Abstract

Objective:The purpose of this study is to identify the clinical effects of Chiljehyangbuhwan in the treatment of dysmenorrhea patients. Methods : We studied fifty patients who visited Kyung Hee University Oriental Medical Center from July, 2004 to August, 2004. Women with organic disease such as ut. myoma, ov. cyst and pelvic inflammatory disease were excluded from this study. We treated them with Chiljehyangbuhwan for one menstrual cycle. The severity of dysmenorrhea were measured by MVRS (Multidimensional Verbal Rating scale), VRS (Verbal Rating scale) and VAS (Visual Analog Scale). Results : Chiljehyangbuhwan significantly decreased the severity of dysmenorrhea. Furthermore Chiljehyangbuhwan had an effect on dysmenorrhea for next menstrual cycle without taking. Chiljehyangbuhwan did not show hepatic and renal virulence. Conclusion : This study shows that Chiljehyangbuhwan has remarkable effects on dysmenorrhea patients and that effects continue to next menstrual cycle without taking medicine.
