One study which focused on women undergoing IVF showed that three months minimum of acupuncture & Chinese herbal medicine prior to starting an IVF or IUI cycle increased the outcomes of live births were 73% higher in the group who underwent three months of regular acupuncture treatment before their egg retrieval and transfer. This study shows us that working on egg quality which takes three months minimum can greatly effect positive outcomes in fertility. You can read more about the research here.
