    Question Picking the "right" Acupuncturist???

    I'm looking into trying Acupuncture to help with TTC... I have been doing lots of googling to try and find the right one in my area but i really have no idea what im looking for
    With TTC does just AP help or do you really need to use TCM too??

    I hope someone can help :P

    TIA

    Word of mouth recommendations are always good, and of course you would want to find someone who has experience in fertility. They will know what you can and can't have based on your situation so don't worry too much about that, as long as they have the experience and if you like them too You can always chat with them over the phone first.

    Thanks Ladies

    I really dont know anyone who has tried acupuncture before (irl)... i found one who specialises in fertility so ill give them a call and see what they say

    Do you think its necessary to have TCM??? I'm not doing IVF or anything like that... i guess i dont want anything to interfere with TTC by taking TCM (if some do that)

    Acupuncture is traditional chinese medicine... if you mean the herbs no you don't have to take them... but most of the fertility clients in BB have them, on or off IVF.
