Abstract
ObjectiveTo observe the efficacy of tedrogesterone tablets combined with clomiphene on polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS) with infertility, and investigate its influence on serum levels of apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio(ApoB/ApoA1), anti-mullerian hormone(AMH), advanced glycation end products(AGEs).
MethodsFrom January 2017 to December 2018, 80 PCOS patients with infertility who met the criteria were screened and randomly divided into control group and observation group according to the digital table, with 40 cases in each group.The control group received clomiphene 50 mg/d, qd, and for 5 consecutive days.In the observation group, on the basis of the control group, tedrosterone tablet was added, 10 mg/time and qd, and continuously administered for 21 days.The two groups were treated for 4 menstrual cycles.The ovarian volume, follicular development, pregnancy rate, hormone levels, the endometrial receptivity, and serum ApoB/ApoA1, AMH, AGEs levels were compared between the two groups.
ResultsAfter treatment, the ovarian volume[(5.62±0.87)cm3]of the observation group was significantly smaller than that of the control group[(7.94±1.03)cm3](t=7.722, P=0.000), and the maximum diameter of follicles in the observation group[(13.30±2.04)mm] was significantly larger than that in the control group[(11.12±1.83)mm](t=5.530, P=0.0001). The pregnancy rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(χ2=4.990, P=0.025). The serum levels of follicle stimulating hormone(FSH)[(4.80±0.56)IU/L], luteinizing hormone(LH)[(7.35±0.11)IU/L], uterine pulse index(PI)(2.77±0.41), and uterine artery resistance index(RI)(0.61±0.09) in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(t=5.003, P=0.000; t=6.449, P=0.000; t=5.304, P=0.000; t=5.008, P=0.000), and the estradiol(E2)[(190.51±23.11)ng/L] and endometrial thickness[(10.11±1.57)mm] were significantly higher than those in the control group(t=38.521, P=0.000; t=6.001, P=0.000). The serum levels of ApoB/ApoA1(0.62±0.08), AMH[(4.13±0.61)μg/L], and AGEs[(118.04±13.35)ng/L] in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(t=5.553, P=0.000; t=5.790, P=0.000; t=18.043, P=0.000).
ConclusionThe efficacy of tedrogesterone tablets combined with clomiphene on PCOS with infertility is significant, and can down-regulate serum levels of ApoB/ApoA1, AMH, and AGEs.
