Acupuncture for glucose and lipid metabolic disorders of polycystic ovarian syndrome: A systematic review protocol

<h4>Background</h4> Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common gynecological disease that is often accompanied by some metabolic abnormality such as insulin resistance and dyslipidemia. As a non-pharmacological therapy, acupuncture is widely used for the treatment of PCOS, but the effe...
