In recent years, acupuncture has been applied to expectant mothers who want to have children with the in vitro fertilization method.
In our country, acupuncture is now used as a supportive treatment in IVF applications.
The contribution of acupuncture has been proven by scientific studies.
Acupuncture ensures that the inner layer of the uterus (endometrium) reaches sufficient thickness, and thus the embryos settle in a stronger uterus after transfer, which increases the chance of pregnancy.
In addition, acupuncture increases the resilience of expectant mothers against stress by secreting natural and side-effect calming substances and pleasant substances (serotonin) in the body and eliminates their worries about pregnancy.
Acupuncture treatment begins before embryo transfer and is continued after transfer.
