Neuro-Endocrine Modulation, Endogenous Opioid Release, and HPO Axis Balance
Clinical Acupuncture utilizes micro-fine filiform sterile needles (0.25mm) inserted into anatomically mapped Meridian points. Combined with low-frequency electro-stimulation or moxibustion, it triggers endogenous endorphin release, modulates the HPO axis in PCOS, and accelerates nerve tissue repair.

Needle insertion at specific acupoints stimulates mechanoreceptors and A-delta / C sensory afferent nerve fibers. These impulses travel up the spinothalamic tract to the periaqueductal gray (PAG) matter in the midbrain, triggering central release of endogenous opioids (beta-endorphin, enkephalin, and dynorphin).
Endogenous opioids bind to mu- and kappa-opioid receptors on presynaptic nociceptive terminals in the spinal dorsal horn, closing pain gates (Gate Control Theory) and providing potent analgesia for sciatica, cervical spondylosis, and osteoarthritis.
Electro-acupuncture applied at low frequencies (2 Hz to 10 Hz) acts directly on the hypothalamus, modulating gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) pulse frequency. This normalizes the LH-to-FSH endocrine ratio in PCOS, induces ovulation, and reduces circulating androgen levels.
BNYS acupuncture physician examines radial pulse quality, tongue coating, and dermatomal nerve pain distribution.
Skin is cleansed with isopropyl alcohol; sterile single-use filiform needles are inserted into targeted acupoints to elicit the De-Qi sensation (dull numbness/tingling).
Micro-current leads (2 Hz - 10 Hz) are attached to needle handles, or indirect moxibustion mugwort thermal heating is applied over cold meridians.
Needles are safely extracted into sharps bio-containers; small Vaccaria seeds are placed on ear reflex points for continuous self-stimulation.
100% single-use disposable needles opened directly from sterile blister packaging in front of patient.
Skin disinfected with 70% Isopropyl Alcohol swab.

No. Acupuncture uses ultra-thin micro-fine needles (0.25mm), which are significantly thinner than hypodermic injection needles. Patients feel only a mild, brief sensation of tingling, heaviness, or dull ache known as "De-Qi", indicating nerve activation.
Low-frequency electro-stimulation applied to abdominal and leg acupoints regulates hypothalamic GnRH secretion, helping normalize LH/FSH ratios, lower androgen levels, and induce spontaneous ovulation in women with PCOS.
Most patients experience initial pain relief within 3 to 5 sessions, with complete functional recovery achieved over a full clinical protocol of 10 to 12 sessions.
