Gynecology
Traditional Chinese Medicine treats a whole range of gynecological issues ranging from uterine fibroids, infertility, menstrual irregularity, premenstrual syndrome and menopausal syndrome. Gynecology and obstetrics have been specialties within the field of Traditional Chinese Medicine for literally thousands of years. There has been extensive research in recent years concerning acupuncture and its effects on fertility.
Premenstrual Syndrome affects approximately 1/3 of premenopausal women. Common symptoms include pain, breast tenderness, bloating, weight gain, diarrhea, skin outbreaks, mood swings, low energy and food cravings. Many PMS patients deal with their pain through over-the-counter or prescription pain medications.
Acupuncture and herbs are very effective in treating Premenstrual Syndrome. Regulating emotions and relieving pain are usually the first steps taken in treating PMS. Most patients experience improvement in their symptoms by their first or second cycle.
Menopause is part of the natural menstrual cycle of a woman and signals the end of menstruation. In this regard, menopause is not a disease but part of the expected change that women experience. Menopause can be premature due to ovarian failure or surgical removal of the ovaries. Traditional Chinese Medicine is helpful in alleviating the symptoms of menopause, which include hot flashes, night sweats, depression and mood swings, and drying and thinning of mucous membranes.
