Fertility acupuncture, frequently combined with herbal medicine, has been used for centuries to treat infertility. It can help by improving many conditions and serving to increase your chances of conception. We often recommend that both partners get a consultation with us. In about 40% of infertile couples the man is the sole cause or a contributing cause of the inability to conceive.
