Acupuncture and supportive care for women experiencing threatened miscarriage Clinical Trial


Experiencing vaginal bleeding during early pregnancy, even when a scan has confirmed that the baby is viable can be very distressing for some women. At present medical care involves a 'wait and see' approach.

This new study being undertaken in Wellington New Zealand, will examine if acupuncture and supportive care can help women experiencing threatened miscarriage. It involves women with vaginal bleeding in early pregnancy receiving treatment in the form of acupuncture or supportive care until 12 gestational weeks.
