PCOS was once thought to be a single condition but it is now known that there are many sub-types of PCOS. With Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, we take the entire body into account particularly when it comes to fertility and reproductive issues. In conventional medicine, there is no standard treatment for PCOS, at best you are offered birth control or drugs to force ovulation. With Chinese Medicine we differentiate the specific type of PCOS you have then use acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine to treat the specific root causes. This allows us to normalize your menstrual cycle, help you to regularly ovulate and balance your hormones.
PCOS is usually diagnosed when it is discovered that a woman’s ovaries contain multiple cysts or her androgen levels and fasting insulin levels are elevated. This condition typically occurs in women of child-bearing or reproductive age, which means it can make it difficult or even impossible to become pregnant without treatment. PCOS treatment may involve acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, nutrition and diet changes, reducing stress and balancing hormones.

- Irregular menstrual cycles or anovulation (no ovulation)
