Fertility Acupuncture Around DC area

I started estrogen priming this week for IVF. I would really like to do acupuncture to increase my chances. Does anyone know of a reputable place to go. By the way, I’m 42 and this is my 1st IVF. One failed IUI. Thx!

Kerri Westhauser and Earley wellness group. I was a patient of Kerri’s and when she was out of town, she referred me to Earley. Both are great and well versed in IVF. I did it for my second round of IVF which resulted in my now 2.5 yr old.

Lisa Eaves with Heal from Within. (I actually left Kerri Westhauser to work with her)

Lisa also runs an infertility support group that many of her patients attend.

I’ll second Lisa Eaves at Heal from Within for acupuncture. She’s lovely, supportive, and always willing to bend an ear and, while it may be difficult to measure acupuncture and it’s relation to infertility success, I hope it’s working! I don’t attend the support group because of scheduling but many people have positive posts about it on this board.

A thousand times yes to Lisa. I went to her after acupuncture at another place and got pregnant!

I have a two year old from IVF and Kerri was just wonderful throughout the process. I was 40-41 at the time.

For anyone in the Baltimore area, I can't recommend Angie Becker with Charm City Healing enough!

I have seen both Lisa Well and Deb Earley and liked them both fine but am actually now seeing Shu Fan because his office is closest to work and takes lots of different insurance. It's def less frills than the others but he is very knowledgeable (knew a lot both re fertility as well random things like a nerve issue I have) and is the only one that does cupping along with acupuncture and treats you on both front and back.

Shu Fan - Chinese Medicine for Nature Fertility and Women’s Wellness,

To achieve the best result within a reasonable short period of ttc time, Shu Fan customize his treatment plan for each patient. With careful diagnosis and considerations of different stages within menstrual cycles, IVF/IUI procedures, and pregnancy weeks, his will customize locations and stimulation level for acupuncture points and mix by himself herbs which have the best quality and enough qualities for the optimal results.

Dr. Gao near GWU. Amazing and has actually gotten a number of difficult cases pregnant with acupuncture alone. Myself included after having to do two Ivf cycles for my first. https://www.wellness.com/dir/1452410/acupuncturist/dc/washington/jing-yun-gao#referrer
