Women with a history of recurrent pregnancy loss are more than twice as likely to seek out acupuncture during a frozen embryo transfer than women without that history. Women who have already failed three or more rounds of IVF are nearly twice as likely. These are the findings of a 2026 retrospective study from University Hospitals Cleveland, published in F S Reports, that looked at 799 women undergoing frozen embryo transfer and tracked who chose to add acupuncture and Chinese medicine to their care, and who did not.
