The universe covered all the patients diagnosed with this disease, referred from the provincial consultation of the Teaching Provincial Gyneco-obstetric Hospital Dr. Julio R. Alfonso Medina of Matanzas. There it were included the patients aged 18 years who wanted to participate in the research. A non probabilistic sample composed by 100 patients was chosen. The traditional clinical record was filled out and the patients were diagnosed according to Chinese Traditional Medicine.
