After TTC (trying to concieve) for 6 cycles and discovering I have a LPD (luteal phase defect), I began looking for a solution. Vitex cured my PMS pains and lengthened my LP by 1 day, but I grew impatient. Too scared to try a fertility doctor I did some research and found acupuncture.

My acupuncturist claimed it could take anywhere from 1-3 cycles to see any positive effects and recommended that I go once a week for 4 weeks, then every other week. The needles pricked me, but the pain went away in a second. Took a nap covered in 24 needles, including one between my eyes.

I've gone twice now and discovered something amazing. EWCM (Egg White Cervical Mucus) for the first time!! I get a positive OPK every month on CD14 but never get EWCM, I'm usually dry with very little watery cm after O. Today I got my positive OPK at 6:00pm and BD (baby danced) CD13 and CD14 in the early morning. Fingers crossed that this month is the month!!
