Although it's not often discussed openly, male factor infertility is more common than you might think. One in six couples struggle to conceive, and 40–50% of those cases are due to male factor infertility.
The fear of finding out you have a low sperm count keeps many men from getting tested. And when that news does come, it can feel devastating—especially since Western medicine offers few solutions beyond IUI or IVF.
The good news is that Chinese Medicine has been treating male infertility for thousands of years. Through acupuncture, herbal medicine, and lifestyle support, we can help improve sperm count, motility, morphology, and overall health by increasing blood flow, reducing stress, and encouraging healthy habits. It takes about 90 days for sperm to regenerate—during that time, we’ll work together to address the root causes and support lasting fertility improvements.
Why choose fertility acupuncture? Because our holistic approach to care works. Research shows that acupuncture can increase the chances of clinical pregnancy by up to 65% - an important reminder that this medicine is both powerful and effective.
Your second visit is an educational session where we present your diagnosis, personalized treatment plan, herbal prescription, food therapy, and lifestyle recommendations. This visit is designed to provide all the tools you need to optimize your fertility and support a healthy, full-term pregnancy.
Our treatment approach acknowledges that true health doesn't come from a single source. We'll discuss a well rounded treatment plan that includes food therapy, herbal medicine, lifestyle suggestions and complementary therapies that help to lay the foundation for optimal sperm count and quality.
During your initial visit we will go over a detailed health history. We'll discuss your fertility journey so far, cover any reproductive health concerns you may have, and consider your overall health, including everything from sleep and digestion to diet and lifestyle.
