PCOS

Acupuncture can be a real game-changer for managing Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). Here's how it works: PCOS disrupts hormone and blood sugar levels, causing irregular ovulation and menstrual periods, weight gain, and sometimes difficulty getting pregnant. Acupuncture steps in by balancing these hormones—think of it as pressing the reset button on your body's hormonal control center.

During acupuncture, tiny sterile needles are inserted into specific points on your body. This isn't as scary as it sounds—we promise! These points help improve blood flow to your ovaries and uterus, which is super important for regulating your menstrual cycle and promoting ovulation.

Acupuncture also helps tackle one of PCOS's biggest bullies: insulin resistance. By nudging your body to use insulin more effectively, acupuncture, nutrition and the right supplements can help manage blood sugar levels and reduce cravings for those sneaky carbs that cause chaos with your metabolism.

It's not just about the physical symptoms. Acupuncture sessions can dial down your stress levels, which can be a big contributor to PCOS symptoms. When you're less stressed, your reproductive hormones can find their balance more easily.

Whether you're aiming to regulate your periods, boost fertility, or just feel more in control of your body, acupuncture can be a supportive ally on your PCOS journey.

Advanced Maternal Age and DOR

Many of us delayed starting or expanding our families for excellent reasons. As we get older, our egg quality and quantity naturally decline. Acupuncture steps in by improving blood flow to your ovaries and uterus, which can help boost the environment where those eggs are developing. By stimulating specific points on your body, acupuncture helps regulate hormone levels that are crucial for ovulation and egg quality.

Best of all? We address more than the physical aspect of reproduction. Acupuncture sessions are like a spa day for your stress levels. They help calm your nervous system and reduce stress hormones that can cause havoc with your reproductive health.

Acupuncture is a gentle, supportive way to enhance your fertility journey, especially when you’re navigating the challenges of advanced maternal age and diminished ovarian reserve. If you’re thinking about exploring natural options to optimizing your fertility, acupuncture could be an effective, nurturing companion along the way.
