Ultrasound Monitorig
for Your IVF Cycle
For IVF monitoring cycles that are out-of-state of your location
Starting your cycle
Starting an IVF cycle is stressful enough, doing it with an out-of-state provider just increases that stress. That is why we have developed an out-of state monitoring program to help women that need ultrasound monitoring without having to travel to their provider. We follow your physicians instructions and with be able to accommodate your schedule. Most all cycles, whether retrievals or transfers, will need 2-3 ultrasounds during that cycle. All reports can be faxed or emailed to your physician within 2-3 hours after the exam is finished.

Testimonials
My name is Michelle Aukerman. And I just have to say that Joyce at True Health Acupuncture is probably the best ultrasound technician I have ever had in my life and I’ve been through several. She’s very personal and talks through everything and if something goes wrong, she says OK how do we make this right? What’s the next step we need to take? You don’t hear that from any other ultrasound tech, they're so jaded. The comfort environment at True Health Acupuncture is unmatchable. It does not feel like a doctor's office and everybody is so warm but when it comes to Joyce, she is completely unmatched. It’s like having your own mother right there with you. I highly highly recommend her.
Thank you, the Aukerman’s

This is the second pregnancy that I came to Joyce for my outside monitoring. I have been very nervous about the whole process, but Joyce guided me through each and every ultrasound. Although the monitoring went smoothly, upon achieving pregnancy I developed some bleeding. Of course, I panicked. Joyce explained everything that was going on with my bleeding and helped me through this anxious time. I don’t know what I would have done without Joyce’s calm demeanor. And the added bonus is having acupuncture treatment right there at True Health Acupuncture, the office Joyce works out of. I will always be truly thankful for the amazing experience that I received from both Joyce and True Health to be a part of my fertility journey.

Joyce is an exceptional individual who made a significant impact during my IVF journey. I had the privilege of meeting her when I needed support, and she was able to perform ultrasounds when our IVF Dr was unable to accommodate us. Her ability to confirm our twin pregnancy was incredibly reassuring. Joyce took the time to explain everything she was observing, which not only made the experience more memorable but also helped alleviate my anxiety. Her compassionate approach truly made a difference in my experience.

🌿 Supplements and Natural Support for Male Fertility: What Actually Works?
🔹 Introduction: A Growing Interest in Natural Help
When sperm quality is borderline — or even when medical causes have been ruled out — many couples look to supplements and lifestyle strategies to improve their chances. But with so many products claiming to “boost sperm,” how do you know what’s worth trying?
This guide breaks down what’s backed by research, what might help, and what to watch for.
🧪 What Can Supplements Help With?
Most male fertility supplements aim to:
Improve sperm count (how many)
Improve motility (how they swim)
Improve morphology (shape and structure)
Reduce oxidative stress (which damages DNA)
Sperm take about 74 days to regenerate — so any supplement regimen should be taken consistently for 2–3 months before testing for results or starting IVF.
💊 Top Fertility Supplements for Men
1. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)
Antioxidant that supports mitochondrial energy
Improves sperm motility and count
Typical dose: 200–300 mg/day
2. Zinc
Supports testosterone production and sperm formation
Deficiency is linked to poor motility and low volume
Dose: 15–30 mg/day (don't exceed 40 mg without supervision)
3. Vitamin C + Vitamin E
Powerful antioxidant duo
Protect sperm DNA from free radicals
Vitamin C dose: 500–1,000 mg/day
Vitamin E dose: 200–400 IU/day
4. L-Carnitine
Found naturally in the epididymis
Enhances sperm motility and energy
Typical dose: 1,000–2,000 mg/day
5. Selenium
Essential for healthy sperm morphology
Works well in combination with vitamin E
Dose: 100–200 mcg/day
6. Ashwagandha
An adaptogen that supports hormone balance and stress reduction
Shown in studies to improve sperm count and motility
Dose: 300–600 mg/day
7. Folic Acid
Not just for women — may support DNA synthesis in sperm
Dose: 400–800 mcg/day
8. N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC)
Increases glutathione, a master antioxidant
May reduce DNA fragmentation
Dose: 600–1,200 mg/day
🧬 Are Male Fertility Vitamins Worth It?
Many brands offer “all-in-one” blends like:
FH PRO for Men
Conceive Plus Men’s Fertility Support
Nature’s Craft Fertility Formula
These blends are convenient but vary in dosage quality. Always check the label for:
Form of nutrients used (e.g., zinc picolinate vs. zinc oxide)
Additives, fillers, or hidden allergens
Reviews from users going through IVF or IUI
💡 Tip: High-quality standalone supplements may outperform some combo pills, especially for men with borderline semen parameters.
🧠 What Supplements Can’t Do
They won’t fix structural blockages (like obstructive azoospermia)
They can’t reverse severe genetic defects
They don’t guarantee fertilization success in IVF
Results vary — some men see huge gains, others little change
That’s why supplements are best used in conjunction with medical evaluation, not as a replacement.
⚠️ Check with a Specialist Before Starting
Men taking medications (like for thyroid, depression, or cholesterol) or with chronic health conditions should check for supplement-drug interactions. A fertility urologist or integrative physician can tailor recommendations.
🧠 Final Takeaway
Supplements aren’t magic pills, but for men facing suboptimal fertility, they can be a powerful support tool — especially when started early. Combined with healthy habits and fertility testing, they might just be the difference-maker you didn’t know you needed.
