Women's Health & Fertility

Overview

At Acupuncture Works in Atlanta, I provide fertility acupuncture in Atlanta using Traditional Japanese-style Meridian Therapy, supporting natural conception, IVF, egg or embryo freezing, pregnancy, and menstrual cycle concerns. Treatments are based on palpation, clinical assessment, and real-time findings to address discomfort, regulation, and overall function across the reproductive lifespan, from puberty through post-menopause.

Fertility & IVF Support

I provide acupuncture for individuals and couples preparing for pregnancy through IVF cycles, medicated or monitored cycles, timed intercourse cycles, and natural conception. Treatment focuses on circulation, regulation, and reducing sources of discomfort or disruption that can affect reproductive function.

For IVF, treatment is commonly done before and during stimulation, before and after retrieval, and before and after transfer.

Egg or Embryo Freezing

I provide acupuncture for egg or embryo freezing cycles, focusing on blood circulation and regulating the body’s response during stimulation and after retrieval.

Pregnancy Support

I provide acupuncture throughout all trimesters of pregnancy. Treatment can address nausea, fatigue, sleep changes, musculoskeletal discomfort, emotional strain, and other pregnancy-related changes. In the final trimester, acupuncture can be used to prepare the body for birth.

Cycle-Related Care

I provide acupuncture for menstrual and cycle-related concerns, including painful periods, irregular cycles, mid-cycle discomfort, PMS symptoms, and changes associated with discontinuing hormonal birth control. Treatment focuses on pattern regulation and reducing discomfort over time.

Perimenopause & Menopause

I provide acupuncture for symptoms that arise during perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause. Treatment can address hot flashes, sleep disturbances, mood shifts, joint discomfort, and brain fog that may occur during this transition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can acupuncture support IVF or medicated fertility cycles?

Yes. I frequently treat patients undergoing IVF, IUI, egg or embryo freezing, and other medicated cycles. Treatment focuses on supporting regulation, circulation, stress reduction, and symptom management throughout the process. Acupuncture can be provided alongside your reproductive endocrinologist’s protocol.

How soon should I begin fertility acupuncture?

Many patients begin treatment 1–3 months before trying to conceive or starting a cycle, but you can begin at any time. Treatment schedules are individualized based on your symptoms, cycle characteristics, and clinical findings.

Do I need a diagnosis before coming in?

Yes. Acupuncture can support comfort, stress management, sleep, digestion, and musculoskeletal changes during pregnancy. Treatment is adapted at every stage to ensure safety and to respond to your evolving symptoms.

Does acupuncture help with menstrual pain or irregular cycles?

Many patients seek treatment for painful periods, irregular cycles, PMS symptoms, or perimenopausal changes. Treatment focuses on improving regulation, circulation, and overall cycle-related balance.

Is treatment painful or uncomfortable?

I use gentle Japanese-style techniques designed to be comfortable. Most patients find treatments relaxing, and many experience noticeable changes during or shortly after the session.

Can acupuncture help if stress or burnout is affecting my cycle or fertility journey?

Stress patterns influence the body in many ways, and acupuncture can help support regulation and reduce tension. Treatment is tailored to both your physical and emotional presentation, within a clinical scope.

How often should I get treated?

Frequency varies by situation. Fertility patients often begin with weekly sessions and adjust based on symptoms, cycle phase, and how your body responds to treatment.
