常见问题

Can acupuncture help me get pregnant?

Acupuncture supports fertility by improving blood flow to reproductive organs, regulating hormones, and reducing stress. Studies show improved IVF success when acupuncture is used around embryo transfer. For natural conception, it may take 3-6 months of regular treatment.

Is acupuncture safe during pregnancy?

Yes, when performed by a trained practitioner. Certain points are contraindicated in pregnancy, but many are safe and beneficial for nausea, back pain, and preparation for labor. Always inform your practitioner if you are or may be pregnant.

Can TCM replace HRT for menopause?

TCM can be an effective alternative for women with mild-moderate symptoms who prefer not to use HRT or have contraindications. Severe symptoms may require integrated approaches. Discuss with both your TCM doctor and gynecologist.

How does menstrual cycle timing affect treatment?

TCM gynecology often times treatments according to cycle phases: menstruation (regulate flow), follicular phase (build blood/yin), ovulation (move qi), luteal phase (support yang). This timing optimizes the treatment effect.
