Women's health

Care alongside your OB-GYN or fertility clinic — not instead of it.

Alongside fertility treatment

Many of our patients come in during IVF or IUI, often around transfer, and continue through the cycle. We work to the timing your clinic gives you.

Straight about the evidence: research on acupuncture and IVF outcomes is mixed and the studies disagree. Some patients find the visits help with the stress of a cycle. We will not promise you a pregnancy, and be wary of anyone who does.

Menstrual and menopausal symptoms

Painful or irregular periods, cycle-related headaches, and perimenopausal symptoms are among the most common reasons women book here. Usually a course rather than one visit, timed around your cycle.

Ongoing pelvic discomfort

If you have persistent pelvic pain or abnormal bleeding, get it assessed by a physician. Fibroids, endometriosis, adenomyosis and thyroid disorders need a diagnosis, and complementary care is not a substitute for one. Once you know what you are dealing with, we will work alongside that treatment.

What to tell us when you book

Where you are in your cycle, your timeline if you are in treatment, any diagnosis, and everything you are taking including supplements. Say so if you are or might be pregnant.

Treatment rooms are private and quiet.

Read further. The U.S. National Institutes of Health publishes a plain-language summary of what the research does and does not show about how to talk with your physician about complementary care you are adding. Read it at NCCIH.

This page describes what treatment involves. It is not a promise of a result and not a diagnosis. Keep your physician informed about complementary care you add — particularly if you are pregnant, on blood thinners, or under active treatment.

Planning your first women's health visit

When booking, share any diagnosis, medications and supplements, and the schedule your OB-GYN or fertility clinic has given you. Read what happens at a first appointment and meet the Haram team.

If you plan to use acupuncture benefits, check your plan's coverage and diagnosis restrictions. Contact our Tappan clinic for appointment times and current fees.

Questions before you book?

Call and ask. If what you need is a diagnosis rather than treatment, we will tell you that.
