For many couples and individuals trying to conceive, the journey to parenthood can be filled with emotional and physical challenges. If you're seeking a gentle, holistic approach to support fertility, fertility acupuncture San Francisco may offer the balance and hope you've been looking for.

What Is Fertility Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is an ancient healing practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), involving the insertion of ultra-thin, sterile needles at specific points on the body. These points correspond with energy pathways, or meridians, which regulate the flow of Qi (life force energy) throughout the body. When this energy is disrupted, it can affect hormonal balance, reproductive health, and overall well-being.

Fertility acupuncture is a specialized branch of acupuncture that focuses on enhancing reproductive function in both women and men. It works by regulating hormonal imbalances, improving blood flow to reproductive organs, reducing stress, and supporting the body's natural processes for conception.

How Acupuncture Supports Fertility

At Dr. Cindi Ignatovsky’s San Francisco acupuncture clinic, the focus is on individualized care that aligns with each patient’s fertility goals. Whether you're trying to conceive naturally or undergoing assisted reproductive treatments like IVF or IUI, fertility acupuncture can provide critical support.

Here’s how acupuncture may help improve fertility:

• Regulates menstrual cycles and ovulation

• Improves ovarian function and egg quality

• Enhances uterine lining for implantation

• Increases blood flow to the uterus and ovaries

• Reduces anxiety and stress hormones

• Balances endocrine and reproductive systems

• Supports male fertility by improving sperm quality and motility

When Should You Start Fertility Acupuncture?

Dr. Cindi recommends starting acupuncture treatments for fertility at least 3 months before attempting to conceive. This allows the body time to rebalance and strengthen its internal systems. For those undergoing IVF, acupuncture is especially helpful when done during the stimulation phase, before and after embryo transfer, and during the two-week wait.
