Research
Recent studies indicate that doing acupuncture about 30 minutes before and after In-Vitro Fertilization can increase the chance that the embryo will be implanted successfully and reduce the chance of miscarriage.

Acupuncture can help to improve circulation to the ovaries.
Acupuncture can also improve circulation to the uterus, which increases the chance that the uterine lining will be thick enough for implantation and receptive after embryo transfer.
