Tomorrow my family will gather around a turkey and give thanks for a miracle you made possible - Madeline.

"Thank you" doesn't feel like enough but it's all I know. Thank you for making me a mom!

I met Dr. Ruijuan Liu in October of 2012. At that time, I was under the care of my gynecologist/endocrinologist for secondary infertility related to Diminished Ovarian Reserve, inconsistent cycles, and a low antral follicle count. The odds were not in my favor, but my doctor seemed to think that with some help from Clomid and, later, Follistim (an injectable medication), that I might be able to achieve pregnancy again.

After reading about traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture, I decided to seek help from Dr. Liu. On her website, there were several testimonials from other women who became pregnant under her care; I also liked that she was a member of an Acupuncture Infertility Group and consulted with other doctors around the country. I felt completely at ease in her care and looked forward to my sessions with her; I only wish I could say the same for my gynecologist.

After many devastating months of failed cycles, my period suddenly stopped in January of 2013. After the medication Provera would not bring it on, my gynecologist did some more blood work, revealing my hormone levels to be in a post-menopausal state. I was 34 years old. I sat in disbelief as my doctor suggested hormone replacement therapy for overall heath and, if I wanted to get pregnant, using a donor egg. The next day, I made another appointment to see Dr. Liu and share the news with her.

Dr. Liu did not sugarcoat the blood work results; she agreed that this was not an ideal situation. But she also felt strongly that it was the medication, not just my body, which caused my menopausal state. I committed to weekly treatments with her, followed her diet recommendations, and began taking a series of Chinese herbs. I started to feel like myself again.

In March of 2013, my cycles resumed after only a month of treatment. At this time, I also sought out another RE for a second opinion and, to my surprise, he completely agreed with Dr. Liu's diagnosis of medication induced menopause.and he supported our choice to not resume fertility drugs. Instead, that first cycle, he monitored me from the beginning and - to my surprise - I actually ovulated. Something I failed to do for over a year.

I continued seeing Dr. Liu and following her advice, feeling better physically and mentally each day. And, in mid April, after only two months after that terrible diagnosis, I received the best gift of my life: a positive home pregnancy test. There are no words to fully describe that moment, but if you are struggling with infertility, I am sure you can imagine the complete shock and pure joy my husband and I felt. I couldn't wait to share the news with Dr. Liu.

I continued to see Dr. Liu through my first trimester and took such comfort that my baby and I were in such capable, caring hands. I plan to see her again before and after the birth of the baby, in December 2013.

I am now 22 weeks along and, each day, I know how lucky I am to be where I am.thanks to Dr. Liu. For anyone else who is considering acupuncture, I am a true believer that it works. Dr. Liu changed my life, and for that I am deeply and forever grateful.

My husband and I wanted to start a family as soon as we got married. After multiple early miscarriages we decided to see a fertility specialist. Test after test showed that there was no apparent reason why this was happening to us. The only thing they found was that I had a folic acid deficiency so I began taking supplements. We also decided after hearing from a friend that acupuncture was very successful for her that maybe it was worth a try. I found Jane on line and set up an appointment right away. Jane focused on my total well being, not just the reproductive organs. She found that I had a blood deficiency that was affecting my body. She gave me good advice of foods to eat and avoid and lifestyle changes that would help me, as well as working with me through acupuncture and herbal teas. She was honest with me that it may take awhile to strengthen my blood, and it took 6 months but I became pregnant and for the first time heard a good strong heartbeat and my blood work was very promising. I continued to see Jane throughout my entire pregnancy and besides the usual aches and pains of pregnancy I felt great! I actually had more energy when I was pregnant and seeing Jane regularly than before I was pregnant! I delivered a healthy 8 lb 12 oz baby boy and we couldn't be happier. I will forever be grateful for my little miracle and would definitely recommend acupuncture to anyone trying to conceive and having trouble.

My husband and I had been trying to conceive for over two years. We visited fertility specialists and were diagnosed with unexplained infertility. I underwent 3 rounds of Clomid and two failed attempts of IUI. The cost was prohibitive and I had little faith that subsequent rounds would result in a successful pregnancy. I decided to seek alternative treatments and chose acupuncture.

