Acupuncture for Fertility & TCM Support in Koh Samui
Quick answer
Acupuncture supports fertility by regulating the cycle, improving blood flow to the reproductive organs and lowering stress — whether you are trying to conceive naturally or supporting IVF or IUI. At Piraluna we work with your cycle, not against it.
TCM has supported reproductive health for centuries, and modern research backs it: acupuncture can improve cycle regularity, blood flow and the body's response to fertility treatment. It is a calm, drug-free layer of support during a process that is often stressful.
How we treat it at Piraluna
At Piraluna we tailor treatment to where you are in your cycle and your wider picture. Your practitioner reads your pulse and tongue to understand the pattern — irregular cycles, painful periods, hormonal shifts — then uses acupuncture to regulate the cycle and improve circulation to the reproductive organs, often adding moxibustion and a herbal formula. For patients doing IVF or IUI, we time sessions around the key stages of treatment.
Treat the root, not one symptom
Stress and sleep have a real effect on the cycle, so calming the nervous system is part of fertility support, not a separate job.
What it costs
Fertility support is a course of treatment, not a one-off — typically weekly or fortnightly sessions over two to three cycles, adjusted around any IVF or IUI timeline.

Common questions
Does acupuncture improve IVF success?
Research suggests acupuncture around IVF can support blood flow and lower stress. We time sessions around the key stages of your cycle and work alongside your fertility clinic.
How long before we try should I start?
Ideally a few cycles ahead, so there is time to regulate the cycle and improve the underlying pattern. That said, support at any stage is worthwhile.
Can you help with painful or irregular periods too?
Yes. Painful, irregular or heavy periods and the hormonal shifts around them are core women's-health work for us, and often the first thing we help regulate.
How much does it cost?
A single session is 2,000 THB. Because fertility support is a course, the 5 and 10-session packages are the usual route and lower the per-session cost.
