目的观察艾灸治疗青春期女大学生原发性痛经的临床疗效。方法将60例原发性痛经患者随机分为治疗组和对照组,每组30例。治疗组采用艾灸关元穴治疗,对照组采用艾灸三阴交穴治疗。治疗3个月经周期后观察两组治疗前后临床症状评分,比较两组临床疗效。结果两组治疗后临床症状评分与同组治疗前比较,差异均具有统计学意义(P<0.01)。治疗组治疗后临床症状评分与对照组比较,差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05)。治疗组总有效率为100.0%,对照组为93.3%,两组比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论艾灸是一种治疗原发性痛经的有效方法,艾灸不同穴位会产生不同影响。

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of moxibustion in treating primary dysmenorrhea in adolescent female undergraduates. Method Sixty patients with primary dysmenorrhea were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 30 in each group. The treatment group was intervened by moxibustion at Guanyuan （CV 4）, while the control group was by moxibustion at Sanyinjiao （SP 6）. The symptom score was observed before intervention and after 3 menstrual cycles, and the clinical efficacies were compared. Result The symptom score was changed significantly in both groups after intervention （P〈0.01）. After intervention, there was a significant difference in comparing the symptom score （P〈0.05）. The total effective rate was 100.0%in the treatment group versus 93.3% in the control group, and the difference was statistically insignificant （P〉0.05）. Conclusion Moxibustion is an effective approach in treating primary dysmenorrhea, and moxibustion at different points will produce different effects.
