Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of modified Yulinzhu Formula combined with plum-blossom needle tapping acupuncture in treating kidney-yang deficiency type of ovulatory dysfunction infertility(ODI).Methods A total of 100 ODI patients diagnosed at Hengshui Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between January 2023 and January 2024 were enrolled and randomly divided into an observation group and a control group using a random number table,with 50 cases in each group.The control group received conventional western medical treatment,while the observation group received additional oral administration of modified Yulinzhu Formula and plum-blossom needle tapping acupuncture therapy.Treatment was administered for one menstrual cycle as a course,with three consecutive courses completed.After three months,clinical efficacy was assessed by comparing traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores,ovulation rate,pregnancy rate,proportion of type A endometrium,ovarian volume,antral follicle count(AFC),and adverse reactions between groups.Results(1)After treatment,the scores of TCM syndromes in the two groups were significantly improved(P<0.05),and the improvement in the observation group was superior to that in the control group,the difference being significant(P<0.05).(2)The total effective rate was 90.00%(45/50)in the observation group and 72.00%(36/50)in the control group.The curative effect of the observation group was superior to that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).(3)The ovulation rate,pregnancy rate and the proportion of type A endometrium in the observation group were significantly superior to those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).(4)After treatment,the ovarian volume and the number of antral follicles in the two groups were significantly improved(P<0.05),and the improvement in the ovarian volume and the number of antral follicles in the observation group was superior to that in the control group,the difference being significant(P<0.05).(5)The incidence of adverse reactions was 8.00%(4/50)in the observation group and 24.00%(12/50)in the control group.The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Modified Yulinzhu Formula combined with plum-blossom needle tapping acupuncture effectively improves clinical symptoms,enhances ovulation/pregnancy rates,increases type A endometrium,optimizes ovarian volume and AFC,and reduces adverse reactions in kidney-yang deficiency ODI patients.
