Abstract
Introduction. The study of effective and safe combined methods of conservative treatment of idiopathic male infertility is of great interest.Objective. To evaluate the effectiveness of the combined use of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) in the infrared (IR) spectrum and bioregulatory therapy with complex prostate peptides on the semen parameters and sperm DNA fragmentation (SDNAF) in men with idiopathic infertility.Materials & methods. The study is based on the results of examination and treatment of 97 men with idiopathic infertility. Prior to the start of treatment, all patients were divided into three groups by randomization. Patients in group 1 (n = 34) underwent a course of LLLT in the IR spectrum consisting of 10 procedures q.o.d. Patients in group 2 (n = 31) were prescribed complex prostate peptides Supp. Prostatilen® AC (30 + 180 mg) PR q.h.s. FXD, with a repeat of the course of treatment after 5 days. Patients in group 3 (n = 32) underwent combined treatment: LLLT sessions in the IR spectrum (10 procedures q.o.d.) and a course of Supp. Prostatilen® AC (30 + 180 mg) PR q.h.s. FXD, with a repeat of the course of treatment with peptides according to the same scheme after 5 days. Control examination of patients in all groups was carried out two months after the end of treatment.Results. As a result of treatment of patients in groups 1, 2, and 3, a significant improvement in the main semen parameters, a decrease in the grade of pathological SDNAF, an increase in serum total and free testosterone concentration (p < 0.05) were observed. A comparative statistical analysis of the results obtained in three groups of patients showed that the combined treatment of patients of group 3, who were prescribed a course of LLLT in combination with complex prostate peptides Supp. Prostatilen® AC, was significantly more effective in improving concentration (p < 0.01) and progressive sperm motility (p < 0.01), as well as a decrease in the grade of pathological SDNAF (p < 0.05), than in groups 1 and 2.Conclusion. Combined therapy that includes complex prostate peptides and LLLT in the IR spectrum improves the main semen parameters and reduces the grade of pathological SDNAF in men with idiopathic infertility.
