This doctor is AMAZING! If you're used to Western medicine, this is a totally different experience/approach--but an effective, long-term solution. It does take more discipline than just taking a pill, but it's so worth it.
I hadn't had my period for six months and went to her out of desperation. I felt sluggish, bloated, couldn't lose weight no matter how much I exercised, and had these stubborn white bumps on my chin that nothing could get rid of.
On my first visit, she did acupuncture, and a week later started me on herbs. She explained that I had something called dampness. (You can actually look it up--Chinese medicine has foods that help clear it.) Basically, dampness is stagnant energy in the body caused by mucus or phlegm blocking your energy. Sugar, dairy and cold foods feed dampness.
I followed the strict Chinese medicine diet that ChatGPT recommended for my symptoms. I only ate and drank warm foods, took the herbs, and within a week my skin was glowing and those white bumps were completely gone. As my body was clearing out the dampness, I did get a few small abscesses.
At my next visit, she noticed I had phlegm in my chest and did acupuncture, fire cupping/wet cupping, and another round of herbs. During the cupping, she used a special technique that drains blood from the back to release what she calls "bad blood"--and I swear, my whole body deflated. After that treatment, the abscesses disappeared.
After my second round of herbs and staying consistent with warm foods and drinks, my period finally came back last week! I feel amazing, and I've lost 7 pounds in a month.
I can't recommend her enough to any woman who feels stuck with her hormones or tired of being told to take pills. It's a process, but it truly works if you do your part. read more
