Abstract:
Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a condition characterized by menstrual disturbance, subfertility, and estrogen deficiency symptoms. Women with POI have a small chance of natural conception, which may be even smaller when complicated with unilateral ovarian due to reduction of the ovarian follicular reserve. In China, acupuncture has been widely used to treat POI and POI-induced infertility, and studies have shown that acupuncture is helpful for improving ovarian function. Thread-embedding therapy is a method of acupuncture treatment development and extension, which can make the acupuncture effect last. In this article, we report a patient diagnosed with POI after unilateral oophorectomy (UO) who spontaneously conceived after thread-embedding therapy. Thread-embedding therapy may improve ovarian function in patients with POI, thereby providing a treatment strategy for infertility in patients with POI. This case report was written in accordance with the CARE guidelines.
摘要:
过早卵巢功能不全(POI)是一种以月经失调为特征的疾病,不孕不育,和雌激素缺乏症状。有POI的女性自然受孕的机会很小,由于卵巢卵泡储备减少,当并发单侧卵巢时可能会更小。在中国,针灸已被广泛用于治疗POI和POI引起的不孕症,研究表明,针灸有助于改善卵巢功能。埋线疗法是针灸治疗发展和延伸的一种方法,这可以使针灸效果持久。在这篇文章中,我们报告了1例单侧卵巢切除术(UO)后被诊断为POI的患者,该患者经埋线治疗后自发受孕.埋线疗法可以改善POI患者的卵巢功能,从而为POI患者的不孕症提供治疗策略。本病例报告是根据CARE指南编写的。
