"Several months of trying to conceive passed but no joy....frustration set in, stress levels rose. I was finding it difficult to cope."
You don't need us to tell you how difficult infertility can be. We are so used to being in control of our bodies and having them do exactly what we ask them to do. When a seemingly simple process becomes a struggle, a certain amount of frustration and upset it natural.
Maybe you've been diagnosed with polycystic ovaries or endometriosis. Maybe the doctors can't find a reason you're not getting pregnant. You might have tried IVF and it hasn't worked, or maybe you're just starting to try for a baby and you want to maximise your chances.
Welcome
We are British Acupuncture Council members, Michael Arnold and Maire Weaver.
We both have 11 years experience in Five Element Acupuncture and have both completed 3 years of full time training. We've worked with many couples in many different circumstances who are trying to conceive. In many cases we've seen successes where the couples had all but given up hope. The one thing we can say for sure is that you're almost certainly putting a lot of pressure on yourself.
This is a completely normal and human trait. When something we really want doesn't happen we look for a reason or someone to blame. Often that someone is us. You may have all kinds of stories going round in your head. "If only I hadn't left it so late.", "Maybe I should have looked after my health better.", "The stress of my work is probably not helping. Why did I let it get like this?".
It Doesn't Have to be Like This!
It is easy to let fertility take over your life, often the more you think about it the worse you feel. Relationships can become strained by the monthly pressure of the "fertility window", as the months go by it becomes a struggle and the joy starts to seep out of life.
In fact this situation is often a major cause of infertility problems. So many times I've seen couples in this situation, who with the help of acupuncture finally let themselves relax, get on with enjoying their lives and almost forget they are trying for a baby. Then magically "it" happens.

What people are saying...
"I was diagnosed with a low ovarian reserve, which explained the difficulties experienced in conceiving. I was prescribed Clomid, a drug used to help stimulate egg production, this however created more unwanted side effects for me as opposed to helping me.
Acupuncture helped me keep calm and less frustrated. I stopped taking Clomid as it was having too many negative effects on my health, and let the acupuncture take its cause. I consider myself very lucky to have conceived after 3 months of acupuncture! I have a wonderful son who is now 3 years old, a truly amazing gift!"
