Abstract
Female reproductive aging is a common cause of infertility in women in their late 30s and 40s [1] Because female fertility begins to decline in women of advanced reproductive age (≥ 35 years old), advanced reproductive age (ARA) is a risk factor for female infertility, pregnancy loss, fetal anomalies, stillbirth, and obstetric complications [2]. This article reviews on 10 clinical cases of Canadian women who are infertile due to advanced reproductive age with low AMH level (<1 ng/ml), and, who, after several failed IUI or IVF cycles, were treated with acupuncture for 3 to 6 months. All 10 women had spontaneous pregnancies and live births. Acupuncture is effective for patients of advanced reproductive aged with low AMH who did not respond to IUI or IVF protocol. Method: based on weekly treatments, the 12 course-treatment of acupuncture focussed on invigorating kidney qi and nourishing the spleen and stomach in order to increase the probability of the outcomes of pregnancy and live birth by regulating menstruation and ovulation, and improving egg quality.
