Acupuncture??
Hey everyone, I’m 19 and have moderate Ulcerative Colitis. No treatments have worked for me yet so my doctor wants to put me on Humira but I am trying to try everything before I have to go on it. I was wondering if anyone has tried acupuncture to relieve their symptoms? Thanks!

Hi
,
I'm so glad you've reached out here! I'm so sorry that no treatments have helped for your UC thus far.
I wanted to share this article, written by our team, that has some insight on acupuncture for IBD.

I am hopeful that some other community members will also comment with their experiences!

Thank you very much 😀
Hi
. I did try acupuncture, but it didn't help my symptoms. IBD is a very individual thing though, so what works for one may not necessarily work for another anyway.
