Acupuncture- Does it work?

My mom was talking to a co-worker some time before the holidays, they got to talking about my infertility issues, and PCOS. In their conversation the co-worker had mentioned that is wife is essentially a Chinese herbalist who does acupuncture. She said she has a really high success rate of getting women to ovulate. I did a little more research and asked around to some other women who have tried it. It was about 50/50, some of the women had success some did not. So New Years Day I had my first appointment. It was not as bad as I thought. I was really nervous about having needles on different areas of my body. It didn't even hurt at all and it was very relaxing and enjoyable. So for now I go every week on Saturdays untill I get a period. I've also started using herbal supplements and drinking herbal tea daily. The dr also gave me an herbal patch to wear for 3 days similar to a Thermcare Menstrual heat pad. Today (Saturday January 20th) will be my 4th appointment. I can't tell yet if it is working, but it is very relaxing and I feel more energetic when taking the supplements. I will do update posts as time progresses.
