Abstract

With a rise in the use of alternative medicine, such as acupuncture, reflexology, and herbal remedies to treat infertility, it is important to consider if such treatment regimens are rooted in evidence. This piece provides a brief overview of the literature on the efficacy of common forms of alternative methods to treat infertility and concludes by suggesting potential reasons for its increased use.
