When is the best time in a cycle to see an acupuncturist?

When is the best time in a cycle to see an acupuncturist?

A: All the studies suggest that really it’s before and after egg collection for IVF and as far as just general acupuncture, we do sometimes recommend it for certain patients depending on what it is that we need. Acupuncture really depends on you, whether you enjoy it, whether you like it.

For our patients, we don’t necessarily say you have to have acupuncture. In some instances, we do, but there’s not a lot of research. Capping again it can be useful but it’s not something that we use necessarily as a foundation aspect of our treatment, so I’m probably not the best person to ask that question. It’s something that I do use from time to time for our patients, however it’s not a basis for our program.
