ABSTRACT

Objective:

To explore the clinical effect of the treatment of menstrual migraine (MM) by acupuncture taichong and yongquan points.

Methods:

We selected 90 patients with confirmed diagnosis of MM from January 2017 to January 2018 and randomly divided them into three groups acupuncture treatment group, drug therapy, and acupuncture + medication group, with 30 cases in each group. In the acupuncture treatment group, the patients were treated by using acupuncture taichong and yongquan points. Those in the drug treatment group received oral medication of fluoroguirizine hydrochloride capsules. The combined therapy group received both body acupuncture treatment and oral fluoroguirizine hydrochloride capsule treatment. We compared the total headache score, the migraine specific quality of life questionnaire (MSQ), plasma calcitonin gene-associated peptide (CGRP) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) before and after treatment. The clinical efficacy of the three groups was compared.

Results:

Before treatment, the headache score, MSQ, CGRP and 5-HT in the three groups did not differ (P>0.05). After treatment, the headache score, MSQ, CGRP and 5-HT of the three groups had decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the acupuncture treatment group and the drug therapy, the headache score, MSQ, CGRP and 5-HT of the three groups decreased in the acupuncture + drug therapy group (P<0.05). The total effective rate of the combination group was significantly higher than that of the other two groups (P<0.05).

Conclusion:

The clinical effect of acupuncture taichong and yongquan points on the treatment of menstrual migraine is significant. It can significantly improve the patients' headache symptoms and lift their quality of life.
