Abstract
To explore the effects of the combined therapy of heat sensitive moxibustion and acupoint injection on endometrial receptivity of hypdrosalphinx infertility in the patients after hysteroscopy and laparoscopy on the base of routine post-operative anti-inflammation. A total of 210 patients of hypdrosalphinx infertility after hysteroscopy and laparoscopy were divided into a combined therapy group, a heat sensitive moxibustion group and a control group, 70 cases in each one according to the random number table. In the control group, the intravenous drip of cefoxitin sodium was adopted, and the anti-inflammation treatment was given for 1 week after operation. In the heat sensitive moxibustion group, on the basis of the treatment as the control group, the heat sensitive moxibustion was applied after vaginal bleeding stopped. The acupoints were Yaoyangguan (GV 3), Guanyuan (CV 4), Qihai (CV 6), Shenshu (BL 23), Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Yinlingquan (SP 9) and Zigong (EX-CA1). The acupoints were modified according to the different syndromes. In the combined therapy group, on the basis of the regimen as the heat sensitive moxibustion group, after vaginal bleeding stopped, the acupoint injection was given alternatively at bilateral Tiangong (extra, 1.0 cm inferior and bilateral to the cervix) with lidocaine 1 mL, amikacin 2 mL and salvia injection 2 mL. The treatment was given once every day, the treatment for 10 times as one course and a total of 3 courses were required. The endometrial type, thickness, uterine arterial plusatility index (PI) and resistance index (RI) were observed in the patients of each group. After treatment, the numbers of A-type endometrial type in the combined therapy group and the heat sensitive moxibustion group were remarkably higher than those of the control group [57.1% (40/7) vs 31.4% (22/70), 50.0% (35/70) vs 31.4% (22/70), both P<0.05]. The endometrial thickness after treatment was all increased as compared with that before treatment in each group (all P<0.05). The increasing degree in the combined therapy group was better than either the heat sensitive moxibustion group or the control group (both P<0.05). The improvement in the heat sensitive moxibustion group was superior to the control group (P<0.05). PI and RI in the combination group and PI in the control group were decreased after treatment (all P<0.05). The improvements of PI and RI in the combination group were better than those in the heat moxibustion group (both P<0.05), which were superior to those in the control group (all P<0.05). In the patients of hypdrosalphinx infertility after hysteroscopy and laparoscopy, the combined therapy of heat sensitive moxibustion and acupoint injection increases endometrial thickness, reduces uterine arterial resistance and improves endometrial receptivity.
