Hi there!

Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Micaela. I own and operate Raku Acupuncture in Doylestown, Bucks County PA.

I specialize in fertility and reproductive health. I also work with pregnant and postpartum folks and I am expanding further into the perimenopause and menopause realm which is so fun and exciting.

If you have been following along for a while or if you are new here, welcome. Social media can be quite overwhelming these days (anyone else feeling it?), so I like to just hang in the space of reminding people that I am here. My acupuncture practice is local to Bucks County, it’s in the center of Doylestown, and that I love my work and supporting my people.

Raku acupuncture may be the perfect place for you if you have been struggling to conceive, are doing IVF or IUI, have been managing (or just grinning and bearing it??) painful or irregular cycles, going through menopause, or pregnant and postpartum and could use some support.
Sound like you? Book an appointment with me at the link in my bio.

As your fertility acupuncturist, my role isn’t to diagnose these conditions, but to help you understand your options, ask informed questions, and advocate for a thorough evaluation so you can feel confident you’re leaving no stone unturned on your path to parenthood.

I like “advocate for and explore” better than just “advocate for” because many of these factors require conversations with a reproductive endocrinologists, OB/GYNs primary care physicians, or urologists rather than simply requesting a specific test. It’s helpful to have someone in your corner helping you navigate it all!

Coming off of hormonal birth control is a very personal choice. Some of my people do it to connect back in with their cycles. Some do it to conceive and some prefer to not be on birth control of any kind because of the side effects.

When you come off hormonal birth control, there is a bit of a waiting game that happens. I have seen a lot of different experiences for people, so this is where acupuncture really shines. We can support regular periods and ovulation, blood flow to the reproductive organs (hello oxygen!), and preparation for conception (if desired!).

Nope! Fertility Acupuncture can support all fertility journeys- no medical intervention, medicated cycles, IUI and IVF.

Here is why:

Acupuncture has been shown to:

✨Improve blood flow to the uterus and ovaries.
✨Help regulate the nervous system and reduce chronic stress.
✨Support hormone regulation through the brain-ovarian communication pathway (called the HPA)
✨Improve sleep quality which can support blood sugar, hormones, and stress
✨Reduce PMS and PMDD
✨Reduce pelvic pain and menstrual pain.
✨Support ovulation in some individuals, particularly when ovulatory dysfunction is present (Like those of us with PMOS!)

From my perspective, this is where acupuncture shines! It treats you as a whole human and helps to optimize the back end of your systems and body. It doesn’t matter what place you are at trying to conceive. It meets you where you are.

Really interesting research!

I get asked a lot about when couples should try to conceive each month. This graph clearly focuses on timing around ovulation, before measured as - # days before ovulation and + # as days after ovulation. Notice how short the days after ovulation is. That’s because the egg is viable only for 12-24 hours post ovulation.

This graph shows relative chances really well. I do want to note that this study is from 1995, which in terms of research, is quite old.

Do you know when you ovulate? Or are you just relying on LH strips to clarify that for you? I instruct my patients on how to read and watch their body signs for the fertile window so you know when you can reasonably conceive each month.

Body empowerment is the real win for us all. Book an appointment with me at the link in my bio to learn how to track your cycle and support conceiving.

This graph comes from Fertility IQ and the source of the research is from the study called Timing of S*xual In*******se in Relation to Ovulation: Effects on the Probability of Conception, Survival of the Pregnancy, and S*x of the Baby by Allen J. Wilcox, Clarice R. Weinberg, and Donna D. Baird. Published in 1995 in The New England Journal of Medicine.

It’s important to understand what we actually mean by egg quality.

The truth is, egg quality isn’t something we can measure with a simple blood test.

When healthcare providers talk about egg quality, they’re really talking about whether an egg has the ability to mature properly, be fertilized, develop into a healthy embryo with the correct number of chromosomes, implant successfully, and ultimately result in a healthy pregnancy.

That’s a lot for one tiny cell to accomplish.

Many different factors influence this process, including age, genetics, overall health, hormone balance, inflammation, metabolic health, and the environment the egg develops in during the months leading up to ovulation.

The encouraging news is that while we can’t change our age or genetics, we can support the environment in which our eggs develop. And we can also shift that environment with acupuncture. Acupuncture has been shown to improve blood flow to the reproductive organs and improve live birth outcomes. I have helped so many people through recurrent loss and miscarriage. Honestly, I love offering this kind of support.

So many people ask me about cadence of care and my recommendations. Here are some general thoughts (with the knowledge that everyone’s care is incredibly personalized).

I like to see people who are struggling to conceive weekly for at least 3 months. That gives us three cycles to work on, notice changes, and improve a multitude of outcomes. It also gives us time to learn how to track your cycle, and learn the fertility awareness method. I give ample lifestyle advice that I want you employing at home. Most of my people conceive within those three months, which is amazing!

We also know that the s***m and the egg cells take about three months to mature. So when we make active changes in our lives (like working with an acupuncturist) there are a lot of things that are improving in our present health (managing stress better, sleeping more deeply, less painful periods, more regular cycles), but we are also investing in the future by working on egg quality and s***m quality.

Acupuncture has been shown to improve mitochondrial health of egg cells as well as improve blood flow to the reproductive organs. It is one of the few modalities that can do that.

When I work with folks going through IUI and IVF, the recommendations largely stay the same. I like to support through both follicle development and egg retrieval weekly. During transfer timing we increase to twice a week just because there is compelling research that says acupuncture just before and just after a transfer increases the likelihood of implantation and pregnancy.

Turns out acupuncture is incredibly relaxing… unless you’re a small business owner with uninterrupted access to your own thoughts.

But in all seriousness, this is one of the reasons I love acupuncture. Sometimes the brain needs a few minutes to run through the entire list before it finally gets the memo that we’re allowed to rest.

And yes, I should probably take my own advice and get on the table more often.
