Abstract:Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of warming needle moxibustion for secondary dysmenorrhea in cold coagulation and blood stasis type adenomyosis. Methods A total of 52 patients with secondary dysmenorrhea to adenomyosis in cold coagulation and blood stasis type who were treated in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine from January to May 2022, and they were divided into control group and treatment group according to random number table method, with 26 cases in each group. The control group was treated with Shaofu Zhuyu Capsules, the treatment group was treated with warming needle moxibustion on the basis of the control group. Each course of treatment was seven days, all patients were treated for three courses. The scores of dysmenorrhea degree, traditional Chinese medicine symptoms, visual analog scale (VAS), and endometriosis quality of life assessment (EHP-5) were compared between the two groups. The clinical effect of the treatment group was better than that of the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in dysmenorrhea degree scores and traditional Chinese medicine symptom scores between the two groups at each time point after treatment (P<0.05). The scores of dysmenorrhea degree and traditional Chinese medicine symptoms in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group at each time point, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). After three months of treatment, VAS and EHP-5 scores in two groups were lower than those before treatment, and those of the treatment group were lower than the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Warming needle moxibustion is effective in treating secondary dysmenorrhea in cold coagulation and blood stasis type adenomyosis. It can relieve pain and correct patients’ cold constitution, and the improvement degree is better than traditional Chinese patent medicine treatment.
