If being on clomid and having acupuncture  makes you feel good and positive then I think it is worth it]]>

When I tried a naturopath years ago they wanted me off all western medicine so I just assumed it would be the same for an acupuncturist. I think I'll give it a go then!]]>

The thing is I know I won't be able to do both at once because neither will be happy about the other so I need to put all my eggs in the one basket IYKWIM and i've always been more trusting of westernized medicine in terms of a positive outcome.]]>

It's helpful for them to be aware that you are trying other things so that they can change things if necessary.&nbsp; Other than that I would say go for it.&nbsp; </P>]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/member_profile.asp?PF=19544">GuestGuest</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> 35522<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> 31 August 2010 at 2:43pm<br /><br />Just been wondering about this lately as I have started the fertility drug clomiphene to help with TTC and I have never been one for taking drugs if I can help it. Plus my DH has just been treated successfully for both insomnia and back pain via Chinese acupuncture. I have been a bit sceptical about acupuncture in the past before this but the acupuncturist that DH has been seeing also specialises in fertility so I'm wondering if it is worth a go.<br /><br />What are your experiences with both eastern and western medicine and have you found that one worked when the other didn't? I am obviously quite interested in the fertility side, but hearing about your treatment for all sorts of things would be great! <img border="0" src="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0"> ]]>
