针灸基于改善子宫内环境治疗薄型子宫内膜的研究进展

Progress of Acupuncture Based on Improving the Intrauterine Environment in the Treatment of Thin Endometrium

薄型子宫内膜,是由于多种原因导致子宫内膜受损、变薄,子宫内膜容受性降低的一种疾病,其发病率不断增加,与女性年龄密切相关。薄型子宫内膜降低对受精卵的容受能力,给越来越多育龄期妇女带来困扰以及较大的经济压力。针灸具有调补冲任,补肾健脾疏肝等重要作用,在改善子宫内膜容受性方面疗效优越。针灸治疗具有性价比高、疗效好、安全性高、患者接受度高等优势。本文将从子宫内膜、子宫内膜容受性、激素水平以及分子生物学四个方面,探讨针灸通过改善子宫内环境治疗薄型子宫内膜的临床进展,概述如下。Thin endometrium, a condition in which the lining of the uterus is damaged and thinned for a variety of reasons, with reduced endometrial receptivity, is increasing in prevalence and is closely related to a woman’s age. Thin endometrium reduces the ability to accommodate a fertilized egg, causing distress and financial stress to an increasing number of women of childbearing age. Acupuncture has an important role in tonifying Chong Ren, tonifying the kidneys, strengthening the spleen and dredging the liver, and has superior efficacy in improving endometrial receptivity. Acupuncture treatment has the advantages of cost-effectiveness, efficacy, safety, and patient acceptance. In this paper, we will discuss the clinical progress of acupuncture in treating thin endometrium by improving the intrauterine environment from four aspects: endometrium, endometrial tolerance, hormone level and molecular biology, as summarized below.
