OBJECTIVE: To probe into the effects of letrozole combined with dexamethasone on anti-mullerian hormone( AMH)
nitric oxide( NO) and vascular endothelial growth factor( VEGF) in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome. METHODS: Totally 155 patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome admitted into Meishan Women and Children’s Hospital from Oct. 2018 to Nov. 2019 were extracted. The included patients were sorted from 1 to 155
and the odd number of patients were included in the control group and the even number of patients were included in the combined group. Seventy-eight patients in the control group were treated with letrozole alone
while 77 patients in the combined group were treated with letrozole combined with dexamethasone. The peripheral blood was collected before treatment and at the end of treatment
and changes of hormone-related indicators and serum-related indicators were detected and compared after treatment. The ovulation of two groups was detected and compared at the end of treatment.The incidence of adverse drug reactions in two groups was recorded. RESULTS: At the end of treatment
the levels of luteinizing hormone
testosterone
AMH and VEGF in two groups were lower than those before treatment
and the level of NO was higher than that before treatment; the levels of luteinizing hormone
testosterone
AMH and VEGF in the combined group were lower than those in control group
and the level of NO in the combined group was higher than that in the control group
with statistically significant differences( P<0. 05). At the end of treatment
the number of mature follicle in the combined group was more than those in the control group
and the maximum follicle diameter in the combined group was longer than that in the control group
with statistically significant differences( P < 0. 05).Minor adverse drug reactions occurred during treatment in both groups
and the difference in the incidence of adverse drug reactions was not statistically significant( P > 0. 05). CONCLUSIONS: Compared with single use of letrozole
letrozole combined with dexamethasone in the treatment of polycystic ovarian syndrome can regulate the levels of hormones
decrease the serum levels of AMH and VEGF
increase the level of NO
and have better ovulation induction effects with few adverse drug reactions