Dr. Liu took time to thoroughly understand my health history and match a therapy that would support conception. It was evident that she possesses deep experience in acupuncture and herbal therapist. During my third month of treatment we successfully conceived our first child and are extremely excited. I credit this pregnancy to Dr. Liu's expertise and her practice of acupuncture. We are deeply and sincerely grateful.

Just wanted to thank you for helping me on my journey to become a Mom. I appreciate all your kindness and encouragement and I strongly believe acupuncture contributed to my success.

I still can't believe she's mine! I am loving every second with her. She is so amazing....

...I just wanted to thank you for everything that you did for me before the transfer and during the pregnancy. There are a few people who I believe played a part in this miracle we have received and you are one of them. I felt comfortable the first day I met you and was open to everything you have to offer for my treatment. I don't believe I could have made it in this far without you and can't thank you enough for your expertise in acupuncture but also for your support. I felt that you really supported me during the pregnancy and I held onto that strength to believe that this could happen and it did.

I had said that you are part of this miracle as we got further along in the pregnancy ad I still believe it today. My husband and I started this journey to have a child back in the spring of 2004.... going through everything we have gone through, we do believe God has blessed us and give is this miracle but again, we had some special people in our lives on this last try that were a part of this dream coming true and you are one of them. Thanks again for everything you did and for being not only great at what you do, but for being such a supportive and thoughtful, person.

After trying to conceive for 9 months I found myself looking for alternative assistance. After 6 weeks of acupuncture treatment from Dr. Liu I became pregnant. Dr. Liu treats not only the physical maladies but also provides much needed emotional and mental support. Her personal attention is apparent in the first visit. While initially my knowledge about acupuncture was very limited, I quickly learned what 5,000 years of practice has proven. Dr. Liu takes pulls together thousands of years of learning to treat your mind, body and spirit. We are now 29 weeks pregnant and looking forward to a happy, healthy son! Thanks Dr. Liu!

In 2007, When I moved from Georgia to Pennsylvania, My Chinese Acupuncturist doctor referred me to Dr. Jane Liu for follow up of my very early pregnancy, Dr. Liu help me with acupuncture to keep a regular hormones balance and avoid any new miscarriage. After 4 years of miscarriage and infertility I was finally able to give birth to a healthy baby. Dr. Liu also help easing the pain I felt because of cramps during the pregnancy ( I had a placenta previa) with acupuncture.

In 2009, when I tried to conceive another pregnancy nothing happened. I went back to Dr. Liu. This time she treated me fully with both Chinese herbs treatment and acupuncture. After 3 months of treatment I conceived again, Dr. Liu treated me all along my pregnancy to stop the cramps I suffered from. Acupuncture is a fast relief from such pain.

At the maternity I was unfortunate enough to get Singles. Not knowing and suffering I went to Dr Liu who diagnosed me and treated me with Acupuncture against the pain. Breast-feeding my baby conventional doctors could not prescribe efficient treatment; Dr. Liu gave me some herbs to boost my immune system a little more.

My husband and I were trying to get pregnant since four years ago when I deliver my son who is now 4 years old. I never thought it was going to be so difficult to get pregnant again. After having 2 miscarriages I decided to go to a fertility specialist. I went under fertility drugs and four inseminations when we decided to try for an IVF. I did 3 IVF with very poor results. Just a few eggs to implant or no eggs at all. The doctor said my only problem was related to the poor quality of the eggs I have due to my age; 41 years old.

After that 3rd IVF without success my husband and I decided to try for alternative options and that's when I started with acupuncture and herbs.

At my first appointment with Jane I was convinced that acupuncture could help me. I consider Jane a truly expert. The knowledge she has and the way she understands every concern is remarkable. Also she has been giving me advises about nutrition and life style since the beginning of the treatment. I had weekly treatments and I could see the wonderful changes the acupuncture and herbs were doing to my body. We decided to have IVF number four. I had seventeen eggs and six embryos to transfer. That was a huge change from the other three IVF. I didn't get pregnant as a result of that IVF but my husband and I decided to stick with acupuncture and herbs. I got pregnant naturally one month after that IVF. I am currently 28 weeks pregnant and I will deliver our baby girl at 43 years old.

For any couple going through infertility, I would strongly recommend that you consider acupuncture and herbs at Jane's clinic.

I want to thank you for your help with my pregnancy. I truly believe that your treatment helped me to sustain my pregnancy and prevented me from having another miscarriage.
