Abstract:
AIM To investigate the clinical effects of Supplemented Jiao'ai Decoction combined with warm acupuncture and moxibustion on patients with endometriosis due to Congealing Cold with Blood Stasis.METHODS Eighty-six patients were randomly assigned into control group(43 cases)for 3-menstrual cycle intervention of warm acupuncture and moxibustion,and observation group(43 cases)for 3-menstrual cycle intervention of both Supplemented Jiao'ai Decoction and warm acupuncture and moxibustion.The changes in clinical effects,TCM syndrome scores,dysmenorrhea degree indices(VAS score,PGE2,PGF2α),hemodynamic indices(RI,PI),sexhormones(E2,FSH,LH),inflammatory factors(IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α)and incidence of adverse reactions were detected.RESULTS The observation group demonstrated higher total effective rate than the control group(P＜0.05).After the treatment,the two groups displayed decreased TCM syndrome scores,dysmenorrhea degree indices,hemodynamic indices,sexhormones and inflammatory factors(P＜0.05),especially for the observation group(P＜0.05).No significant difference in incidence of adverse reactions was found between the two groups(P＞0.05).CONCLUSION For the patients with endometriosis due to Congealing Cold with Blood Stasis,Supplemented Jiao'ai Decoction combined with warm acupuncture and moxibustion can safely and effectively regulate sexhormone levels,endometrial hemodynamics,inhibit inflammatory responses,and alleviate dysmenorrhea symptoms.
