The skin surface microcirculation of conception vessel, governor vessel and thoroughfare vessel in patients with primary dysmenorrhea
To observe the skin surface microcirculation of acupoints of conception vessel
governor vessel and thoroughfare vessel in patients with primary dysmenorrhea using laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI)
and provide acupoint selection basis of acupuncture-moxibustion for primary dysmenorrhea.
Methods
2
Ninety-nine healthy female college students with regular menstrual cycles (normal group) and 94 female college students with primary dysmenorrhea (dysmenorrhea group) were recruited. Before menstrual period
on the first day of menstruation
and on the third day after menstruation
LSCI was used to observe the surface microcirculation at the abdominal acupoints of conception vessel
i. e. Yinjiao (CV 7)
Qihai (CV 6)
Shimen (CV 5)
Guanyuan (CV 4)
Zhongji (CV 3) and Qugou (CV 2)
acupoints of thoroughfare vessel
i. e. Huangshu (KI 16)
Zhongzhu (KI 15)
Siman (KI 14)
Qixue (KI 13)
Dahe (KI 12)
Henggu (KI 11) and acupoints of lumbosacral region of governor vessel
i. e. Xuanshu (GV 5)
Mingmen (GV 4)
Yaoyangguan (GV 3)
Yaoshu (GV 2) as well as two non-acupoints.
Results
2
Before menstrual period
there was no significant difference in the surface blood perfusion of the acupoints between the dysmenorrhea group and the normal group (
P
>
0.05). On the first day of menstruation
the surface blood perfusion of Xuanshu (GV 5)
Mingmen (GV 4)
Yaoyangguan (GV 3) and right Huangshu (KI 16) in the dysmenorrhea group was higher than that in the normal group (
P
<
0.05
P
<
0.01). On the third day after menstruation
the surface blood perfusion of the right Henggu (KI 11) in the dysmenorrhea group was lower than that in the normal group (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion
2
In patients with primary dysmenorrhea
on the first day of menstruation
the surface blood perfusion of Xuanshu (GV 5)
Mingmen (GV 4)
Yaoyangguan (GV 3) of governor vessel
and the right Huangshu (KI 16) of thoroughfare vessel is increased
while on the third day after menstruation
the surface blood perfusion of the right Henggu (KI 11) of thoroughfare vessel is decreased. These findings might provide a basis for acupoint selection in the acupuncture-moxibustion treatment of primary dysmenorrhea.
