Abstract:
Objective and Methods: Thirty-three patients with peri-menopausal syndrome were treated by electroacupuncture of points Guanyuan (CV 4) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6) according to the principle of regulating and tonifying the Thoroughfare and Conception vessels, and the curative effects were analyzed.Results and Conclusion: The results showed that there was a significant difference in the clinical symptoms of the patients with peri-menopausal syndrome between pre- and post-electroacupuncture of points Guanyuan (CV 4) and Sanyinjiao (CV 6) and the clinical effective rate reached 93.9%. The measurement of sexual hormones showed E2, FSH and LH levels were better after treatment than before treatment in the patients with peri-menopausal syndrome.
