WOMEN'S HEALTH

Understanding Women’s Health

​

Did you know that women spend nearly 40% of their lives navigating hormonal changes? Even when symptoms are labeled as "normal," many women grapple with fatigue, pain, weight gain, and more. Unfortunately, these issues are often dismissed or misattributed. Historically, most medical research has focused on men’s health, neglecting the unique hormonal factors that affect women’s bodies. At AB Acupuncture, we see things differently.

Women’s health encompasses a wide range of issues, including those unique to women and conditions that affect both genders but may impact women differently, such as heart disease and diabetes. Our mission is to support our female patients throughout every stage of life—from menstruation and fertility to pregnancy, postpartum care, menopause, and beyond. Women’s bodies are unique, and they deserve specialized care.

A Rich Tradition of Women’s Health Care

​

In China and East Asia, the treatment of women’s health has a long and respected history. While male doctors often provided general care, it was women within households who cultivated specialized knowledge in treating the unique challenges women face at different life stages. This invaluable wisdom has been meticulously preserved and, when combined with our modern understanding, serves as a powerful tool to support women’s health at every phase of life.
