Conclusions The efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine treatment of PMO limited evidence and need for more high-quality research in order to increase the strength of the evidence. The aspects of the growing number of clinical research papers, but the low proportion of randomized controlled trials, research design, so as to be further improved.
