I've had it done maybe 6 times and will have it done again just before i try as i've heard many times it can help even if it's only 1 time!
My sister fell first attempt and she also recommended it to 2 of her friends who had problems for 12 months conceiving and they both got pregnant.
Coincidence maybe but i'll be giving it a go....can't hurt

The HT crew SWEARS by it and it really does seem to help with fertility. If you can afford it, it cannot hurt and may help!

I did about 5 sessions of it, but it was too expensive for my budget.....she wanted $90 a week, for a 20 minute session and then the chinese herbs. She gave me some for the blood and then some for relaxation, but we got a couple more bfns during that time, and I felt guilty spending nearly $400 a month on that. BUT, if you can afford it, I would say go for it! Also, be sure that you are seeing an accupuncturist who specializes in fertility accupuncture if you can. I know a lot of ladies that had success, but to be honest, I wonder if the placebo effect of just having some time to yourself to rest and meditate and be still is what helps so much.....

And I want to add that I am not a huge fan of needles, and I did NOT like the needles here....sometimes they would hurt, like she was hitting a nerve or something, and she said it was hitting a "block" and the pain was my chi getting all unblocked, but it sort of wigged me out. Just sayin'.....

Wow that was expensive, i'd feel a little guilty spending that amount of money too so i don't blame you. Every now and then a needle will sting a bit but that happens if it's in a hair folical so my lady usually takes them straight out and tries again. I think there has been some scientific research about it saying it does increase your chances of falling pregnant so yeah i'll have 1 session a day or 2 before i try.

I think if you want to try it, go for it. It is proven by research to increase the success of HT cycles so I think it couldn't hurt for traditional swayers. I think acupuncture, acupressure, EFT, etc. are all on to something because the results they get can be documented
