuncture with the IVF transfer?
I had my transfer today and went for a pre-transfer treatment yesterday evening and will go for a post-treatment session tomorrow morning. I don't know if it will help, but it is relaxing and it cant hurt.

Re: Who did acupuncture with the IVF transfer?
I went for acupuncture before, during and after both of my IVFs.
The second time it worked -- I was also going to a better acupuncturist!

Re: Who did acupuncture with the IVF transfer?
I did accupunture before and after the transfer. I really think that it helped! I have done accupuncture before for my back and it worked wonders, so I thought, why not?
The other tip the accupunturist gave me was to keep your middle warm.
Good Luck!!! I am pulling for you and your embryos!!!!

Yes. My acupuncturist came to my RE's office to do a treatment right before my transfer. It definately helped to calm me.
Good Luck

I did acupuncture right after my last transfer and I got pg. So I think it is a good idea.
