ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To discuss the effect of Ethinylestradiol and cyproterone acetate tablet combined with metformin on ovulation induction of patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome(PCOS). METHODS:184 PCOS patients were randomly divided into control group(92 cases)and observation group(92 cases). Control group orally received 1 Ethinylestradiol and cyproterone ac-etate tablet in 5 d of menstruation,once a day,it stopped after 21 d,the next cycle of treatment was started on the 5th of with-drawal bleeding. Observation group additionally received 3 Metformin tablet,once a day,without drug withdrawal during menstrua-tion,and lasted for 3 menstrual cycles. After 3 menstrual cycles,all patients received ovulation induction treatment [(50-100 mg clomiphene was orally given from the 5th day of the 4th menstrual cycle,for 5 days,or 75-150 U postmenopausal gonadotropin by intramuscular injection,when the dominant follicle diameter was(19.0±2.0)mm,10 000 U human chorionic gonadotropin(HCG) was intramuscularly injected,the ovulation was continuously monitored and whether there was ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS)was observed]. Body mass index(BMI),follicle estrogen(FSH),luteinizing hormone(LH),prolactin(PRL),estradiol (E2)and testosterone(T)before and after treatment,fasting plasma glucose(FPG),fasting insulin(FINS),insulin resistance in-dex(HOMA-IR),pregnancy rate,ovulation rate and the incidences of OHSS and adverse reactions in 2 groups were observed.RE-SULTSBefore treatment,there were no significant differences in the BMI,FSH,LH,PRL,E2,T,FPG,FINS and HOMA-IR between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treatment,BMI,LH,PRL,E2,T,FPG,FINS and HOMA-IR in observation group and LH, E2 and FINS in control group were significantly lower than before,and BMI,PRL,E2,T,FPG,FINS and HOMA-IR in observa-tion group were lower than control group,the differences were statistically significant(P0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Ethinylestradiol and cyproterone acetate combined with metfor-min can effectively improve insulin resistance of POCS patients,recovery sex hormone secretion,promote ovulation and improve pregnancy rate,with good safety.
