I believe all well-trained acupuncturists know some points can't be used during pregnancy. It is quite safe to continue to get acupuncture treatment, especially if you are worried about taking medicine during this period of time.

Is it advisable to take acupuncture treatment along with normal medication?

Hi,

This is a great question that usually people take medicine to control their hypertension with for the rest of their lives. I do see people getting better or who don't need to take medicine after long-term acupuncture treatments. The difference is acupuncture tries to treat the root of the health issue. By doing so, the body recovers.

My answer for you is YES, it is safe to get treatment with medication, but for the long-term, you might recheck with your doctor to adjust your medicine.

If you are taking herbs, this needs to be more discussed due to the same effect in the body. Please check with an herbalist about that.

Hope you are feeling better sooner.

Hi,

This is a good question, but I would like your attention. Lack of sex drive could be for a few reasons: they might be tired, no energy; might be physiological, emotionally; might be uncomfortable feeling, aging with hormone changing, etc.

I will suggest the best way is to be honest with your wife, sincerely discuss this first. Maybe she doesn't think this is an issue for her side. If she also finds this is an issue, she'd probably like to be treated. Acupuncture helps her to balance emotional, hormonal, and some physical issues.

Hope you two can talk it through and find some common ground.

Hi,

In the Chinese medicine point of view, it could be a few points you can think about:

1. Stress related: Stress will decrease digestion function and cause problems.
2. Diet: you may eat some foods that your body can feel bad and get gas faster.
3. Lack of good and friendly bacteria in the body.
4. Do you like to eat fried foods and dairy? When the digestive system is not strong, these foods tend to cause more problems.
