ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) combined with pill on clinical symptoms, levels of serum sex hormone and Th2 cytokines in patients of decreased ovarian reserve function (DOR) with liver-kidney deficiency, and to compare the efficacy between EA combined with pill and pill alone.@*METHODS@#Sixty patients with DOR were randomly divided into an observation group (30 cases, 2 cases dropped off) and a control group (30 cases, 1 case dropped off). The patients in the control group were treated with pill, 1 pill each time, 3 times a day. Based on the treatment of the control group, the patients in the observation group were additionally treated with acupuncture at Guanyuan (CV 4), Zhongji (CV 3), Guilai (ST 29), Zigong (EX-CA 1), Zusanli (ST 36), Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Taixi (KI 3) and Taichong (LR 3); EA was applied at bilateral Zusanli (ST 36) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6), with continuous wave, in frequency of 20 Hz and current intensity of 1 to 4 mA, for 20 min. The treatment was given 3 times a week. All the patients terminated treatment during menstrual period, and the treatment was given for 3 continuous menstrual cycles. The menstrual condition score and systemic symptom score were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. The levels of serum sex hormones on 2nd to 3rd day of menstruation, including follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and estradiol (E2), and the serums levels of interleukin (IL) -4 and IL-10 secreted by Th2 cytokines were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.@*RESULTS@#After the treatment, the menstruation condition scores and systemic symptom scores in the two groups were reduced (<0.05), and the scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (<0.05). After the treatment, the levels of serum FSH, LH and FSH/LH were reduced (<0.05), and the E2 levels were increased in the two groups (<0.05), and the levels of FSH, LH in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (<0.05), and the E2 level was higher than that in the control group (<0.05). After the treatment, the levels of serum IL-4 and IL-10 in the two groups were increased (<0.05), and the levels of IL-4 and IL-10 in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#EA combined with pill could significantly improve menstruation, systemic symptoms and serum sex hormone levels in patients of decreased ovarian reserve function with liver-kidney deficiency, which may restore ovarian function by up-regulating the expression of Th2 cytokines.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To compare the efficacy differences between ginger-separated moxibustion atpoints combined withformula andformula alone on patients with decreased ovarian reserve function.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Fifty patients of decreased ovarian reserve function were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 25 cases in each one. The patients in the observation group were treated with ginger-separated moxibustion atpoints combined withformula; the moxibustion was given for 1.5 h, once every seven days, and no treatment was given during menstrual period. The patients in the control group were treated withformula. One-month treatment was taken as one treatment course, and totally three courses were given. The change of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol (E), anti-mullerian hormone (AMH), antral follicle count (AFC), peak systolic velocity (PSV), resistance index (RI) were observed before and after treatment in the two groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>After treatment, the FSH, FSH/LH and RI were significantly lowered, but the E, AFC, PSV were significantly increased in the two groups (all<0.05); the FSH, FSH/LH and Ein the observation group were lower and AFC was higher than those in the control group (all<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The ginger-separated moxibustion atpoints combined withformula are superior toformula alone in improving ovarian reserve function.</p>
