Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Chinese medicine sequential therapy combined with Clomiphene in the treatment of ovulatory disorder infertility(ODI),and to observe the effects of the combined therapy on the endometrial thickness,ovarian diameter,ovulation rate and pregnancy rate of the patients.Methods A total of 120 patients with ODI admitted to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the 7th People's Hospital of Zhengzhou from July 2021 to August 2023 were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group,with 60 patients in each group.The two groups were treated with Clomiphene,and additionally the observation group was treated with Chinese medicine sequential therapy of"nourishing yin and enriching blood,warming kidney to resolve phlegm and unblock collaterals,and tonifying kidney and strengthening spleen"in accordance with the menstrual cycle.Three menstrual cycles constituted a course of treatment.Before and after treatment,the changes in the traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores of the two groups were observed.After treatment for three menstrual cycles,the clinical efficacy,endometrial thickness,follicle diameter,ovulation rate,pregnancy rate,incidence of biphasic basal body temperature(BBT),and the incidence of adverse reactions after in the two groups were compared.Results(1)After three menstrual cycles of treatment,the total effective rate of the observation group was 96.67％(58/60)and that of the control group was 83.33％(50/60),and the comparison between the two groups showed that the efficacy of the observation group was significantly superior to that of the control group,the difference being statistically significant(x2=5.926,P＜0.05).(2)After three menstrual cycles of treatment,the TCM scores of patients in both groups were decreased significantly compared with those before treatment(P＜0.01),and the decrease of the scores in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.01).(3)After three menstrual cycles of treatment,the follicle diameter of the observation group was longer than that of the control group,and the incidence of biphasic BBT[60.00％(36/60)],ovulation rate[63.33％(38/60)],and pregnancy rate[25.00％(15/60)]were higher than those of the control group,which were 31.67％(19/60),41.67％(25/60),and 10.00％(6/60),respectively.The differences of the above four indicators between the two groups were statistically significant(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).However,the differences of endometrial thickness and the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion Chinese medicine sequential therapy combined with Clomiphene exerts certain efficacy in treating patients with ODI,which can effectively relieve clinical symptoms,improve the BBT conditions,enhance the ovulation rate and pregnancy rate,with high safety.
