Abstract

|
|
Purpose: Adenomyosis is the disease caused by ingrowth of lining tissue into the uterine muscle. Final treatment of the disease is hysterectomy but there is a tendency to avoid surgical treatment if possible. And medication often results in relapse and it does not cure completely. This paper introduces the potential of oriental medical treatment for adenomyosis through a case study.
Methods: A 31-year-old female patient, suffered from pelvic pain and metrorrhagia, was diagnosed with adenomyosis and uterine myoma. She was put on oriental medical treatment in the ○○ Oriental Hospital for almost three months. We applied herb-medication, acupuncture and moxibustion.
Results: Overall condition including the symptoms was relieved after oriental medical treatment
Conclusion: Oriental medical treatment alleviates chronic pelvic pain and has an effect against adenomyosis.
