Abstract:
To discuss the acupuncture and moxibustion thoughts of diagnosis and treatment for secondary dysmenorrhea of adenomyosis on the basis of disease location and pathogenesis. In clinic, we take the "principle, method, prescription, acupoint and technic" as the outline, paying attention to identify disease location and establishing the method of "promoting blood to remove stasis, regulating thoroughfare vessel and conception vessel" on the basis of the pathogenesis of "stasis obstructing uterus, disharmony of thoroughfare vessel and conception vessel". The prescription combines "dredging" with "conditioning", and the emphasis should be different in different periods. In menstrual period, we put emphasis on activating the circulation ofand blood as well as clearing meridians to relieve pain and choose the acupoints on the spleen meridian of foot-and experimental points, such as Diji (SP 8), Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Ciliao (BL 32), Shiqizhui (EX-B 8). In the intermenstrual period, we regulate theand blood of thoroughfare vessel and conception vessel, and the function of viscera. The acupoints for the disease root are mainly at spleen meridian of foot-and conception vessel, such as Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Guanyuan (CV 4), Zigong (EX-CA 1), Zusanli (ST 36). And the reinforcing and reducing technic are applied accordingly.
