PCOS and conceiving with acupuncture
Hello! I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2020, did 4 IUIs in 2021, and had 1 chemical pregnancy in July 2021 in between IUIs. I also have a history of yeast infections and spent most months in 2021 treating those.
At the end of last year, I committed to doing and trying as much as I could to help the growth of my follicles and giving the next few IUIs a chance (hoping to avoid <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a>). A colleague mentioned acupuncture which I started in January 2022.
Now with only 1 full cycle with the acupuncturist (and the help of my fertility doctor monitoring some elevated levels of prolactin), I got my first ever positive pregnancy test TODAY!!! It’s still very early and praying hard for this to be the one!!!
I’m wondering if anyone else has has success with acupuncture? Anyone with PCOS try it? Curious how long you continued acupuncture into pregnancy?
