Cycles after acupuncture

A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭
London, UK

Hi all,

I was just wondering if anyone has had acupuncture, and if so what was the outcome, i.e, did you start a period, did it bring on ovulation.

I had my second session yesterday though I’m being realistic and not expecting any dramatic changes. Just wondering what your outcome was and how many sessions it took?

Thanks!

I go once a week for electo-accupunture. It's helped with my periods. My husband commented on how much better my symptoms were. I didn't believe him. I stopped going for 2 months and my period skipped those months. When I returned, I got my period back and the pain in my ovaries left. I LOVE how it makes me feel. I haven't gotten pregnant but, I'm also dealing with other health issues too.

I tried acupuncture before I got the PCOS diagnosis and I was in the midst of 6 months without a period. it did not seem to help, though I find it very relaxing
