Infertility is estimated to affect one in seven couples worldwide. With such a prevalent issue, and the low success rate and high cost of Western medicine treatments, more and more people have turned to acupuncture and Oriental medicine for help. The pregnancy success rate of Oriental and Western medicine combined is about 75%, versus 10-38% with in-vitro fertilization alone.
