Is acupuncture effective for treating patients suffering from hot flashes associated with menopause?
Vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause ( hot flashes and related symptoms such as night sweats) affect 75% to 80% of women.
A review of studies of acupuncture for hot flashes and related symptoms associated with menopause analyzed combined evidence from an earlier review of 15 studies (over 1,100 participants) and 4 newer studies (over 600 additional participants).
The analysis found acupuncture was better than no acupuncture at reducing the frequency and severity of symptoms.
Healthcare continues evolving to less-invasive, natural, and drug-free methods, with acupuncture now being a first-line complementary healthcare choice.
