Polycystic O***y Syndrome (PCOS) can show up in many ways: irregular cycles, hormonal imbalances, fertility challenges, and even fatigue or mood swings. Acupuncture and Chinese herbs offer a gentle, natural approach to managing PCOS and restoring balance. Here’s a simplified example of how:
🌸 Balancing Hormones with Yin-Yang Theory: Aspects of hormonal imbalances show up through symptoms relating to yin and yang theory. Acupuncture can help restore balance, promoting regular menstrual cycles and reducing symptoms like acne, or excess hair growth.
🌿 Moving Qi and Blood: PCOS is often linked to what we call “stagnation” or “dampness” in Chinese medicine. Acupuncture improves the flow of Qi (energy) and blood, especially to the reproductive organs, helping support ovarian health and regulating ovulation.
✨ Transforming Dampness: Many women with PCOS experience symptoms that align with “damp accumulation,” such as bloating, sluggishness, or difficulty losing weight. Acupuncture, combined with dietary recommendations, can help clear dampness and restore energy.
☯️ Calming the Mind (Shen): Acupuncture can be amazing at calming the nervous system down, which not only has a profound effect on he body as a whole but significantly improves symptoms related to PCOS.
