Acupunture

I started going for acupunture a month ago in my attemp to improve my skin and also to complement my IVF treatment. The acupunture needles are very fine compared with those I had to use for IVF. So the slight discomfort of acupunture needles being poked into my skin is bearable.

My skin has been improving (so i think) with a combination of acupunture, essential oils, pure aloe vera (blended myself) and dermalogica facials.

I have been visiting the acupunturist once a week. Since I started Progynova again, I plan to visit her once every 5 days. I have read that acupunture can help thicken the endometrium (womb lining) effectively. I had to take Progynova estrogen pills for 25 days during my last IVF cycle before they can perform the embryo transfer. I hope this round it will be faster. These hormone pills makes me gain weight...

One side effect of acupunture... But of cos it will go away in a few days...
