Acupuncture helps women have babies

One in three women given acupuncture alongside their IVF treatment successfully conceived, scientists from the University of Southampton discovered. The success rate among those who did not combine fertility treatment with acupuncture was one in five.

The study, which involved more than 2,000 women, discovered that the chance of the embryo implanting successfully, triggering pregnancy, increased if the patient was treated with acupuncture (source: Daily Telegraph).
