Hi there! My husband and I have been trying to conceive for over three years. We just did our fifth round of IUI in November with no success. We started going to the chiropractor and acupuncturist to see if they may be able to help before we jump into IVF. I would like to know if anyone has had success with chiropractic and/or acupuncture. I also have been told by three different doctors that it is better to BD every other day rather than everyday. We have been doing this for quite sometime now and it's obviously not working, so I was wondering if anyone else has been told this or if you think it's a good idea to BD everyday? Thanks!

Thank you, Stilltryin. My Step-father is a Chiropractor and he said he has had patients who had been TTC and after beginning care with him had success. There have also been co-workers of my husband who have tried acupuncture with success, so I figure if I do both maybe it will double my chances! Have you considered IVF? If we do not conceive within three or four months, this will be our next step. I am just struggling with the thought of putting my body through all of that, not to mention the expense! But we'll do what we have to do. I'm sorry that you and so many other couples are struggling with TTC, but it's comforting to know that I am not alone. Good luck to you!
