Using Acupuncture to Treat Fibroids of the Uterus

We would like to share one of Dr. Yu's success on reducing the size of fibroids in a female patient. She has been seeing Dr. Yu for acupuncture treatments twice a week for this issue. Before the treatments, the results of the ultrasound in May 2008 were as follows:

The following fibroids are measured:
1) fundal right calcified: 8.5 x 6.8 x 8.2 cm
2) right low calcified: 6.5 x 6.6 x 8.6 cm
3) left low calcified: 2.7 x 2.9 x 3.0 cm
4) left subserosal: 1.7 x 1.3 x 1.6 cm
5) fundal right subserosal: 2.6 x 1.9 x 1.7 cm

Another ultrasound was done in November 2009

The following fibroids are measured:
1) fundal right calcified: 8.1 x 7.9 x 6.0 cm
2) right low calcified: 3.7 x 3.9 x 3.6 cm
3) left low calcified: 2.5 x 2.3 x 2.2 cm
4) left subserosal: 2.1 x 1.6 x 1.9 cm
5) fundal right subserosal: 2.4 x 1.5 x 2.8 cm
