Success after IF

Endo and acupuncture success stories

Has anyone had success getting pregnant with endo and using acupuncture? I had a lap in April and I thought the cycle after would be our lucky cycle. . . Not! AF arrived as she was supposed to. We can?t afford treatment right now because we are oop so I?m hoping to find some success stories with just using acupuncture with an endo diagnosis. Thank you!

Re: Endo and acupuncture success stories

  • I didn't get pregnant naturally but I did do acupuncture for about 3 yrs to keep my endo in check.  I didn't want to take meds to control the endo so I turned to acupuncture and changed to pretty much a vegan diet.  By the time I got married and started trying the RE told me he was shocked how my endo was in control w/o meds.  Prior to the acupuncture, I had to have an emergency lap done to remove two huge endometriomas off my ovaries.  At the time, my doc said if I didn't take the meds I could pretty much plan on being back for another lap w/in a year.   When a u/s showed my cysts were returning and the Doc said I needed meds was when I started acupuncture.

     I know you were looking for a pg story but my point is that acupuncture can help in maintaining the endo which will give you some time to try naturally.  I was dealing w/ AMA, endo and DH's low morph so IVF was inevitable.  I have a couple of friend that had stage IV endo and still got pregnant w/out help.

    It is possible, don't get discouraged.  Stress is the worst thing for endo so do your best to focus on the now and not worry about later.
