Abstract

Abstract Objective The objective of this study was to explore the clinical effects of Bushen Culuan prescription on infertility due to decreased ovarian reserve of kidney deficiency and liver depression pattern. Methods Totally 100 infertile patients with ovarian hypofunction treated from October 2019 to January 2022 were selected and divided into the observation group and the control group by a random number table. The control group was treated with estrogen sequential therapy, and the observation group was treated with Bushen Culuan prescription. The clinical efficacy, sex hormone levels including (follicle-stimulating hormone [FSH], luteinizing hormone [LH], and estradiol [E2]), ovarian function, ovarian blood flow status (peak systolic velocity [PSV], antral follicle count [AFC], arterial pulse index [PI], and resistance index [RI]), and pregnancy outcome in the two groups were compared and analyzed. Results The total effective rate of the observation group (96.00%) was significantly higher than that of the control group (80.00%). The difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05). Before treatment, there was no significant difference in sex hormone levels (FSH, LH, E2, and FSH/LH), ovarian function (number of primary follicles, number of dominant follicles, ovulation number, and endometrial thickness), and ovarian blood flow (PSV, RI, PI, and AFC) between the two groups (p > 0.05). After treatment, the levels of serum hormones FSH, LH, E2, and FSH/LH decreased significantly in both groups. The number of primary follicles, dominant follicles, and ovulation increased significantly, and the thickness of endometrium decreased significantly; the indexes of PSV, RI, and AFC of ovarian blood flow increased significantly, and the PI index decreased significantly. The levels of each index in the observation group were better than those in the control group (p < 0.05). In the control group, 32 cases were pregnant within 1 year after treatment, and the pregnancy rate was 64.00%; 21 cases in the observation group were pregnant within 1 year after treatment, and the pregnancy rate was 42.00%; the pregnancy rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2 = 4.014, p = 0.045 < 0.05). Conclusion Bushen Culuan prescription has a definite effect on infertility due to ovarian hypofunction. The action mechanism may involve multicomponent and multitarget stimulation to improve patients' ovarian function, regulate the level of sex hormones, and improve the pregnancy outcome.
