Semen Analysis

A careful quantitative and qualitative examination of your semen is the foundation upon which your male infertility evaluation is built upon. The volume, the viscosity, the color and the pH of the semen is determined. Then using a microscope, a drop of the semen is examined to count all the sperm within it.

Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine

Robert Nuttall, Doctor of Oriental Medicine, in conjunction with Wayne Kuang, M.D., and the Southwest Fertility Center for Men, has established an acupuncture treatment plan for male infertility. The protocol is based on both ancient and modern sources. It is a weekly treatment that takes about thirty minutes. After ten treatments, progress markers for sperm condition are then reassessed by doctors at SFCM.

Dr Nuttall also performs a pre-retrieval in-vitro fertility (IVF) acupuncture protocol for enhancing embryo transfer success rates in women.

Dr Nuttall is licensed by the New Mexico Board of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, and certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in Alexandria, Virginia. He is a primary healthcare provider covered by most insurances, including Presbyterian, Lovelace, Blue Cross Blue Shield, United Healthcare, Cigna ,and others.
