Hi there. I cannot recommend acupuncture enough. I signed up to 10 sessions a few months ago from a lady that works from home. I was so stressed out from ttc for 4 years that ended up being signed off from work after a little melt down, oops!
Anyway, my first session was fab, the lovely lady was brilliant, we chatted for an hour about what was up, why I was so emotional, stressed etc. So many questions were asked about my lifestyle even asked what my stool samples were like and how my periods were, ie dark blood, big clots etc. oh and every session she would check my tongue.
For fertility she advised me to go once a a week and actually knows my cycle better than me now, ha! Depending on what time of the month it is she does different needles as there as certain locations you should not have done if pregnant (I wish!)
I never feel her insert the needles but once they are in (ankle, shin, knee, wrist , elbow, forehead and sometimes belly) she comes back and manipulates them. The first few sessions I did not feel a lot but I have now become more in tune with how it feels. I get what feels like electric shocks, I can feel energy surges in random parts of the body, dull aching and these odd ripple effects. It is most bizarre!
I only have 2 more sessions and will be a bit sad to finish so will have to start saving for some more. Ok, so I'm not pregnant but the 2 periods i have had during acupuncture have been shorter and lighter. I am so much more relaxed and chilled out, I didn't curl up and cry when my period arrived nor have I cried or been really pissed off on finding out 2 people I know are pregnant.
Because I am now more in tune with my emotions I say acupuncture has been a success. I am still a bit sceptical with the link to fertility but by improving my general well being can only be a good thing right?
Sorry for the long response but thought I would share
Good luck to you all! xx
