Fertility Acupuncture FAQs
Do I need to be undergoing fertility treatment?
No. Lisa welcomes people trying to conceive without assisted treatment, as well as those preparing for or undergoing IVF or IUI.
Can I receive acupuncture alongside IVF or IUI?
Acupuncture can be provided as complementary care. Tell Lisa about your medications, upcoming procedures, and your fertility clinic’s recommendations, and let your medical team know you’re receiving acupuncture.
When should I begin acupuncture?
You can contact Lisa at any stage. There is no required lead-in period. Your care plan will reflect your circumstances, preferences, and any upcoming medical treatment.
Can acupuncture improve my chances of pregnancy?
Research on acupuncture and fertility outcomes is mixed, and improved pregnancy or live birth rates have not been reliably established. Care here focuses on supporting your well-being during your fertility journey.
What happens during my first visit?
We’ll discuss your health history, fertility journey, and goals before an acupuncture treatment tailored to your needs. You’ll have time to ask questions and discuss a follow-up plan.
How often will I need appointments?
Frequency is individualized. Lisa will discuss options with you, taking your needs, availability, and budget into account.
What if I become pregnant?
Let Lisa know about a positive pregnancy test or possible pregnancy so your care can be reassessed.
Can I talk with Lisa before booking treatment?
Yes. You’re welcome to book a free 15-minute consultation to ask questions and learn about the practice.
