the investigators want to study whether 12 weeks of acupuncture has any effect on AMH and the ovarian reserve in women with low ovarian reserve (low responders). AMH is measured before and after 12 weeks of acupuncture and the clinical response to controlled ovarian hyperstimulation before and after the acupuncture is compared.
AMH is measured cycle day 2 or 3 before and after 12 weeks of acupuncture and the levels are compared. Furthermore, secondary outcomes from IVF treatments before and after the intervention are compared.
