Objectives: The purpose of this study is to report the effect of Korean medical treatment in case of irregular menstruation (amenorrhea, oligomenorrhea) patients due to Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). There are some case reports about effectiveness of the Korean medical treatment to this disease, but cases are still deficient. And this case has significance for ascertaining PCOS patients¡¯ ovulation.
Methods: 6 Amenorrhea or oligomenorrhea patients with PCOS were treated with Korean medical treatment (herbal medicine, moxibustion, acupuncture) at least 3 months. We estimated the effects of treatments through the change of menstrual pattern. Also, we checked follicles by ultrasonography for ovulation.
Results: All patients recovered ovulatory menstrual cycle after taking Korean medical treatment for 3~9 months.
Conclusions: These cases show the Korean medical treatment is effective on PCOS patients with irregular menstruation by recovering ovulatory menstrual cycle.
