HOW IS MENOPAUSE SYNDROME IS TREATED WITH ACUPUNCTURE?
MENOPAUSE SYNDROME
Menopause is a natural biological process that marks the end of a woman's reproductive cycle. It is part of the aging process where women no longer release eggs from their ovaries, and their menstruation cycle completely stops. Menopause syndrome typically happens to women in their 40s or 50s, but some may experience it sooner (premature menopause) due to damaged ovaries or a hysterectomy.
MENOPAUSE SYNDROME SYMPTOMS
As a woman approaching her menopause stage, they may experience physical and emotional symptoms. Symptoms of menopause vary for each individual and can last for 4-5 years. Menopause symptoms may consist of irregular periods, vaginal dryness, hot flashes, chills, night sweats, insomnia, fatigue, body aches and pain, headaches, mood changes, slow metabolism, thinning of hair, and dry skin.
Risk Factors are:
Women in their 40s or 50s.
Had a hysterectomy.
Chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
Have primary ovarian insufficiency.
TREATMENT OF MENOPAUSE SYNDROME
Medical treatment for menopause is not required, but there are treatments to help relieve the signs and symptoms of menopause. Treatment can consist of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to replace hormones (estrogen and progesterone) that is no longer produced by the ovaries. Vaginal estrogen cream, insert, or gel helps with vagina dryness by releasing a small amount of estrogen in the vagina and then absorbed into the vaginal tissues. A low-dose of antidepressants, Gabapentin or Clonidine helps decrease menopausal hot flashes, and osteoporosis medication helps reduce bone loss. However, with the use of medications, it can increase health risks such as heart disease or breast cancer.
ACUPUNCTURE TO BENEFIT MENOPAUSE SYNDROME
Acupuncture and herbal medicine induce homeostatic response on the cellular level. They influence the body's internal organs to correct disrupted vital balance. Acupuncture helps the body by correcting the hormone imbalance by regulating the blood flow, metabolism, and quality of life as they transition to another stage of their life. Acupuncture and herbal medicine help by stimulating the central nervous system to release chemicals in the brain. The brain then releases other chemicals and hormones that influence the body's own internal regulating system. Acupuncture is safe and painless. There are no drugs or hazardous equipment used, and no surgical operation performed.
CASE STUDIES:
Based on a one year research conducted by Wake Forest School of Medicine and Duke University School of Medicine on the effectiveness of acupuncture on the menopausal syndrome. "The study population included 209 women age 45-60 who had at least four vasomotor symptoms per day and had not had a menstrual period for at least 2 months." Their participant was randomized into two groups. The first group had individualized acupuncture treatment for the first half of the year and usual care for the remaining second half of the year and the second group study was reversed. "Acupuncture care consisted of up to 20 treatments (the specific number was determined by the participant and practitioner); was given by licensed, experienced acupuncturist in a "real world" clinical setting; and included diagnoses from traditional Chinese medicine, a history, a physical examination, and an individualized treatment plan. All participants kept a daily diary on the frequency and severity of their vasomotor symptoms. They underwent study assessments at 2, 4, 6, 9, and 12 months after group assignment. The researchers found that acupuncture significantly reduced vasomotor symptoms by as much as 36.7 percent and improved several qualify-of-life measures, such as hot flash interference, sleep quality, physical symptoms, memory symptoms, and anxiety. All these benefits persisted at least 6 months beyond the end of acupuncture treatment... They began to see significant benefits after three acupuncture treatments, and they saw maximum clinical benefits after a mean of eight treatments."
Also, there are several testimonials on Agape Natural Health have proven acupuncture, and herbal medicine has successfully treated patients with menopause syndrome. Their patient had suffered from other health conditions with menopause syndrome symptoms, and after receiving acupuncture treatment from Agape Natural Health, here is what they had to say:
"I started treatment with the teas and the acupuncture that day. He also started treatment on me for my high blood pressure, high cholesterol and hot flashes. I suffered every night from approximately 10 years from these hot flashes that would wake me up 2 to 3 times a night. I noticed a difference with all my problems by the 3rd week of treatment." - A.S., Covina, California
"I suffered from extreme depression, moodiness and anxiety. I had a lack of desire for living and I wanted nothing to do with life itself... I began treatments consisting of acupuncture and herbal medicine... Within the first week, I started seeing a change and the depression was lifted. By the second month, I was on top of everything and life is wonderful again. I have 100% positive prospective. The treatments also helped with my menopause syndrome and I am not as moody as before. The combination of both acupuncture and herbs worked for me." A.W., Orange California

HOW IS DEPRESSION TREATED WITH ACUPUNCTURE?
DEPRESSION
Depression is a mental health disorder that persistently alters an individual mood. It affects their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. Depression interferes with their daily activities such as eating, sleeping, or working. Depression can lead to various emotional and physical problems. It causes them to feel sadness, has a loss of interest, and hopelessness that life is not worth living. Depression often begins in adulthood but can occur in children and adolescents.
