Ear acupressure for sleep problems in perimenopause
Part of Mental health, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether ear acupressure (pressing small seeds or magnets on points in the ear) can improve sleep for women going through perimenopause. If it works, it could be a drug-free option to help you rest better.
