Method: Firstly, we searched and collected the literatures from last three decades in CNKI, Wanfang and VIP databases, which are about classical prescriptions treating endometriosis. Then, by screening all the literatures, we obtained the clinical research literatures and individual case reports. Finally, we went through the internal quality of the two categories of literatures to get the dominant prescriptions. Results: 22 Shanghan Zabing Lun prescriptions have been used in the treatment of endometriosis. According to the clinical research and case literatures, Guizhi Fuling Wan is the prime prescription to treat endometriosis with high quality and high frequency. Conclusions: Through evidence-based medical research and evaluation of evidence, it can be seen that treatment of endometriosis presents a certain tendency that Guizhi Fuling Wan, Wenjing Decoction and Dahuang Zhechong Wan have good clinical effect treating endometriosis and their syndromes are well matched with the symptoms of endometriosis in the present clinical environment.展开更多
