OBJECTIVE: To report the usefulness of electroacupuncture (EA) for the management of menorrhagia due to submucous uterine fibroid.
DESIGN: Case report.
SETTING: University hospital.
PATIENT(S): A 48-year-old woman with a symptomatic submucous uterine fibroid, who presented with severe menorrhagia.
INTERVENTION(S): Electroacupuncture.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Doppler ultrasonographic assessment of uterine blood flow and number of pads used during menorrhagia.
RESULT(S): Doppler ultrasound revealed decreased blood flow of the uterine artery with EA stimulation. With repetitive sessions of EA fewer pads were used during menorrhagia.
CONCLUSION(S): We present the first human case in which decreasing uterine artery blood flow with EA improved menorrhagia due to uterine fibroma. Electroacupuncture could be a useful, alternative, and relatively noninvasive tool for the management of fibroids with menorrhagia as a severe complaint.
