Hormonal Imbalances

Acupuncture for Hormonal Balance

The endocrine system regulates virtually all physiological processes in the body. Hormonal imbalances can manifest as menstrual irregularities, menopausal symptoms, thyroid problems, or polycystic ovary syndrome. Acupuncture acts on the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis to naturally restore hormonal balance.

Conditions treated

• Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
• Menopause and perimenopause symptoms
• Hypothyroidism (complementary)
• Severe premenstrual syndrome
• Dysmenorrhea and amenorrhea
• Insulin resistance

Clinical evidence in menopause and PCOS

Research published in Human Reproduction and Menopause Journal shows that acupuncture significantly reduces hot flashes, emotional lability, and sleep disturbances in menopausal women, with effects comparable to low-dose hormone therapy and without its risks.
