Abstract
Objective: To observe the effectiveness and safety of Huotujiji prescription for patients with asthenospermia of spleen-kidney yang-deficiency.
Methods: Patients with spleen-kidney-yang deficiency type of asthenospermia were divided into two groups by randomized control method. The patients in the control group were treated with L-carnitine oral solution alone. And the patients in experimental group were treated with Huotujiji prescription. Semen volume, sperm concentration, PR, TCM symptom score and spouse pregnancy were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.
Results: A total of 115 patients were included in the study, with 55 in the experimental group and 60 in the control group. In the experimental group, the sperm concentration before and after treatment were (160.71±53.7)×106/mL, (187.19±41.89)×106/mL, and PR were (20.37±9.42)%, (26.7±6.92)%, respectively. PR+NP were (32.06±8.49)% and (34.89±7.25)%. After the treatment, the sperm motility of both groups significantly improved compared to pre-treatment levels (P<0.05). And the experimental group's sperm concentration also showed a significant increase after the treatment (P<0.05). The pregnancy rate of spouses in the control group was 11.67%, which was 29.09% in the experimental group. The pregnancy rate of the spouses in the two groups showed a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). After 12weeks of treatment, the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) symptom scores in the control group did not decrease significantly compared to those before treatment (P> 0.05). In contrast, the TCM symptom scores in the experimental group decreased significantly after treatment (P<0.05). Moreover, compared with the control group, the TCM symptom scores of the experimental group decreased significantly after treatment (P<0.05).
Conclusion: Huotujiji prescription can safely and effectively improve the sperm quality and vitality of patients with spleen-kidney-yang deficiency type of asthenospermia, improve the symptoms of patients, and increase the pregnancy rate of their spouses, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
