Acupuncture is incredibly effective for individuals or couples trying to conceive naturally. Whether you’re coming off birth control, experiencing irregular cycles, or managing conditions like PCOS, acupuncture can help bring your body back into balance.

Benefits for natural fertility:

🧠 Regulates the menstrual cycle and supports ovulation by influencing the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian (HPO) axis.

💆🏻‍♀️ Balances mood and reduces stress, which can otherwise interfere with ovulation and luteal phase hormone production.

🔴 Supports uterine lining development and cervical mucus quality.

🍆 Improves s***m parameters when both partners are treated.

This perfect heart melter was born last week to a dear patient. He is the cutest little dude, I can’t handle it!

I treated his mom before conception and all the way through until a few days before he arrived, and I can’t wait for the day I can squeeze those smooshy cheeks.

I’m so thrilled for this mama and dad as they embark on this new journey into parenthood. Thank you for letting me be part of this beautiful story.

It might take years, it might take a day, but whatever is meant to be, will always find a way. ✨🌟

Sometimes the magic happens in between retrieval or FET cycles. Can a patient naturally conceive between IVF cycles? Anything is possible! It’s happened dozens of times in my career, and 3 times in the last 2 weeks.

🌱 Shifting Expectations in IVF: Fresh vs. Frozen Embryo Transfers 🌱

One of the biggest misconceptions about IVF is the timing of embryo transfers. Many people assume that embryos are transferred right after egg retrieval and fertilization, but in reality, most transfers now happen during Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) cycles. This means the transfer could occur weeks, months, or even years after the initial egg retrieval! ⏳

Why the shift from fresh to frozen transfers? It comes down to advancements in technology and improved success rates:

✨ Cryopreservation Advancements: Thanks to modern techniques like vitrification, embryos can be frozen without compromising their quality. This technology has revolutionized fertility treatment, allowing embryos to be stored safely for future use.

✨ Higher Success Rates: Studies consistently show that FET cycles often result in better implantation, pregnancy, and live birth rates compared to fresh transfers. By allowing the body to recover fully after egg retrieval, we create an optimal environment for implantation.
This is why we’ve seen such a significant shift in IVF practices over the past decade—frozen transfers have become the gold standard for many patients, providing flexibility, higher chances of success, and peace of mind. 💕

At Bloom Acupuncture & Fertility, we work closely with patients to prepare for FET cycles, ensuring their body is in the best possible state for transfer and pregnancy success. ❤️

GLP-1 agonists are big news right now, and there is undoubtedly a strong link to reproductive health. Many fertility issues we see are connected to insulin resistance. Since GLP-1 regulates blood sugar and improves insulin sensitivity, its activity can be helpful in addressing hormone imbalances, egg quality, and improve menstrual and ovulatory regularity.

Fortunately there are natural strategies and supplements that can help boost GLP-1 activity and improve fertility outcomes, while also addressing root causes like diet, lifestyle habits, and insulin resistance.

We offer online functional fertility appointments to support patients everywhere! We create personalized treatment plans to address any fertility concerns, including insulin resistance and hormone imbalances.
