Infertility

new to the board

i was recently diagnosed with pcos and am in the process of going through the various tests (my u/s is scheduled for next friday).

i have been lurking for a little and am inspired by the support you all provide for each other so i just wanted to say hi.

 i am also curious about anyone trying "alternative" routes in addition to the if treatments from their re. i am interested in pursuing acupuncture and possible some herbal remedies as well i just am not even sure how to find someone reputable. any suggestions welcome!

  • welcome and hope you don't have to stay too long!

    A lot of us here have tried acupuncture. You could ask your doctor for recommendations, although often they don't really believe in acu. I live in a smallish town, so I just called the ones in the phone book and interviewed them about their experience with IF patients and chose the one that sounded the most knowledgeable. 

    good luck!

  • Hi and welcome. I see you are in Maplewood, I am in your neck of the woods and i used an accu in Hoboken. She was great and I would recommend her. Page me if you want her info!

    I hope your stay on our board is short and sweet but are happy to offer you any support we can :)
