Moderate: Larger, often somewhat raised implants, and
Severe: Inflammation and scarring caused by the unabsorbed blood can form in bands of fibrous scar tissue, adhesions that bind pelvic organs together restricting their movement and potentially causing pain.

The Chinese Medicine approach to Endometriosis is to identify and treat the underlying condition that is causing the hormonal imbalance as well as to alleviate symptoms. While every patient’s individual needs are different, the general rule of thumb is 3-6 months of treatment prior to natural or assisted conception. A 3-month minimum is the time it takes to balance and regulate the reproductive system so that healthy eggs and uterine lining are produced. Acupuncture treatments are typically performed weekly and Chinese herbal formulas are added to further balance the body.
