Objective: To observe the clinical effects of acupoint injection therapy plus massage on primary dysmenorrhea (PD).
Methods: Ninety patients with PD were randomly divided into a treatment group or a control group, 45 cases in each group. The treatment group was treated by injection of Vitamin K3into Sanyinjiao (SP 6) plus massage on Diji (SP 8). The control group was treated by oral administration of Ibuprofen sustained-release capsule. Before and after the treatment, visual analogue scale (VAS) was adopted to assess pain degree of the patients. The therapeutic effects were observed after continuous treatment of three cycles of menstruation.
Results: After treatment, VAS scores were obviously decreased in both groups and the differences were statistically significant (allP<0.05). The difference in VAS score after treatment was more significantin the treatment group than that in the control group (P<0.01). The total effective rate was significantl higher in the treatment group than that in the control group (P<0.05).
Conclusion: Acupoint injection therapy plus massage for PD is effective and better than simple oral administration of Ibuprofen sustained-release capsule.
