Accupunture is now recommended on occasion by the specialists I work with for certain side affects of treatment and my Great Grandmother used to swear by accupunture for pain relief.

I had accupunture two days before my daughter was born.  I had been in latent labour for a month and was feeling very wound up through lack of sleep and pain.  I certainly felt much better after the session I had though I think I doub that it initiated labour given that I was so close to due date anyway.

The only caution I would give is to make sure that you mention any alternative medicines / treatment you try to your medical specialists as sometimes they react with the more traditional stuff. It's helpful for them to be aware that you are trying other things so that they can change things if necessary.  Other than that I would say go for it. 

I  acupuncture, it is brilliant!!!  I would definelty give it a try!  Is this your first round of Clomid? 

I studied complementary therapies as part of my massage training, and any good eastern/complementary health practitioner will work with your normal gp/western medicine.

Like all medicinal treatments a full history and disclosure of treatment being undertaken is important so the practitioner can provide you with a treatment that will work for you.

In China - western medicine has worked along side traditional medicine for many years.
