Why does acupuncture help fertility?
Acupuncture can definitely assist in fertility. I recently went through this process, and now I’m 23 weeks pregnant. There are a few questions I have for you: Have you and your husband had a blood tests done to check your levels? Have you had any tests done like an SIS, or HSG? 2 months is not a long time, although when trying to conceive it feels like forever. You can always do what I did. I looked at my daily routine and I cut certain things out. No alcohol, boosted my supplements from Chinese herbs to a multi. Cleansed my body, mind, and really tried not to stress out. Acupuncture was extremely helpful in the journey. READ MORE
Can acupuncture work for acne?
Hello, I am really sorry to hear you're dealing with acne, especially when you are a teenager and a young adult. So, this topic I know personally being that I suffered from cystic acne, off an on... until I hit 35 years old. Unfortunately, I did not have the knowledge, and I was taken advantage of financially. Topicals, oral pills, lasers, facials, chemical peels, even a course of Acutane, which I did 3 times. It really depends on what type of acne you have. It could be food related, food sensitivity, dietary, skin care regime, and the biggest issue at all...HORMONES. So, here’s my suggestion: I would have a basic blood chemistry work-up, especially a female hormonal panel. That would be my first step. You asked about acupuncture, so I highly recommend this. Acupuncture can cover all basis. Meaning, food digestion, hormonal balancing, helps relieve stress, clear heat from the body, (that’s an eastern medical term), etc. Being that I’m eastern and western trained, I know both worlds of medicine. Also, dealing with this personally, I completely understand it and I’m compassionate. Remember, acupuncture is not a one time procedure you have to commit to it. It is amazing, and you will see it even on the first visit. Just find an acupuncturist that treats your current situation. Herbs are usually combined and are highly recommended.
