“Dysmenorrhea” is the medical term for painful menstrual periods. It happens because your uterus contracts to shed its lining. The pain typically begins just before your period and subsides after a few days.
In addition to cramping, you might have other symptoms, such as nausea, fatigue and diarrhea. It’s most common to have menstrual cramps the day before or the day you start your period. For most people, symptoms subside after about two or three days. Mild to moderate menstrual cramping is normal. But some people have such severe pain during their period that it interferes with their day-to-day life and prevents them from doing things they enjoy. But nothing to worry, acupuncture can help you save your day!
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), acupuncture helps manage symptoms of painful periods. Usually, women take painkillers to ease painful periods, ranging from mild to more severe. Placing acupuncture needles to its designated points in your body may help ease discomfort and reduce menstrual pain.
Acupuncture for Period Pain & PMS, Endometriosis, PCOS and other menstrual irregularities
In acupuncture, stimulating certain points in the body with fine needles helps restore the flow of qi (life force or energy) and bring balance back to the body. Taking painkillers and covering the abdomen with a heating pad are the most common methods to reduce discomfort during menstruation. But for a more natural approach, acupuncture can be ideal. It only requires acupuncture needles and a licensed acupuncturist like Dr. Annie Yang 杨 to do the treatment for you!
Period pain (dysmenorrhea) is a debilitating condition for many women, particularly younger women. There is good evidence to show that acupuncture is very effective for reducing the intensity of menstrual cramps and the length of time the pain is experienced. Unlike painkillers it doesn’t just treat the symptoms as they occur, but has an effect to lessen period pain for future cycles.
