Hey ladies! Has anyone had any positive experiences from acupuncture and regulating their cycles? I've just started my acupuncture journey!

@Chloesen90
Hi! I am (2.5 months into treatment) and I'd highly recommend it (I was sceptical it would do anything). Pre acupuncture my cycle was anywhere between 34 - 40 days. Within a week of treatment I'd ovulated on day 15 and my last two cycles have been 29/30 days! Hope it works for you.

It worked for me! The month after I started acupuncture I fell pregnant, I hadn't ovulated for 4 months prior and then bob's your uncle.

It's the only thing I did differently in the run up, apart from giving the 'socks in bed' thing a try!

@staystill @thetuckshop thank you so much! Got my second appointment tomorrow and I'm doing it weekly!

@chloesen90 oh my gosh that's amazing, huge congratulations!! Was you having irregular cycles/been ttc for long?

Hi Ladies

It's so good to come across this post! I've booked in for my first session in a couple of weeks. I have long cycles so really hoping it helps.

Is there a particular time of the month you'd recommend? Or does it have to be a few times a month?

Chloesen90 · 12/10/2021 13:40

@Snoopysnores thanks! I'd been trying for 5 months and had irregular and long cycles since I had my implant taken out a year ago. I conceived after a 45 day cycle!

@SophieJ21 I go weekly and I'm going to carry on through pregnancy because with long cycles you're more likely to miscarry :(

@Chloesen90 just saw your reply. Huge congratulations, that's amazing!!!

Did you have the 45 day cycle and conceive on the next one then?

Started Acupuncture few weeks ago. Don’t know what to think of it, but going there with an open mind,
