Summary

In the early stage, our team found that Acupuncture intervention in freeze-all IVF cycles can improve the clinical pregnancy rate. In order to further study the role of Acupuncture in improving the pregnancy outcome of IVF-ET in infertility. A randomized controlled clinical trial will be used in this study. 90 infertile patients are randomly divided into two groups. The control group will be treated with conventional modern medicine, and the treatment group will be treated with Acupuncture on the basis of conventional modern medicine. The intervention starts from the 5th day of the menstrual cycle and lasts to the day before IVF-ET. The number of oocytes, antral follicles, AMH, serum FSH, and clinical pregnancy rate will be observed to evaluate the effect of Acupuncture on the improvement of pregnancy outcome. In addition, all of the participants will be asked to complete the self-evaluation of the anxiety/depression scale on the 7th day of the menstrual cycle, before and after transplantation, to analyze the emotional changes of the subjects during the study. We observe the safety and health economic indicators of Acupuncture treatment, so as to improve the overall efficacy of TCM Combined Application in assisted reproductive technology in the future.
