Irregular cycles, menstrual discomfort, or a prolonged effort to conceive can leave you wondering what more you can do. Whether you are trying naturally or considering assisted reproduction, your concerns deserve time and personal attention.
At a personal assessment, Dr. Park listens to your cycle history, day-to-day symptoms, and goals. Together, you can explore an individualized East Asian medicine approach that takes your existing medical evaluation and care into account.
You are welcome to bring your questions, whether you are just beginning or have been trying for some time.
A More Individualized Way to Approach Fertility
Not every body responds the same way — and fertility care shouldn't be one-size-fits-all.
Understanding Your Pattern
Dr. Park reviews your cycle history, sleep, digestion, energy, discomfort, and prior medical evaluation. Traditional East Asian medicine pattern assessment informs individual treatment selection within licensed scope; it is distinct from a medical diagnosis of infertility.
Acupuncture and Herbal Care
Care may include acupuncture, individually selected herbal medicine when appropriate, and guidance about daily routines. Herbal options are reviewed against your medications, reproductive treatment, and pregnancy circumstances, with fertility clinician and pharmacist input on potential interactions.
Care While Trying to Conceive Naturally
You do not need to be preparing for IVF or IUI to explore care. If you are trying to conceive naturally, Dr. Park considers your cycle concerns alongside sleep, digestion, energy, discomfort, and your medical history to discuss an individual acupuncture and herbal approach. Timely medical fertility evaluation can proceed alongside this care, particularly with irregular or absent cycles or when trying after 35.
Trying to Conceive After 35
If you are trying to conceive after 35, your visit reviews your cycle history, any evaluation or treatment already underway, and your overall health, so acupuncture and herbal care can be planned around your timeline. Medical fertility evaluation is often recommended sooner at this stage, and care here can proceed alongside it.
Acupuncture Alongside IVF and IUI
Preparing for IVF or IUI brings practical questions about when visits can fit. At an in-person assessment, Dr. Park reviews your cycle schedule, medications, supplements, and goals to plan acupuncture around your reproductive team’s treatment schedule.
With your authorization, Dr. Park can coordinate timing and care considerations with your reproductive team. Visits are planned around your appointments and changing circumstances, with any herbal decisions reviewed separately.
What You May Be Experiencing
Bring the concerns most relevant to you to an in-person visit so care can be planned around your experience and goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about fertility acupuncture and herbal medicine in Hicksville
What is the role of acupuncture alongside IVF or IUI?
Acupuncture can be included as optional complementary care alongside IVF or IUI. Dr. Park reviews your cycle schedule, medications, and goals to plan visits around your reproductive team's care. With your authorization, he can coordinate timing and care considerations with that team.
When should I start fertility acupuncture?
You can arrange a personal assessment while trying to conceive naturally, preparing for IVF or IUI, or during treatment. Timing reflects your circumstances and medical schedule, without a required lead-in. Timely medical fertility evaluation can proceed alongside care, especially if you are trying after 35 or have irregular or absent cycles.
How are herbs and supplements reviewed during IVF, IUI, or pregnancy?
Herbal medicine is individually selected when appropriate, not automatically added during IVF, IUI, or pregnancy. Herbs and supplements may interact with medications or be unsuitable during treatment or pregnancy. Bring your medication and supplement list to the visit, and consult your fertility clinician and pharmacist before starting or changing a product.
How often would I need visits?
Visit frequency is planned with you around your goals, symptoms, preferences, and fertility schedule. Follow-up visits review tolerability and changing circumstances so the plan can be adjusted. You may modify or stop care; there is no automatic months-long package.
Where is the clinic, and how do I book?
Visits take place at 380 S Oyster Bay Road, Hicksville, NY 11801. Our Hicksville office on S Oyster Bay Road is convenient to Plainview and Syosset, with two shopping centers across the road.

What does research say about fertility acupuncture?
Several recent reviews report encouraging findings: higher pooled clinical pregnancy rates with acupuncture during IVF, a notable signal before frozen embryo transfer, and a small reduction in IVF-related anxiety. Results vary with timing, protocol and comparison group, live-birth findings are less consistent, and certainty is often rated low or very low. Our research guide explains each study and how it can inform an individualized plan; no individual outcome is guaranteed.
