Abstract

This study is a pilot systematic review on the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture for menstrual headaches. Finally, seven documents were included and analyzed according to the protocol. When comparing the treatment effect with total effectiveness as an outcome variable, we found that acupuncture treatment has a therapeutic benefit compared to Western medicine treatment. In addition, there were no reports of adverse events caused by acupuncture treatment. However, it is difficult to conclude the effectiveness of acupuncture treatment due to the small sample size and a sufficient risk of bias in the included studies.
