I went to see an acupuncturist the other day and have 3 more appts, hopefully 4 before my retrieval for our 4th IVF. I have my first ultrasound tomorrow morning to see how my follies are doing. I am desperate for anything to work. Has anyone done this and had success or has heard of anyone having success?
Since we are dealing with Male Inferrtility, I am wondering has anyone had their DH do this and has it helped?

Also, I read that there were studies done in Germany and China on acupuncture done with IVF with ICSI with Male factor infertility and it increased the odds by 20%. Am I just reaching here?

No, there are studies out there to support acupuncture. I go to a clinic that specializes in infertility. All I know is that my sister got pregnant the first IVF after doing 3 months of acupuncture (she was 42) and my friend got pregnant naturally after TTC for 4 years (unexplained infertility). Maybe they would have gotten pregnant anyways, but I want to think I did everything I could. Also, me RE believes in in and did acupuncture before ER and ET.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
