Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common hormonal conditions affecting women of reproductive age. Chinese Medicine offers an effective complementary approach to PCOS management that addresses the underlying hormonal dysregulation rather than just the symptoms.
Research suggests acupuncture may influence the neuroendocrine system and may help support LH/FSH balance, androgen levels, and insulin sensitivity, all key drivers of PCOS. Specific acupuncture protocols using electro-acupuncture have shown particular promise in clinical research.
Our team develops personalised treatment plans addressing your specific PCOS pattern, which may involve: regulating the menstrual cycle, managing acne and skin changes, addressing weight and insulin resistance, reducing excess androgens, supporting fertility and ovulation, and managing anxiety and mood.
Chinese herbal medicine is a powerful component of PCOS treatment, with formulas selected to address the specific Chinese Medicine pattern underlying your presentation. We also provide detailed dietary and lifestyle guidance based on both traditional and modern evidence.
