I have been trying to get pregnant for over 6 months. I have seen my doctor, used ovulation kits and monitors and am also trying acupuncture. I just realized last week that my husband does not wake up with erection in the morning anymore, which i think is a sign of low testosterone. Could my husband's fertility be low?

I am looking into a place in O-Side CA that does
Acupuncture, Massage, Aroma Therapy, and Chinese Herbal Medicine.
I am looking into Acupuncture to help with my fertility. I am also going to try what's called
"Fertility Massage"
It's pretty simple, and it's supposed to help unblock the Fallopian tubes, tone the uterus, and detox everything.

So I was wondering if anyone has gotten pregnant using these methods.
I won't be able to do anything until October because I am going to be in Maui for a month, and I do not want to have a miscarriage on a plane.

Thank you all.
I know I ask a LOT of questions, but I see new things all the time, and get curious if anyone has tried them.

Has anybody gotten acupuncture done for fertility/infertility issues or to regulate your monthly cycles and ovulation? If so did it work for you and how long did it take before you noticed any results or changes? Success stories would also be wonderful to hear! Please share you experiences with me or if you know someones story that you can tell, it would be very helpful to me in my journey to conceive and being patient!

im 24, perfectly healthy. male factor issues and using donor sperm with ICSI. i will begin Lupron on the 13th this month, stopping BCP (ocella) on the 18th and continue with the Lupron until the 25th when i decrease my dose to 5units instead of 10 and begin my gonadotropins (bravelle 2amps/menopur 1amp) my baseline ultra snd is the 22nd, and ive been having fertility acupuncture done once a week for about a month now. i eat well and do fertility yoga too....positive thinking and whatnot...i dont think theres anything more i cld possibly do to increase my chances of this working the first time?! but if you know of any feel free to chime in!!! oh! and i have been on a prenatal for months! we started trying in Dec 09' with IUI's which i rly thought was our ticket to parenthood, weeell 7 IUI's pills, shots later...still nothing. Ive had an HSG done that came bk all good. had my CD3 blood work done to chk E2 levels which also came back "great" says my RE. i guess im just nervous, impatient and everything in between!!! trying my best to stay calm and positive!! anybody else doing IVF this month? i cant wait to get this show on the road!!!

Me and my DH have been ttc for 15 months. Its so stressful, we went to a fertility doctor for 3 months, and with all the expense decided to try naturally. I have heard of people conceiving from acupuncture> What is that exactly. I have never heard of it until now.

My husband and I have been trying to conceive (ttc) for about nine months now with the use of fertility treatments. Unfortunately, my lining seems to be the major issue and nothing has worked substantially enough to result in a positive pregnancy test. I've read that acupuncture might help, but have never actually heard about it working for anyone I know. Any positive (or negative) experiences out there?

I’m a 29yr old female and diagnosed with bilateral sacroiliitis... The pain is constant and unmanageable for me. I have been continuously to a chiropractor, physiotherapist who practises acupuncture. I have also been to an osteopath. I have been on anti inflammatories and pain killers for months. I don’t sleep for more than an hour at a time, because as soon as I move the pain is enough to wake me. I use heat creams, heat packs, warm baths, ice packs, sleeping with pillows between my knees, I don’t sit for long periods, no lifting, minimal bending, I had a week of rest off work, but to not much relief. I bent over and emptied the dishwasher and almost immediately pain returned. I had some relief from the acupuncture as it releases the tense muscles I have in my lower back, buttocks and thighs, but the pain returns or the acupuncture is 'undone' with 24 hours or so... I am the process of trying to get an appointment to have CT guided cortisone injection, which I am not that keen on, (I have heard stories about infertility, its lack of effectiveness, weight gain... INFO ANYONE???) I may have to wait 3 months, but I don’t know where to turn. I’m too young for this and it is affecting my entire life. I’ve become a burden/bother to my family, boyfriend, lost friends because after I struggle through a day at work I cannot manage to socialise without extreme determination and self convincing that I can which is exhausting in itself. I can’t manage to spend a few hours walking around a shopping centre or sit down in the movie theatre comfortably. Play with my puppy, do my housework etc. I cannot perform my job properly (I manage a liquor store, a lot of heavy lifting, moving, bending, kneeling which lead to my sacroiliitis). I seem to be rambling. It is so hard to get anybody to understand the pain I’m in 99% of the time; I have very little time without it... I am wondering if anybody out there has found anything to relieve their pain and discomfort. Even the tiniest 'tricks' they use for relief. Or what treatment has worked the best? I really would like to discuss this further and hear other experiences.
My true hope is that I can get back to full living/working/functioning capacity, and get back to being the fit and happy fun loving person I was 6 months ago.
I’m sorry for rattling on, but I have needed to let this all out (I feel better just doing so!)
Thanks Brie, Australia
Thanks for listening/reading... Hope to hear from someone....

My husband and I have been trying to conceive for 7 months now and my periods were always irregular and painful when I did get them! My breasts were sore and I would get bad cramps and a week of spotting before my period was due. Also my ovulation was off...WAY off. So I have been seeing an acupuncturist for 2 months now to try and help regulate my periods and for fertility and I think It's working, although she said to give it atleast 3 months. My question is, Has anyone else experienced similar issues and gotten acupuncture, and what was the outcome? Also when and if you did get pregnant, did the acupuncture help alot with the symptoms that come along with pregnancy?
I have seen changes, It really is amazing how soon you see changes even though they tell you to be patient and give it 3 months! There is a good chance I may be pregnant as we speak although I am giving it another week before I test! I really do HIGHLY recommend acupuncture for infertility!
