Fertility and Reproductive Health Support
Fertility and Reproductive Health Support in Williamstown
At Three Lanterns, fertility and reproductive health have long been central to our practice. Our experienced Chinese medicine practitioners offer individualised acupuncture and complementary healthcare for women and couples preparing for pregnancy, whether conceiving naturally or undergoing assisted reproductive treatment.
We understand that fertility care can involve complex medical decisions, uncertainty and emotional challenges. Our approach combines traditional Chinese medicine principles with a contemporary understanding of reproductive health, providing thoughtful, personalised care alongside conventional fertility treatment.
Fertility Acupuncture and Preconception Care
Our fertility consultations begin with a detailed discussion of your medical history, menstrual cycle, reproductive health and lifestyle.
Depending on your circumstances, consultations may consider:
- Menstrual cycle regularity and menstrual symptoms
- Preconception health and preparation for pregnancy
- Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis
- Reproductive health investigations and fertility diagnoses
- Male reproductive health and fertility considerations
- Nutrition, lifestyle and general wellbeing
Our practitioners work with each person to develop an individualised treatment plan, which may include acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine where appropriate, and lifestyle guidance.
IVF and Assisted Reproductive Treatment Support
We offer complementary acupuncture consultations for individuals undergoing IVF, ICSI, frozen embryo transfers and other assisted reproductive treatments.
Treatment is planned with consideration for your fertility specialist’s recommendations, medication schedule and stage of treatment.
We recognise that acupuncture is a complementary therapy and does not replace fertility investigations or medical treatment. Evidence that acupuncture improves IVF pregnancy or live birth rates remains uncertain.
Pregnancy and Postnatal Care
Our care can continue throughout pregnancy and after childbirth.
We offer pregnancy acupuncture, birth preparation consultations and postnatal Chinese medicine care, with treatments adapted to your stage of pregnancy and individual health needs.
Other services available at Three Lanterns include pregnancy massage and osteopathy, providing additional options for personalised care.
