Effects of Bushen Yiqi Huoxue Decoction in Treatment of Patients with Diminished Ovarian Reserve:A Randomized Controlled Trial
To explore the therapeutic effect of Bushen Yiqi Huoxue Decoction BYHD) in patients with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR).
Methods:
2
A total of 180 patients with DOR diagnosed from December 2013 to December 2014 were equally assigned into progynova and duphaston (E+D) group
Zuogui Pill group and BYHD group with 60 cases in each by computerized randomization. Patients received E+D
Zuogui Pill or BYHD for 12 months
respectively. Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)
luteinizing hormone (LH)
estradiol (E
2
)
anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH)
antral follicle count (AFC)
ovarian volume
endometrial thickness
and the resistance indices (RIs) of ovarian arteries and uterine arteries were observed before and after treatment.
Results:
2
Nine women (4 from the E+D group
3 from the Zuogui Pill group
and 2 from the BYHD group) withdrew from the study. After 6 months
Zuogui Pill and BYHD significantly decreased FSH and LH and increased endometrial thickness and AMH (all
P
<
0.01). BYHD also resulted in E
2
elevation (
P
<
0.05)
ovary enlargement (
P
<
0.05)
AFC increase (
P
<
0.01)
and RI of ovarian arteries decrease (
P
<
0.05). After 12 months
further improvements were observed in the Zuogui Pill and BYHD groups (all
P
<
0.01)
but BYHD showed better outcomes
with lower FSH
larger ovaries and a thicker endometrium compared with the Zuogui Pill group (all
P
<
0.01). However
E+D only significantly increased endometrial thickness (
P
<
0.01) and no significant improvements were observed in the RI of uterine arteries in the three groups.
Conclusions:
2
BYHD had a favorable therapeutic effect in patients with DOR by rebalancing hormone levels
promoting ovulation
and repairing the thin endometrium. The combination of tonifying Shen (Kidney)
benefiting qi and activating blood circulation may be a promising therapeutic strategy for DOR.
