  • Protocol summary

    The aim of study is to evaluate the effects of herbal medicine (Mixture) on Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in infertile women. herbal medicine (Mixture) is a 700 mg capsule containing 250 mg Mentha longifolia, 200 mg Zingiber officinale, 150 mg Cinnamon and 100 mg Citrus that is standardized by Part Teb International Company. 102 patients diagnosed with PCOS and infertility and aged 20-35 after obtaining inform consent will be randomly selected and assigned to 3 groups; 34 people in each. Random assignment of individuals to each group would allow confounding factors to be well controlled. In case of drug intolerance or dissatisfaction in any stage of the study, they are free to withdraw any time. The first group (intervention) will be given herbal medicine (Mixture) ‍with a dose of 700mgs/day continuous for 3 months, the second group (control) will receive routine treatment of Clomiphene Citrate 50-150 mg for 3 menstrual cycles, starting from 5th day of menstruation for 5 days and the third group (intervention) will receive both herbal medicine (Mixture) ‍ and routine treatment as mentioned above. Before intervention and three months after the completion of medication patients in all three groups will be evaluated by blood tests of sex hormones (FSH, LH, estradiol, testosterone), biochemical markers (glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin), antioxidants levels (catalase, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide peroxidase, malondialdehyde) and Sonographic criteria of the ovary (ovarian size, number and size of follicles). This study is not blinded. In this study, improvement of ovarian cysts is considered as the primary outcome and pregnancy as secondary outcome.

    هدف از این مطالعه بررسی تأثیر مخلوط چند گیاه دارویی بر درمان سندرم تخمدان پلي كيستيك (PCOS) در زنان نابارور می باشد. مخلوط چند گیاه دارویی بصورت کپسول mg700 که شامل mg250 پونه+ mg200 زنجبیل+ mg 150دارچین و mg 100 پوست پرتقال می باشد که توسط شرکت بین المللی پارت طب ارس (دانش بنیان) استانداد سازی شده است. گروه مورد مطالعه 102 زن نابارور با تشخیص PCOS و در سن 20-35 که بعد از گرفتن رضایتنامه ی آگاهانه بصورت تصادفی در 3 گروه 34 نفره تقسیم شدند. انتساب تصادفی افراد به گروهها باعث خواهد شد عوامل مخدوشگر تا حدودی کنترل شود. در صورت عدم تحمل دارو یا عدم رضایت در هر مرحله با اختیار تمام افراد می توانند از مطالعه خارج شوند. گروه اول درمان (مداخله) مخلوط چند گیاه دارویی با دوزmg 700 روزانه یک عدد مداوم بمدت 3 ماه دریافت خواهد کرد، گروه دوم درمان (کنترل) دریافت درمان روتین قرص کلومیفن سیتراتmg 50-150 بمدت 3 سیکل قاعدگی که از روز پنجم سیکل قاعدگی بمدت 5 روز دریافت خواهد کرد و گروه سوم درمان (مداخله) مخلوط چند گیاه دارویی به همراه درمان روتین به شرح فوق را دریافت خواهد کرد. افراد مورد مطالعه، قبل از مداخله و سه ماه بعد از تکمیل دوره درمان میزان سطح خونی هورمون های جنسی (FSH، LH ،استرادیول، تستوسترون)، میزان سطح خونی مارکرهای بیوشیمیایی (قند خون، کلسترول، تری گلیسرید، انسولین)، میزان سطح آنتی اکسیدانتهای خون (کاتالاز، گلوتاتیون پراکسیداز، سوپر اکسید پراکسیداز، مالوندی آلدئید)و معیارهای سونوگرافیک تخمدان (سایز تخمدان، تعدد و اندازه ی فولیکولها) ارزیابی خواهد شد. این مطالعه کور نشده است. در این مطالعه، درمان کیست های تخمدانی بعنوان پیامد اول و حصول باروری بعنوان پیامد دوم در نظر گرفته شده است.
