Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Tongyuan acupuncture combined with Bushen Huoxue Prescription in the treatment of obese polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods Sixty-eight patients with obese PCOS were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group,with 34 patients in each group.The control group was given conventional western medicine treatment,and the observation group was given Tongyuan acupuncture combined with Bushen Huoxue Prescription on the basis of the treatment of the control group for a total of 6 menstrual cycles.After 6 months of treatment,the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated,and the menstrual flow and the number of menstrual cycles of the two groups were observed,and the changes in the traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndromes,as well as the changes in the serum levels of luteinising hormone(LH),testosterone(T),oestradiol(E2),and prolactin(PRL)were compared between the two groups before and after the treatment.Results(1)The total effective rate of the observation group was 97.06%(33/34),and that of the control group was 82.35%(28/34).The efficacy of the observation group was superior to that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).(2)After treatment,the menstrual flow of the observation group was significantly greater than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The number of menstrual periods in the observation group was not statistically significant compared with the control group(P＞0.05).(3)After treatment,the TCM syndrome scores of patients in the two groups were significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the observation group was significantly superior to the control group in improving TCM syndrome scores,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).(4)After treatment,the LH,T,E2 and PRL levels of patients in the two groups were significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the observation group was significantly superior to the control group in improving LH,T,E2 and PRL levels,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Tongyuan acupuncture combined with Bushen Huoxue Prescription for the treatment of obese PCOS can significantly improve the clinical symptoms of the patients,can effectively regulate the level of sex hormones of the patients,and the therapeutic efficacy is remarkable.