DEPRESSION SYMPTOMS
Not everyone that is depressed will experience all the symptoms of depression. Symptoms for depression occur most of the day to nearly every day. They are persistently sad, have a feeling of hopelessness, helplessness, worthlessness, and emptiness. They feel anxious, fatigued, and restless. They have aches and pains, headaches, or cramps. Depression may cause a decrease in energy, difficulty concentrating, remembering, making a decision, and suicidal.
Risk Factors are:
Have a personal or family history of depression.
Have experienced either stressful, traumatic, or life-changing events.
Have a history of mental disorders, recreational drugs, or alcohol abuse.
TREATMENT FOR DEPRESSION
Depression can be treated with medication, psychotherapy, or electroconvulsive therapy (ETC). Antidepressant medicines may help improve an individual mood, but it takes about two to four weeks for the medication to be effective. However, not all antidepressant medication work for every individual. Therefore, they would need to try different types of antidepressants to find out which works best for them. Psychotherapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, interpersonal therapy, and problem-solving therapy can help an individual with depression. If neither medication or psychotherapy helps improves depression, electroconvulsive therapy, and other brain stimulation therapy is an alternative option.
ACUPUNCTURE TO BENEFIT DEPRESSION
Acupuncture helps depression by inducing the homeostatic response on the cellular level. They influence the body's internal organs to correct imbalances in the nervous system to improve the circulation of energy through the meridians. When an individual is under emotional and psychological state, acupuncture helps unblock the flow and release neurotransmitters that control mood and stress. They stimulate the central nervous system to release chemicals in the muscles, spinal cord, and brain. These chemicals will change the experience of sensory, or they will trigger the release of other chemicals and hormones which influence the body's own internal regulating system. Acupuncture is safe and painless. There are no drugs or hazardous equipment used, and no surgical operation performed.
CASE STUDIES:
A case study was conducted on a 22-year-old male at Guang' anmen Hospital, China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Beijing. The patient was diagnosed with neurotic depression. He complained about insomnia for five months and low spirits for one month due to a mental upset that occurred in his life. He was restless, had difficulty sleeping, and headaches. He couldn't concentrate, memory was deteriorating, and his speech was slow and incoherent. The patient developed fear and nervousness to the point where he had suicidal thoughts. After undergoing two acupuncture treatments, he was able to sleep for three to four hours, and his sensation of fear disappeared. He was still unable to concentrate more than an hour and still had headaches. On his tenth acupuncture treatment, he was able to sleep for six hours every night, his headache, irritation, and restlessness disappeared, and his behavior was back to normal. After the fourteenth treatment, all symptoms of depression was completely gone, his sleep schedule was back to normal, and he regained his memory. It is believed that acupuncture can regulate neurotransmitters and their moderators to restore the patient's body to a normal state.

ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION | INSOMNIA | WORRY AND FEAR | MENTAL HEALTH: A PATIENT'S EXPERIENCE WITH HERBS AND ACUPUNCTURE
On February 1st, 2013, patient RF came into Agape Natural Health seeking help for his anxiety, a mental health disorder characterized by an excessive feeling of worry, or fear that is strong enough to interfere with one’s daily activities, and for insomnia, a persistent problem of falling or staying asleep.
RF developed anxiety and insomnia during his early teen years when he experienced chest pain between the age of six through twelve years old. His chest pain would cause him to have shortness of breath and severe stinging pain as if a sharp stab to his chest with a dull ache. Unknown to his chest condition, over time, RF developed anxiety that accompanied by insomnia that prevented him from living his everyday life.
During RF initial consultation, he addressed his health concerns to Dr. Huang. RF experienced severe anxiety that caused him to have panic attacks, a sudden period of intense fear that triggers severe physical reactions when there is no real danger or apparent that provoked his heart to palpitate, have chest pain, sweat and shortness of breath with no control. His anxiety caused him to feel restless and fatigued that prevented him from sleeping and staying asleep. As Dr. Huang listened to RF health concerns, he recommended RF to take herbal supplements to improve his health and restore his balance. Dr. Huang also recommends that RF to follow-up once a week to see his progress.
By consuming the herbal supplement as directed by Dr. Huang, RF did not experience any side effects. Unlike modern medicine, RF primary doctor prescribed him with Zoloft, a generic medication sertraline hydrochloride that is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) that slows the reabsorption of the chemical serotonin in the brain. In hopes that Zoloft would help with his anxiety disorder, however, it's side effects caused RF to feel more tired, anxious, and sweat which interrupted his sleep. After a week of taking his herbal supplements daily, RF states that he hasn't had an anxiety attack or heart palpitation throughout a week.
Over time, Dr. Huang increased RF herbal dosage, and as RF continued to take his herbal supplements and did his weekly follow-up as directed by Dr. Huang, RF health has tremendously improved each week as he visited the office. Each week RF returned to Agape Natural Health for his follow-up with Dr. Huang, we noticed a slight difference in his appearance. RF seems more relaxed compared to the first day where he looked uneasy, tense and weary. His heart palpitation diminished, his severe anxiety subsides to where he has control of his life, and his insomnia is no longer present that he was able to sleep better than ever. By taking herbal supplements daily, it maintained RF health by strengthening his body to restore its chemistry. It also promoted healing and restored his balance to live a healthy lifestyle from anxiety and insomnia.
