Abstract：Stress urinary incontinence(SUI)is a common urinary system disorder in women.Traditional treatment methods mainly include pelvic floor muscle training,biofeedback therapy,and oral medication,which have certain limitations.Electroacupuncture,as a traditional Chinese medicine therapy combined with modern medical techniques,has demonstrated good efficacy in treating SUI,though its mechanisms have not yet reached clinical consensus.This paper introduces the devel-opment and advantages of electroacupuncture therapy,elaborates on its mechanisms in treating female SUI-including neural regulation,muscle strengthening and regeneration,and microcirculation improvement-and analyzes its current clinical appli-cation status.It emphasizes the need to develop personalized treatment plans,providing new directions for clinical diagnosis,treatment,and basic research.
