TCM Fertility Acupuncture to Support Egg Quality & Uterine Receptivity
Fertility‑focused Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) care—acupuncture, personalized guidance, and (when appropriate) herbal recommendations—to support ovarian health, hormone balance, uterine lining, and a calmer nervous system. Designed to complement trying naturally, IVF, and IUI.
- Egg quality & ovarian health support (8–12 week foundation)
- Uterine lining & receptivity support
- IVF/IUI complementary care + stress & sleep support
The 90‑Day Fertility Foundation
A clear, structured plan designed to support egg quality factors, ovarian health, uterine lining & receptivity, and a regulated nervous system—especially helpful before IVF/IUI or transfer.
Egg Quality & Ovarian Health
When time allows, we build an 8–12 week foundation to support the conditions linked to follicle development: sleep, stress physiology, digestion, and pelvic circulation.
- Low AMH / DOR / past poor response support
- Pelvic circulation + “recovery capacity”
- Stress/sleep routines that stick
Uterine Lining & Receptivity
Acupuncture is commonly used to support uterine blood flow and reduce pelvic tension. The aim is a calmer, better‑perfused environment—especially when lining/receptivity is a concern.
- Thin lining / lining variability support
- Transfer preparation support
- Reduce uterine tension & stress load
Nervous System & Hormone Rhythm
Fertility is taxing. We prioritize nervous system regulation (“rest & digest”), sleep quality, and digestion—often the difference between feeling stuck and feeling supported.
- High stress / insomnia during IVF
- Digestion support (often overlooked)
- Support ovulation + luteal stability goals
Weeks 1–4
Baseline support: sleep, digestion, stress regulation, pelvic circulation.
Weeks 5–8
Build momentum: consistent treatments + home plan, tailored to your goals.
Weeks 9–12
Consolidate: support resilience leading into IVF/IUI or transfer preparation.
Complementary care—results vary and no specific pregnancy outcomes can be guaranteed. We focus on supporting the conditions and your overall resilience.

- Recent labs/clinic notes (e.g., AMH, AFC, lining measurements)
Don’t have everything? No problem—start with what you have.
- Session timing around key dates (when scheduling allows)
- Targeted support: lining/receptivity, ovarian response factors, stress & sleep
- Clear next steps + a simple home plan you can actually follow

What to Expect at Your First TCM Fertility Visit
Clear, calm, and personalized. The goal is to understand your story and create a plan you feel confident about.

Your personalized plan
You’ll get a clear plan that may include acupuncture, lifestyle guidance, and (when appropriate) herbal recommendations—always complementary to your medical care.

Support Egg Quality, Ovarian Health & Uterine Lining
We focus on improving the conditions your body needs—circulation, hormone rhythm, stress resilience, sleep and digestion—so your fertility plan has stronger support.
Egg Quality & Ovarian Health
Many patients start with an 8–12 week foundation. Treatments aim to support healthy follicle development, pelvic circulation, and stress regulation—key factors often linked to egg quality and ovarian response.
Uterine Lining & Receptivity
Acupuncture is used to support uterine blood flow and reduce pelvic tension. The goal is to support a calmer, better‑perfused environment—especially helpful when lining thickness or receptivity is a concern.
Hormones, Ovulation & Luteal Support
We tailor care to your symptoms and goals to support hormone rhythm, ovulation quality, and luteal stability—plus sleep and digestion (often overlooked, but foundational in TCM).
Have IVF/IUI dates or lining/egg quality concerns? Call and we’ll help you choose timing that complements your clinic plan.
For People Serious About Improving the Conditions for Conception
Whether you’re trying naturally or going through IVF/IUI, TCM fertility care can be supportive when the focus is egg quality, ovarian health, uterine lining, and nervous system regulation.
- Concerned about egg quality, low AMH, DOR, or past poor response
- Thin lining / uterine receptivity concerns or preparing for transfer
- PCOS, endometriosis, irregular cycles, painful periods, PMS
- Preparing for IVF (stimulation, retrieval, transfer) or planning IUI
- High stress, poor sleep, digestion issues during the fertility journey
If you’re unsure which appointment to book, call and we’ll guide you—especially if you have upcoming IVF/IUI dates.
Problem‑Focused Support for Common Fertility Roadblocks
Fertility‑focused acupuncture and TCM support to help you optimize key conditions—egg quality factors, ovarian response, uterine lining/receptivity—and stay steady through the process.
Thin Lining & Receptivity Concerns
Focus on pelvic/uterine circulation and reducing uterine tension—often used as supportive care leading up to transfer or IUI timing.
Low AMH / DOR / Past Poor Response
When time allows, we build an 8–12 week foundation focused on sleep, stress physiology, digestion, and pelvic blood flow—supporting factors often associated with egg quality and ovarian response.
Transfer Week Anxiety & Sleep Disruption
Support for nervous system regulation, sleep routines, and calming strategies—so you’re not white‑knuckling through your most important week.
- Foundation: weekly for 6–12 visits when possible (egg quality / lining goals)
- During stimulation: 1×/week + symptom support (sleep, bloating, tension)
- Transfer/IUI week: sessions around key dates when scheduling allows
