I love Dr. Li. She helped me have a baby at 41. I had two miscarriages before trying acupuncture. Although I did not hold much hope of it working, after a two months of sessions and taking the pills she recommended I became pregnant and gave birth to a beautiful little girl in January. I am hoping to get lucky again and give her a little sister. If you are struggling with fertility, I highly recommend Dr, Li!
