    I have first hand experience with acupuncture working for fertility. I had secondary infertility that my specialist could not dx and explain why it was happening even after testing. I chose not to seek any tx through the fertility specialists and was resigned and grateful for the one child I had. In 2013 I went to see an acupuncture MD for sinus issues and during her assessment of my tongue and pulse she concluded that I had fertility issues. Important to note I had made no mention of this. To make a long story short, 3 months into tx I became preganant. I continued tx throughout the pregnancy and delivered a healthy boy at 39 weeks. I do not understand how it works, but it does!

      The horror stories I've heard is very disturbing.
      They push so hard $elling women others eggs instead of focusing on actually helping to improve egg quality or whatever issues are going in. It's disgusting the medical system and how they mistreat couples struggling for a child.

I specialize in the "most challenging fertility cases," as well as high risk pregnancies. Your video is beyond valuable to me. All my respect. I'm posting your video in today's newsletter for my patients.

    Thank you so much, I am an acupuncturist currently in training after being treated for several years suffering from all kinds of conditions. It is fantastic that someone like you speaks about the evidence of acupuncture, because so many people believe this is witchcraft. I will specialise in fertility and I am excited for all studies yet to come. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

    There were doing acupuncture 10 years ago in infertility clinics in Europe during the IVF procedure. So if it is a method known for thousands of years than why not trying.

    I struggled for years with shorter but painful periods and acupuncture really helped change the flow of blood & relieve the cramping. I have no doubt this has an impact on fertility too.

      @@danielagentile8049 I stopped but recently went back to it. Again it makes a very obvious difference and improves my life so I’m going to stick with going regularly. But each time my practitioner also prescribes Chinese herbs so I really recommend taking that path also. I wish insurance would cover it too, since we pay enough (!!) and it is a legitimate therapy.

    Wow thanks, no matter if you’re 40 or whatever, after reading Dobbie Nerkstrol's guide, I ended up pleasantly surprised. Within 60 days anyone can get pregnant, feeling the changes in your body the first few weeks. After go’ogling her I understood it's not a miracle kind of thing like the title suggests, but you can bet you'll boost your chances.

      You can always tell the difference between science fans and true scientists by which ones get stuck in their preconceptions and which ones keep an open enough mind to keep up when science catches up to what was once thought unscientific.

    He's again not talking about the body of evidence and is again cherry picking studies that support a view, that's been debunked over and over again. ... Goodbye, prof. Huberman.
