Is acupuncture effective for polycystic ovary syndrome?

The ovaries are a very important part of women. They mainly play the role of ovulation. Once there is a problem with the ovaries, it will affect normal ovulation and even pregnancy. Some female friends do not pay attention to personal hygiene and have frequent sexual life, which causes ovarian virus or bacterial infection and polycystic ovary disease. So they think of acupuncture treatment. So is acupuncture useful?

The most notable feature of PCOS is anovulation. Since there is no ovulation, the ovaries only secrete estrogen and androgen, but not progesterone. Estrogen stimulates the proliferation of the endometrium. Progesterone causes a secretory response in the endometrium. If the endometrium is exposed to the effects of estrogen for a long time without the effects of progesterone, endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer will occur. In addition, because patients with PCOS cannot ovulate, they cannot become pregnant naturally. Patients with PCOS are the most common infertility patients.

For patients with mild PCOS, conservative medication is generally used for treatment, which can achieve significant results in just one to three months, and the pregnancy rate is quite high. If medication and other treatments are ineffective. Surgical treatment, timely use of 3D micro-controlled superconducting interventional technology to treat polycystic ovary syndrome, you can get pregnant 2 or 3 months after surgery! It is recommended to go to a regular gynecological hospital for examination, diagnosis and treatment, and never seek medical treatment randomly!

The main purpose of PCOS treatment is to establish a normal menstrual cycle with ovulation and restore fertility. Once a normal menstrual cycle is established, conception can occur and the ovaries will no longer produce excessive androgens. Clomiphene is the first choice for the treatment of PCOS. Clomiphene can induce the hypothalamus to release gonadotropin-releasing hormone, which in turn promotes the pituitary gland to release follicle-stimulating hormone and promote the normal development of follicles.
