Clinical evidence has shown that acupuncture treatment before and during IVF increased blood flow to the uterus and ovaries. In addition, acupuncture regulates fertility hormones which contribute to follicle development and increased implantation.

A recent meta-analysis published in the British Medical Journal found that patients undergoing IVF, acupuncture increased the odds of live birth by 65%. At the same time some other studies showed no benefit of acupuncture during IVF treatment. In the unsuccessful trials, acupuncture was not given according to principle resulting in unsuccessful cases. Therefore it is important in selecting an acupuncturist who has specialized training in reproductive medicine and experience in the field.
