Chronic prostatitis (CP) refers to a disease characterized by local pain and discomfort, urination discomfort, and quality of life. Acupuncture (ACU) and moxibustion are widely used in the treatment of CP, and the curative effect is satisfactory. Several systematic reviews (SRs) and meta-analyzes have reported the effectiveness of ACU and moxibustion in treating patients with CP. However, the evidence is not systematically integrated. This overview aims to integrate and evaluate the reliability of these SRs and the evidence generated from the ACU and moxibustion for CP meta-analysis.
