Acupuncture For Fertility: How Circulation Affects Fertility
A big part of acupuncture for fertility is considering how we can improve blood flow. Good health relies on sufficient blood flow to tissues to bring oxygen and nutrients to our cells as well as clear away waste. Our fertility and reproductive organs are no exception.
Good circulation to the reproductive organs is vital for healthy function and in particular to the endometrium where implantation occurs. This is influenced by reproductive hormones and the autonomic nervous system - in a fight or flight response, circulation goes more towards the periphery and muscles to ready for action, versus the rest and digest state where circulation moves more towards the internal organs. So it’s important to regulate the nervous system and reduce stress to improve circulation and aid fertility.
Traditional Chinese medicine thought focuses on promoting the healthy smooth flow of circulation throughout the body. If the circulation is too little or too much to an area, this can cause issues. Acupuncture is used traditionally to help regulate blood flow within the body and we have points that have been traditionally indicated to help support fertility.
