Dear Prospective Patient,
I am so excited to be giving my testimonial that I decided to write to the prospective client rather than to Dr. Celada. If you are having any second thoughts about having a course of acupuncture for menstrual and/or fertility issues, please read on. As I write this testimonial, I am 34 weeks pregnant and the happiest I have ever been in my life.
I had my first menstrual cycle when I was 11 years old, and since then, have had very irregular cycles. I would have anywhere from 6 to 10 menstrual cycles a year, with no predictability whatsoever. I had painful and heavy periods as well. At times, I was doubled over in bed for a day or two with pain, as well as moodiness and irritability for a few days. When I hit my late teens, I began to develp a bad case of dark facial hair, and suffered with electrolysis and acne on my face that lasted for several years. I visited a few Board-certified dermatologists and tried every prescription medication (other than Accutane), and the persistent acne would not resolve. I then tried other skin care specialists, many different types of skin care products and micro-dermabrasion and still could not get complete relief.
During my mid-twenties, I started researching my chronic medical conditions as a whole, and finally visited a renowned endocrinologist who diagnosed me with PCOS. Although I had already figured I had a hormonal imbalance, I was not happy with the diagnosis because I knew it may mean I would have a difficult time becoming pregnant. Both my endocrinologist and gynecologist suggested I take birth control pills to control the the problem, and then switch to Metformin when I decide to try to conceive. I took birth control pills in my late teens and early twenties, and refused to ever take them again because I felt better off of them. I also read a lot about Metformin, and although women with PCOS were having success, I did not want to resort to medical intervention as a first resort without trying a more mild, natural approach. I researched various alternative therapies. At the same time as all of this was going on, I met my future husband and we got married in February of 2004. I was 30 years old.
I decided to try acupuncture, and happened upon Dr. Celada's website. I gave her a call and scheduled my first treatment for June 24, 2004. At the same time, I charted my basal body temperature and took note of my cervical fluid. I diligently went for my weekly acupuncture appointments. Dr. Celada spent a lot of time with me during each appointment reviewing my current symptoms and asking me questions in order to tailor individualized treatment to meet my needs. She also mixed Chinese herbs every week in order to address my present symptoms. I diligently drank my herbs every day. At the same time, I was on absolutely no prescription medication or any other therapy. My cycles were still pretty long, and ranged anywhere from 40-50 days, but my premenstrual symptoms began to disappear. I did not feel as fatigued and foggy-brained during the day. I felt clearer and more energized. My husband noticed that I was barely moody and irritable when I got my periods. And, best of all, I never got one cystic pimple again! To this day, my skin remains clear and radiant. During my fourth cycle, and after about only 4 months of acupuncture, I got pregnant! My pregnancy was confirmed on December 15, 2004. I was ecstatic and felt great!
I continued acupuncture treatment during my entire first trimester, and am going back now for the last few weeks before labor. I have had an amazing and easy first pregnancy. I barely experienced any of the typical pregnancy symptoms that many women complain of, and have not missed a day of work due to the pregnancy. I am a true proponent of acupuncture therapy and Chinese herbs that are tailored for the individual in order to address fertility issues. The treatment is not time-consuming, and actually very relaxing. An entire course of acupuncture is also very reasonably priced, especially compared to conventional infertility treatment. I would also recommend acupuncture as an adjunct to conventional infertility treatment.
I would be very happy to speak to anyone in further detail about my treatment with Dr. Celada. Please request my contact information directly from her.
Sincerely,
Iris

Hi Dr. Celada,
I just went to your web site and read letters from your patients. I also want to add that you have helped me with my infertility I have been going through for 15 years. I have endometriosis, ovarian cysts, have been through many surgeries, 4 IUI's, and 3 IVF's.
I decided to give acupuncture a try since this was my last IVF attempt. I was so happy I did. You made it possible for my dream to come true. You helped me so much words cannot express it. You did everything possible to increases my chances of it working and thank God it did.
I want your patients and your future patients to know how wonderful you are. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and I am so happy that you have been blessed with your beautiful baby Dailey.
I hope to see you soon to meet my miracle Nathalia. She is now 6 months old and the best thing that has happened to me. I look at her and still cannot believe she is mine. Thank you again for being part of my life through my struggle of infertility. God bless you and your family always.
Sincerely,
Michelle Nieves
