Chinese medicine, in conjunction with proper diet, exercise, and healthy lifestyle choices, offers a credible alternative to a Western approach. In Western medicine, dysmenorrhea is treated with temporary painkillers and birth control pills; endometriosis with surgery and hormone therapy. These offer symptomatic relief but are invasive, expensive, or may have serious side effects. Chinese medicine is lower cost, noninvasive, and has no side effects when properly practiced by an acupuncturist. TCM offers a safer and more natural approach to these issues, as well as other gynecological health matters.
And since Chinese medicine and acupuncture work by restoring balance to the entire body-mind, not only is your main complaint resolved, your whole sense of health and well-being is improved.
