Acupuncture for Fertility Support in Croydon

If you're trying to conceive, acupuncture can be a valuable part of your fertility journey. At Centred Health, we've supported many couples through natural conception, IVF, and IUI treatments at our South Croydon clinic.

How Acupuncture Supports Fertility

Traditional Chinese medicine views fertility as a reflection of overall health and balance. Acupuncture treatment aims to:

• Regulate menstrual cycles and improve cycle regularity

• Support healthy hormone balance

• Improve blood flow to the reproductive organs

• Reduce stress and support emotional wellbeing during what can be a challenging time

• Prepare the body for conception and pregnancy

Acupuncture Alongside IVF

Many of our Croydon patients combine acupuncture with IVF treatment. Research suggests that acupuncture around the time of embryo transfer may support IVF success. We work alongside your fertility clinic, coordinating treatment to complement your IVF cycle.

Typical IVF support includes:

• Weekly treatments during the stimulation phase

• Treatment on the day of or around embryo transfer

• Ongoing support during the two-week wait

• Early pregnancy support if conception is successful

What to Expect

Your first appointment includes a comprehensive consultation where we'll discuss your medical history, menstrual cycle, previous treatments, and any test results you've had. This typically takes 60-90 minutes and includes your first acupuncture treatment.

Most fertility patients attend weekly appointments initially, then adjust frequency based on your individual needs and treatment plan. Many patients continue treatment through early pregnancy to support a healthy first trimester.

Male Fertility Support

We also treat male factor fertility issues. Acupuncture can support sperm quality, count, and motility, and is particularly helpful for men experiencing stress related to the conception journey.
