Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs can increase a couple’s chance of becoming pregnant says local acupuncturist Dr. Chris Hogan.

Early results of an ongoing study by Reproductive Medicine and Fertility Centre, have announced an astonishing 15 percent increase in pregnancies, with a 23 percent rise in actual births for IVF patients treated with acupuncture.

The same Centre also found that miscarriages and stillbirths were at 20% with IVF, but combined with acupuncture treatments, there was only an 8% rate of having a miscarriage.
