Research Progress of TCM in the Treatment of Phlegm-Dampness Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Phlegm-dampness polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)is a syndrome with deficient root cause and excessive manifestation,which is based on kidney deficiency and phlegm-dampness.TCM treatments of phlegm-dampness PCOS mainly include syndrome differ-entiation,sequential treatment of Chinese drugs,treatment with modified classical formulas,treatment with empirical formulas,acupunc-ture and moxibustion,etc.,which is safe and effective.However,there are still the following disadvantages:(1)There are many small sample studies on Chinese drugs,acupuncture and moxibustion treatment of phlegm-dampness PCOS,but there is a lack of clinical multi-center large sample verification;(2)Although studies have shown that the relationship between psychological stress and phlegm-dampness PCOS is the cause-effect one,there is still a lack of attention to this in clinical practice;(3)The research of formulas is mainly symptomatic treatment.Therefore,efforts should be made from the following aspects:(1)To carry out systematic,scientific,rig-orously designed,multi-center,large sample,randomized double-blind trials as much as possible,so as to make the research results of TCM curative effect more convincing;(2)Besides drug therapy,to add emotional therapy so as to make the patient change in mentality,which is conducive to the adherence of long-term curative effect;(3)To design experiments from the study of drug ingredients,which is conducive to better clarify the mechanism of formula treatment of the disease and the development of new drugs.
