Abstract:
Objective:To explore relation of TCM syndrome types in patient with sexual hormones of hyperplasia of mammary glands,so as to establish objective indexes of TCM syndrome types of hyperplasia of mammary glands.Methods:112 cases of hyperplasia of mammary glands were divided into 3 types:stagnation of liver-Qi,intermingled phlegm and blood stasis,disharmany of thoroughfare vessel and conception vessel.Level of estradiol(E_2),progestin(PT),testosterone(TT),prolactin(PRL),follicle- stimulating hormone(FSH)and luteotropic hormone(LH)during ovulatory period in the patients were determined.The relation of hormone level with TCM syndrome types was analyzed.Results:Level of LH and E_2 decreased,PRL and PT increased and level of TT and FSH did not significantly change during ovulatory period in the patient of hyperplasia of mammary glands.LH and E_2 level in the patients with stagnation of liver-Qi or intermingled phlegm and blood stasis was significantly lower than normal values,and the level of PRL and PT was significantly higher than that of normal values.The level of LH and E_2 was also lower than the normal value in the patient with disharmany of thoroughfare vessel and conception vessel,but the level of FSH was significantly higher than normal value.Conclusion:The patient of hyperplasia of mammary glands during ovulatory period manifests endocrine dysfunction,and the patients with different TCM syndrome are different in secretion of sexual hormones; Changes of sexual hormones can be used as objective indexes of TCM syndrome types and basis of clinical medicinal application.
