At Taupo Acupuncture Centre we specialise in treating all gynecological disorders.

Endometriosis

The most common symptom of endometriosis is pain during period, but a woman with endometriosis may also experience pain that doesn’t correlate to her cycle. 

Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus is found elsewhere in the body.


30-40% of women with endometriosis are infertile.

The cause of endometriosis is unclear in conventional medicine, although there are many theories. Western medical treatments include drug therapy and surgery. Endometriosis is diagnosed through a laparoscopy. This procedure allows the surgeon to see inside the abdominal cavity through a tiny lighted optical tube that is inserted through a small incision in the navel.

How Acupuncture Helps Endometriosis

Acupuncture Treatment will...

Alleviate pain by increasing blood circulation in the pelvic organs and by stimulating the release of endorphins (the bodies own natural pain killers).

Control and shrink endometriosis and reduce growth and recurrence of endometriosis by breaking down congealed blood/blot clots and dissolve masses.

Improve the immune and endocrine systems by stimulating the autonomic nervous system to help eliminate stray endometrial cells.

Relieve stress and correct disruptions in the flow of the bodies energy, returning the body to good health.

Warm the uterus, restore renal and adrenal function to correct irregular cycles, help ovulation and enhance fertility.  

Minimize undesired side effects and accumulated toxicity from medication and invasive procedures.  


Avoid cold temperatures or the consumption of cold foods or iced drinks especially during menstruation.

Eat more soy products, soy has an anti-oestrogen effect.

Avoid vigorous exercise during menstrual flow.

Eat a low-fat diet, excess body fat increases estrogen production and can lead to various gynecological problems.

Avoid alcohol, caffeine and chocolate, which can raise oestrogen levels.

Fish oils (2000mg twice daily) decrease inflammation and growth of abnormal endometrial implants.

Vitamin B6 (50-100 mg daily) reduces oestrogen receptors.

Vitamin E (400 IU daily) is an antioxidant that prevents inflammatory reaction and enhances immune response.
