Women’s Health and Reproductive Support
The application of acupuncture in women’s health has expanded in 2026 to include complex hormonal and reproductive issues. It is frequently used to balance the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Ovarian (HPO) axis.
Fertility Support: Acupuncture is often integrated into IVF protocols to increase blood flow to the uterus and reduce the stress response during the transfer process.
Menstrual Health: It is a first-line non-drug option for managing severe dysmenorrhea (painful periods) and symptoms of PMDD.
Perimenopause: Beyond hot flashes, it is used to manage the anxiety and insomnia that often accompany the hormonal shifts of midlife.
