“I was diagnosed with Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) by a fertility specialist. After several cycles of Clomid and one IUI, I conceived my daughter. One year later, my husband and I attempted to conceive again using Assisted Reproductive Therapy. After five failed attempts, we were told the next course of action would have to be IVF. This was not covered by our health insurance and we were not prepared financially to pursue it on our own. In addition, we were uncomfortable with the increased odds for multiple births. During this time, I began to hear of and read about acupuncture as a means to successfully achieve pregnancy. I began my treatment with Andrea and was immediately impressed by her knowledge of acupuncture and its uses to treat infertility. Throughout my treatment, I came to regard her as a kindred spirit who carefully considered my emotional and psychological well being as we traveled this journey together. She recommended that I incorporate Chinese herbal teas and after four months of regular acupuncture treatments, herbal teas and small lifestyle changes, my husband and I conceived our second daughter naturally! Andrea is a highly talented and compassionate health care professional.
