Chinese Medicine For Fertility

Conceive with Confidence & Balance

Fertility is not just about a single organ; it is a reflection of your overall vitality. At Kellie Krasovec Acupuncture, we view fertility as a pillar of health tied to the “Kidney Essence” (Jing)—the root of life and reproduction.

We provide comprehensive support for both men and women. Whether you are trying to conceive naturally, are preparing for IVF/IUI, or have a history of recurrent miscarriage, our goal is to create the optimal biological environment for a healthy pregnancy. Kellie is a member of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) and brings over 20 years of experience to help navigate complex fertility journeys.

A Partnership in Your Reproductive Journey

We recommend beginning treatment 3–4 months prior to trying to conceive or starting an IVF cycle. This window allows us to affect the quality of the egg and sperm as they develop.

  • Cycle Tracking: We may track your Basal Body Temperature (BBT) to pinpoint ovulation and identify hormonal imbalances (like Luteal Phase Defect).
  • Stress Reduction: Fertility struggles are stressful. Our treatments actively lower cortisol levels, which helps balance reproductive hormones.
  • Integrated Care: We are happy to work alongside your OB-GYN or Reproductive Endocrinologist. We understand the timing of Western procedures and tailor our treatments to support each phase of your cycle.

Benefits of Fertility Acupuncture

Optimizing Reproductive Health

For Women:

  • Regulates the Cycle: Stabilizes irregular periods and promotes efficient ovulation.
  • Uterine Health: Increases blood flow to the uterus to thicken the endometrial lining, aiding implantation.
  • Hormonal Balance: Regulates FSH, LH, and Estrogen levels.
  • IVF Support: Reduces uterine contractions after embryo transfer and enhances success rates.

 

For Men:

  • Sperm Quality: Research shows acupuncture can improve sperm count, motility (movement), and morphology (shape).
  • Male Factor Infertility: Addresses issues that contribute to up to 47% of infertility cases.

History & How It Works

How It Works:


Think of fertility like a garden. If the soil is depleted, too dry, or too cold, seeds cannot grow. Western medicine often focuses on the seed (the egg/embryo). Chinese Medicine focuses on the soil (the body).

 

By balancing the Kidney Meridian (which governs reproduction) and the Liver Meridian (which ensures the smooth flow of blood and hormones), we create a warm, nutrient-rich environment. We use acupuncture and specific herbal formulas to nourish “Jing” (Essence) and blood. This holistic approach not only helps you get pregnant but supports a healthier pregnancy and postpartum recovery.

Conditions We Treat

We support couples at every stage of their journey, including those with complex diagnoses:

 

  • Unexplained Infertility: When tests come back “normal” but conception isn’t happening.
  • Advanced Maternal Age: Supporting egg quality and ovarian reserve in women over 35.
  • Structural & Hormonal Issues: PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome), Endometriosis, Uterine Fibroids, and blocked tubes.
  • Recurrent Miscarriage: Strengthening the body to hold the pregnancy to term.
  • IVF/IUI Patients: Pre- and post-transfer treatments to improve outcomes and reduce side effects of fertility drugs.
