Fertility Support
At Red Peony Acupuncture, we offer a variety of treatment programs to enhance fertility. Whether you are trying to conceive naturally or with help of assisted reproductive technology, we are here to support you in every phase of your journey.

- Regulate the hormones to produce larger number of follicles
- Reduce stress
- Strengthen the immune system
- Decrease chance of miscarriage
- Reduce side effects of IVF medications
- Decrease uterine contractility post IVF embryo transfer
- Improve sperm count, motility and morphology
Acupuncture Before and After IVF Transfer
Research has shown that acupuncture treatment before and after IVF transfer significantly increases chances of conception. Our acupuncture treatment protocols are based on those used in a number of clinical trials. We currently preform on site visits at the Oregon Reproductive Medicine and OHSU.
