Q I'm looking for a Korean medicine clinic near Dongincheon. How often do I need to come in for amenorrhea treatment?
A Treatment usually involves acupuncture once or twice a week along with daily herbal medicine. We review progress once a month and adjust the prescription, gradually lengthening the intervals once signs of menstruation begin to appear.
Detailed Answer
Because amenorrhea is a state in which the menstrual cycle itself is absent, it takes time to observe changes in treatment. In the early stages, you come in once or twice a week for acupuncture while taking herbal medicine consistently, and we review progress and adjust the prescription each month. Once signs of menstruation (a heavy sensation in the lower abdomen, changes in discharge) begin to appear, we adjust the visit intervals. Even for those who work full-time, we design a realistic and sustainable schedule together during consultation.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
For those coming from Dongincheon or Dong-gu, Incheon, treatment can proceed adequately with one visit a week plus focused herbal medicine, taking the distance into account. What matters is consistency, and we set the treatment direction together while reviewing changes over a two- to three-month benchmark.
