Their next evening is planned for Wednesday 24th August.

The evening will open with a tour of the clinic at 1830hrs. This will be followed by a short introduction given by their Consultant Fertility Specialist.

Dr. Fabian Ward, Snr. Embryologist will also speak about what happens within the Clane Fertility Clinic laboratory.

Their Nurse Specialist, Ms Martina Kelly, will speak with regard to the types of treatment available at the Clane Fertility Clinic.

They will have an information  package for all attending which will include a DVD and related information brochures.

Here at Fertility Edge Acupuncture, we regularly provide the Pre and Post Embryo Transfer Acupuncture Treatment Protocol for many who attend Clane Fertility Clinic. Listed below are some of the landmark fertility acupuncture studies whose protocols showed improved success rates for those undergoing ART treatments such as IVF:

Acupuncture on the day of embryo transfer significantly improves the reproductive outcome of IVF, compared with no acupuncture (Westergaard L et al, Fertility and Sterility April 2006 Vol 85, pp. 1341-1346 http://www.fertstert.org/article/S0015-0282%2806%2900212-3/abstract ).

Acupuncture seems to be a useful tool for improving pregnancy rate after ART. (Paulus W et al, Fertility and Sterility April 2002 Vol 77, pp. 721-724 http://www.fertstert.org/article/S0015-0282%2801%2903273-3/abstract ).

Luteal-phase acupuncture has a positive effect on the outcome of IVF/ICSI (Dieterle S et al, Fertility and Sterility May 2006 Vol 85, pp. 1347-1351 http://www.fertstert.org/article/S0015-0282%2806%2900213-5/abstract ).
