Acupuncture for Unexplained Infertility
Unexplained infertility is one of the most frustrating diagnoses to receive. After months or years of trying to conceive, being told that everything looks normal but still not getting pregnant can feel deeply disheartening. The truth is, just because the cause hasn’t been identified yet doesn’t mean there isn’t one. And it certainly doesn’t mean there’s nothing you can do.
A Holistic Lens on Unexplained Infertility
In many cases, unexplained infertility is later linked to subtle or overlooked factors that may not show up on standard labs or imaging. These can include endometriosis without classic symptoms, egg quality issues, mild hormonal dysregulation, subclinical thyroid conditions, chronic inflammation, immune dysregulation, or “silent” forms of PCOS (sometimes called lean PCOS).
At Seed Acupuncture, we take a deeper, whole-body view of fertility. Using Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), we assess for underlying patterns such as Liver Qi stagnation, Blood deficiency, or Kidney essence depletion, that may be affecting ovulation, implantation, or hormonal communication, even when everything appears “normal” on paper.
Unexplained doesn't have to mean unsupported. At Seed Acupuncture, we offer thoughtful care to help you navigate what’s next, even when clear answers are hard to find.

A success story from one of our patients:
“Morgan Hartley is one of the smartest women I know. I had been trying to conceive for about a year before I started seeing her. When we had our first meeting we went over everything and all of my symptoms and I felt like she listened and made note of everything so that she could connect the dots and figure out what was going on in my body. I had been to many other doctors and no one else paid this much attention to my symptoms and was able to figure out that I most likely had endometriosis and suggested I see a specialist. She helped my body prepare for the endometriosis surgery and heal post surgery. In addition, she gave me many recommendations of things to try to help me feel better and conceive.
And it worked! She has such a heart for women going through this tough phase and was with me every step of the way making me feel heard and supported. I can’t recommend her enough! If you’ve been trying to get pregnant and haven’t been successful, Morgan is exactly the person you want to see.”
