If you were experiencing multiple days of pain in any other part of your body - your abdomen, your leg or head - you would be promptly seeking help to get to the bottom of it.
Period pain, on the other hand, tends to be brushed aside with a dose of over-the-counter pain medication, a hot water bottle or a prescription for an oral contraceptive pill.
While acupuncture may not be for everyone, it is an often-unexplored pathway to a healthier menstrual cycle and body. It is important to be educated about alternative options to conventional medical approaches to women’s health.
