Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on oocyte quality in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) undergoing in-vitro-fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET).Method Totally 217 patients with PCOS undergoing IVF-ET were randomized into two groups by the random number table, 119 patients in an EA group and 98 in a control group. In addition to the long-term ovarian hyperstimulation given to the two groups, electroacupuncture was involved in the intervention in the EA group. The spindle, quality of eggs, and pregnancy result were observed and compared.Result The high-quality embryo rate was significantly higher in the EA group than the control group (P<0.05), and compared to the control group, the pregnancy rate was 8.36% higher in the EA group; it’s found that the number of eggs with spindle located between 11 and 1 o’clock was in a significant positive correlation with the level of E2 on the HCG administration day and the high-quality embryo rate (P<0.01); the EA group had a markedly higher ratio of eggs with spindle located between 11 and 1 o’clock compared to the control group (P<0.05); electroacupuncture markedly reduced the dosage and duration of using Gn in the PCOS patients (P<0.05). Conclusion It’s proven the relation between spindle and the quality of eggs; electroacupuncture can enhance the quality of eggs and the pregnancy rate in the PCOS patients.
