Why Acupuncture for Irregular or Delayed Periods?

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, delayed menstruation is often linked to yang deficiency or disrupted qi and blood flow. Acupuncture helps restore hormonal balance, improve circulation, and support healthy ovarian and uterine function – without the side effects of synthetic hormone therapy.
