Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Pain disappearance rate after 12 weeks of treatment
The pain disappearance referred to the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score becoming 0-1 points, and was no longer greater than or equal to 2 points at any subsequent evaluation. The pain disappearance rate was defined as the proportion of patients who achieved a pain disappearance after treatment.
Secondary outcomes
Pain disappearance rate after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment
The pain disappearance referred to the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score becoming 0-1 points, and was no longer greater than or equal to 2 points at any subsequent evaluation. The pain disappearance rate was defined as the proportion of patients who achieved a pain disappearance after treatment.
Change of weekly average Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score from baseline after 12 weeks of treatment
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate pelvic pain degree. The VAS score ranged from 0 to 10, and a higher score represented greater pain intensity. The average VAS value for a week was calculated by dividing the sum of the scores for each day of the week by the number of days the score was recorded.

McCormick Scale
The McCormack scale was used to score the patient's physical signs. The total score is 36 points, rated from twelve aspects including uterine tenderness (divided into four quadrants), abdominal tenderness or rebound pain (divided into four quadrants), left or right adnexal tenderness, uterine tenderness, and cervical lifting and swinging pain. The scoring criteria was as following: no pain is 0 points; Mild pain without facial expression changes and muscle tension is 1 point; Pain accompanied by facial expressions and muscle tension is 2 points; Pain drama is 3 points.
