A landmark study published in the medical journal of Fertility and Sterility found that acupuncture dramatically improves the chances of becoming pregnant when used in conjunction with other assisted reproductive techniques.
 
Other studies found the following:
 
   
increased blood flow to the uterus improves the chances of an ovum implanting on the
  uterine wall.
Reducing anxiety, stress and the hormones that are secreted during stressful situations can
  significantly decrease fertility.
Acupuncture regulates menstrual cycles leading to higher chances of pregnancies.
Acupuncture shows a direct positive affect on the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis,
  which plays a major role in fertility.
   
 
There are many more research studies that have been conducted touting the effects of acupuncture on fertility.  Please visit the American Board of Oriental Reproductive Medicine to learn more.
