Acupuncture as part of the Traditional Chinese Medicine treats hormonal imbalances very o regulate and rapidly normalize the prolactin levels. The treated patient is an 18 year old girl with high levels of prolactin - 49 ng/mL (normal range – 4.50-33.0 ng/mL). The menstruation was also delayed for several days. The patient was treated with acupuncture with duration of 35-40 minutes one side of the body. 9 treatments were made once weekly in a period of 3 months. After the 9th treatment the results from the blood test came normal
and the prolactin level was normalized – 22.1 ng/mL.Acupuncture as a treatment for hyperprolactinemia can be a very successful treatment by improving the hormone levels,harmonizing the menstrual and ovulation function and the overall reproductive health.
