I started acupunture today, it wasn't so bad, they also did cupping which is supposed to increase circulation. I think my big problem is stress, so you are right. If nothing else I am hoping to release some tension. (I wish I could find a pill or something that would completely get rid of stress.) I have postponed by seconf IVF for a month to see if this really will work. By the way, I also got my ear stappled for weight loss. All the studies I have read about seem to absolutely see an improvement in success rates.
I will be doing my third IVF in November. I started having acupuncture about a month ago. I also heard it increases your chances. I spoke with my RE last week about it and he said that #1 you have to beleive in this type of medicine for it to do any good. He also said if it does nothing but help you relax, that is good. At first, I did not really like it and was in a hurry to get it over with. Now, I take that time to relax and slow down a bit. I think most of the studies include taking a lot of herbs which I am taking some kind he gave me to help stasis (?).
Another thing I am trying is to find things that relax me. I am trying to get in the best shape before we start our next IVF and I don't tell anybody except you guys..LOL. Good luck!!
I have heard of it as well. But I am being skeptical. Not sure those people are truely want to help or just business. I feel I am just always doubtful.
I have heard acupuncture works....I didn't do it this time and I am on my way for the 2nd time...if it doesn't work I will pay for acupuncture!!! Definitely
Good Luck
