No we have a system and 1/ mos ins not enough
No. I recommend 2-3 sessions per week for 4-8 weeks (in a row), combined with herbs. These modalities together should be able to help you out with fertility.
Generally fertility treaments are recommended to be administered at least once a week. Depending on your cycle the protocol changes every week-2 weeks. For a full effect please try to see your practitioner once a week.
it is usually recommended at least two times a week.
Hello!
That's a good question. Typically, acupuncture for fertility works best with treatment twice a week for 8-12 weeks. This way, we can work through several menstrual cycles, focusing on the uterus and ovaries as well as have you follow through with dietary recommendations.
That being said, many people find themselves in situations where they cannot go in for treatment that frequently. I recommend you discuss this with your acupuncturist and come up with a plan in which you can continue to do homework, such as doing acupressure with magnets and seeds in between treatments.
As always, feel free to contact me directly if you have more questions.

Once a month is a bit sparse, if you just want a treatment right at
ovulation to help with that because you are already quite regular, that
could be enough. Generally I like to see people At the beginning of menses,
the end and ovulation to see how the body is behaving through the luteal
and follicular phases. Good luck on getting pregnant!

It depends, usually when working with fertility patients come to the office once a week
We recommend once a week for fertility treatments
It depends upon the patient, but most likely it should be at least once a week.
Not enough.
I would recommend weekly or by-weekly sessions for increasing chances of fertility, and working with your OBG-YN.
Absolutely not. I see my patients twice a week for months to help with fertility.
I don't work a lot with fertility, but generally speaking acupuncture has a dose dependency. To a point, more treatment often provides superior results. I do work a lot with pain management and for those patients a typical treatment frequency is once per week for several weeks and then we work our way down to some maintenance level which might be monthly (or even less frequent).
If you've been using acupuncture for a while, then maybe once per month is enough. If you're just starting out, once a month often doesn't get you out of the gate with your issue - you're essentially starting all over again each time you come in. Most of the fertility specialists I know recommend weekly treatment for 2-3 months (so something like 8-12 treatments).

No, acupuncture once a month is not enough for fertility, you need to try two sessions a week to see what is the result, try two weeks.
