Endometriosis

Endometriosis is a long-term condition in which tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside it, often causing pelvic pain and sometimes difficulty getting pregnant. At Netra Integrative Health Clinic in South Plainfield, NJ, acupuncture, Ayurvedic medicine and herbal medicine are offered as complementary care for endometriosis-related pain and wellbeing. This care works alongside your gynecologist’s diagnosis and treatment and does not replace them.

Fertility

Fertility is the ability to conceive and carry a pregnancy, and it depends on the reproductive systems and hormones of both partners. At Netra Integrative Health Clinic in South Plainfield, NJ, acupuncture, Ayurvedic medicine and herbal medicine are offered as complementary care for people trying to conceive, mainly for stress and general wellbeing. This care works alongside your physicians and fertility specialists, does not replace testing or treatment, and cannot promise a pregnancy.

Hormonal Imbalance

Hormonal imbalance is a general term for having too much or too little of one or more hormones, which can come from thyroid disease, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), perimenopause, stress or other causes. At Netra Integrative Health Clinic in South Plainfield, NJ, acupuncture, Ayurvedic medicine and herbal medicine are offered as complementary care for symptoms such as irregular periods, hot flashes, poor sleep and stress. This care works alongside medical testing and treatment and does not replace them.

Irregular periods are menstrual cycles that vary in length, timing, flow or duration, or that are missed altogether. At Netra Integrative Health Clinic in South Plainfield, NJ, acupuncture, Ayurvedic medicine and herbal medicine are offered as complementary care alongside a medical evaluation of the cause. This care does not replace that evaluation or any treatment your doctor prescribes.

At Netra Integrative Health Clinic in South Plainfield, NJ, acupuncture, Ayurvedic medicine and herbal medicine are offered as complementary care for these symptoms. This care works alongside your doctor’s guidance and does not replace it.

This care works alongside medical evaluation of the cause and does not replace it.

Morning Sickness

Morning sickness is nausea and vomiting in early pregnancy that can happen at any time of day. It is common, usually settles in the second trimester, and can become severe enough to need medical treatment. At Netra Integrative Health Clinic in South Plainfield, NJ, acupuncture and related care are offered only as supportive care, with your obstetric provider managing your pregnancy and aware of the care you receive.

Ovarian Cysts

Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that form on or inside an ovary, and most in women of reproductive age are harmless and go away on their own. They need a medical diagnosis first. At Netra Integrative Health Clinic in South Plainfield, NJ, acupuncture, Ayurvedic medicine and herbal medicine are offered only as supportive care for symptoms such as pelvic pain, alongside your gynecologist’s care and never in place of it.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

Pregnancy Symptoms

Pregnancy symptoms are the physical and emotional changes the body goes through during pregnancy, such as nausea, tiredness, back pain and mood changes. Pregnancy needs care from your obstetric provider, and Netra Integrative Health Clinic in South Plainfield, NJ, offers acupuncture, Ayurvedic guidance and herbal medicine only as supportive care alongside that care, after your provider knows about it. We do not manage the pregnancy itself.

Netra Integrative Health Clinic in South Plainfield, NJ, offers acupuncture, Ayurvedic medicine and herbal medicine only as supportive care for symptoms, alongside medical treatment, and cannot reposition or repair a prolapse.

Recurrent Miscarriage
