ABSTRACT
To investigate the curative effect of electroacupuncture on luteinized unruptured follicle syndrome(LUFS) and its mechanism. Methods:
Sixty LUFS patients were randomly allocated to treatment (electroacupuncture) group and control (hCG) group. The follicular condition and ovarian arterial flow under color Doppler ultrasonogaphy and a change in reproductive endocrine level were observed in the patients before and after treatments. The ovulation rates and pregnancy rates were compared between the two groups,and the mechanism was investigated.Results:
Both ovulation rate and pregnancy rate were significantly higher in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.01). There was a significant difference in the improvement in ovarian arterial flow between the treatment and control groups (P<0.01). The improvement in endocrine level was significantly more marked in the treatment group than in the control group(P<0.01).Conclusion:
Electroacupuncture has a good effect on luteinized unrupture follicle syndrome. Its mechanism may be related to the improvement in ovarian arterial blood supply and the regulation of endocrine level.
