Acupuncture for young women

[StephanieJayne19]

Hi,

my names Steph and I'm 19 and have very irregular periods. I'm considering going on the pill because I need help for my skin as well. So I was wondering if acupuncture can help me to regulate and also get better skin. Also is it costly? And would I need to keep going continuously?


Thanks.

Acupuncture works well with menstrual irregularities and skin conditions. Costs vary depending on your practitioner. If cost is an issue then be sure to call around for a better price. Try using the practitioner search on this website. You may need a few treatments initially to get everything under control and then a followup/maintenance treatment every few weeks after. This all depends on your practitioners diagnosis however.

Try once... i think acupuncture treatment is very efficient in various kind of hormone problems.

Steph,
Change your diet and change your life. You are only 19 years old.. You have a lifetime to still live yet.. if you do some simple things right now, and look seriously to who you are, and where you wish to be in 2,5,10,20 more years time, you will see a difference. Your skin will begin to radiate and glow with your maturity. Your mind and body and spirit will change. Look into some TCM changes in diet and try some taiji and qigong. If you are concerned about the cost now.. think about the cost and the money you will have to spend in the future. Herbs would be best for you right now.. to help regulate the kidney yin and the liver qi. These are words used in TCM, so I would find a real practitioner of TCM who can best explain your changes and to help you with some simple herbs and exercises. In the long term, it is the simple things in life, that when done regularly, that will make the most difference to your health, now and for your future. I wish you well..

Sky..
