Clinical study on treatment of oligospermia with traditional Chinese and western medicine / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and sperm density of Bushen Yijing decoction and tamoxifen,zinc and vitamin E in treating oligospermia with kidney deficiency syndrome .Methods 450 patients with oligospermia were randomly divided into 3 groups.150 patients of the treatment group were treated by Bushen Yijing decoction,tamoxifen,zinc and vitamin E,150 patients of the control group I were treated by Bushen Yijing decoction , zinc and vitamin E,150 patients of the control group II were treated by tamoxifen ,zinc and vitamin E.3 groups were treated for 3 months,pregnancy terminating of treatment and otherwise continued to observe for 3 months after the end of treatment,the sperm density and other sperm parameters (sperm amount,pH,sperm motility,sperm survival rate, sperm normal modality rate ) were evaluated before and after treatment .Results The total effective rates of the treat-ment group,control group I and II were 90.21%,85.11%,72.22%respectively.The total effective rate of the treat-ment group was higher than that of the control group I (χ2 =9.53,P<0.05) and II(χ2 =23.38,P<0.01).The pregnancy rates of the treatment group ,control group I and II were 42.66%,25.53%,20.83%,respectively.The pregnancy rate of treatment group was significantly better than that of the control group I (χ2 =9.26,P<0.01) and II (χ2 =15.78,P<0.01).There were significant differences between before and after treatment on sperm density , sperm motility,sperm survival rate and sperm normal modality rate in the treatment group ( t=-22.22,-18.07,-33.48,-28.46,all P<0.01).Conclusion Bushen Yijing decoction combined with tamoxifen ,zinc and vitamin E can evidently improve the sperm density and other sperm qualities and conception rate of oligospermia with kidney deficiency syndrome .
