Can acupuncture cure premature ovarian failure

summary

Premature ovarian failure (POF) refers to the phenomenon of amenorrhea before 40 years old caused by ovarian failure. It is characterized by primary or secondary amenorrhea, accompanied by increased serum gonadotropin levels and decreased estrogen levels, and accompanied by a series of low estrogen symptoms to varying degrees. Let's see if acupuncture can treat premature ovarian failure.

Can acupuncture cure premature ovarian failure

First: for patients with premature ovarian failure, the most important treatment is estrogen and progesterone replacement therapy. The purpose is to relieve hot flashes, night sweats and other similar symptoms, prevent long-term complications (such as osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, etc.), and prevent uterine atrophy.

Second: Although the current study found that 50% of patients with premature ovarian failure will have intermittent ovulation, especially young patients in the use of pure natural hormone for artificial cycle treatment, may stimulate ovulation, but it is not a high probability event.

Third: women who suffer from premature ovarian failure and have not given birth are eager to recover their ovarian function through treatment. But I'm sorry to tell you that once the ovarian function begins to fail, it can't be recovered, just like the birth, aging and death of human beings. As we have said before, the number of follicles in a woman's follicular pool is predestined by nature.

matters needing attention

The symptoms of premature ovarian failure can be seen directly from the appearance of women. Women with premature ovarian failure look older than normal women. This will greatly affect the lives of patients and bring great trouble to patients. So although it is difficult to treat, patients should also actively cooperate, so as to improve the condition.
