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?

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.

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.

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!!!!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

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

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