Korean medicine

[Endometriosis] If pain persists even after endometriosis surgery, it’s important to focus on recovery management as well

  • Ulsan Post-surgery care for endometriosis cannot be viewed as “over just because the surgery is done.”
  • This is because even after the lesion has been removed, symptoms such as menstrual cramps, pelvic pain, ovulation pain, fatigue, and intestinal or bladder discomfort may persist or worsen again over time.
  • In addition to follow-up gynecological examinations, it is important to monitor menstrual flow, pain patterns, recovery and stamina, as well as inflammation and circulation.

[Miscarriage & Postpartum Recovery] If Your Period Has Changed After a Miscarriage, You Should First Check Your Recovery Progress

  • Ulsan The recovery of menstruation after a miscarriage is not simply a matter of checking whether “your period has started again.”
  • To better understand the body’s recovery process, it’s important to consider the timing, volume, color, and pain associated with your first period after a miscarriage, as well as the presence of clots, changes in your cycle, and feelings of fatigue.
  • Even if your period has returned, if its pattern has changed significantly from before or if you are considering preparing for your next pregnancy, it is a good idea to carefully assess your physical condition.
Korean medicine

[Ovulation Disorders] If you’re having trouble conceiving even when timing intercourse to coincide with ovulation, you should first check for ovulation disorders

  • Ulsan When consulting about ovulation disorders, the most important factor is not whether you “have your period,” but whether “ovulation occurs regularly.”
  • If your menstrual cycle is getting longer, you’re having trouble getting pregnant even when timing intercourse around ovulation, or your basal body temperature and ovulation test results are inconsistent, you should check for ovulation disorders.
  • Polycystic ovary syndrome, diminished ovarian reserve, thyroid and prolactin abnormalities, weight fluctuations, lack of sleep, and stress may all play a role.
Korean medicine

[Gastrointestinal] If you frequently experience abdominal pain and alternating episodes of diarrhea and constipation, check for irritable bowel syndrome

  • Ulsan Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a condition characterized by recurring abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, and a sensation of incomplete bowel movement, even when medical tests show no significant abnormalities.
  • It is not just inflammation of the intestine itself; bowel motility, intestinal sensitivity, stress responses, and sleep and eating patterns may all play a role.
  • Ulsan The most important thing when consulting about irritable bowel syndrome is not to look at any single symptom in isolation.
Korean medicine

[Uterine Disorders] Why Does Vaginitis Recur in Ulsan? It Depends on the Type and Symptoms

  • In cases of recurrent vaginitis, it is necessary to assess the internal vaginal environment and immune status in addition to checking for bacterial infections.
  • If you experience an increase in vaginal discharge, itching, or a stinging sensation caused by itching, these may be signs of a vaginal infection in Ulsan.
  • In early-stage cases, antibiotics can be effective, but if you have experienced this condition two or three times or more, we recommend traditional Korean medicine.
Korean medicine

[Stress Urinary Incontinence] If you leak urine when you cough, you should check for stress urinary incontinence

  • Ulsan Stress urinary incontinence is a condition in which urine leaks when coughing, sneezing, laughing, exercising, or lifting heavy objects.
  • Unlike symptoms such as a burning sensation or frequent urge to urinate—which are typical of cystitis—this condition often occurs when increased abdominal pressure weakens the pelvic floor muscles and the support for the urethra.
  • Ulsan The most important thing when consulting about stress urinary incontinence is not to look at just one symptom in isolation.
Korean medicine

lentigines How do I remove it?

  • Pigmentation that leaves the face looking blotchy is a concern for many people.
  • Many people ask how to remove them
  • Today, we’ll take a closer look at “lentigines.”
Korean medicine

[Amenorrhea and Oligomenorrhea] If your period is several months late, you need to distinguish between amenorrhea and oligomenorrhea

  • Ulsan During consultations for amenorrhea, we don’t just look at how long your period has been late.
  • You should also check for possible pregnancy, sudden weight changes, stress, lack of sleep, polycystic ovary syndrome, and thyroid and prolactin issues.
  • If you haven’t had a period for three months or more, or if your cycle repeatedly extends to 35 days or longer, you should view this as a sign from your body.
Korean medicine

[Endometrial Polyps] If You Experience Spotting After Your Period Has Ended, You Should Be Checked for Endometrial Polyps

  • Ulsan Endometrial polyps are a uterine condition that should be checked for if you experience spotting after your period ends, an increase in menstrual flow, or repeated episodes of clotted blood.
  • A polyp is a protrusion of part of the endometrium; while not all cases are dangerous, it may need to be examined in relation to abnormal bleeding and infertility · implantation issues.
  • Ulsan The most important thing during a consultation for endometrial polyps is not to look at just one symptom in isolation.
Korean medicine

[Bladder and Urinary Disorders] Cystitis in Ulsan: If inflammation is the cause of frequent urination, you should seek treatment.

  • If you find yourself going to the bathroom frequently or have difficulty holding your urine, you should identify the cause.
  • Rather than feeling refreshed, you’re left with a lingering sense of unease, and you may find yourself reluctant to go out or waking up frequently while sleeping.
  • Since these symptoms may be signs of a urinary tract infection in Ulsan, it is important to assess your internal condition to prevent recurrence, and we can help soothe your symptoms through traditional Korean medicine treatment.
