Advantages of Chinese Medicine for Treatment of Blood Sugar and Lipid Metabolic Disorders in Patients with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

Objective To study the advantages of Chinese medicine （CM） in treating insulin resistance and disorders of glucose and lipid metabolism in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome （PCOS）, and to explore its underlying mechanisms. Methods One hundred PCOS patients were assigned to three groups： 40 patients in the CM group treated by CM, 30 in the WM1 group treated by metformin, and 30 in the WM2 group treated by cyproterone. Before treatment and at 3 cycles and 6 cycles after treatment, changes of body mass index （BMI）, fasting serum insulin （FINS） and fasting blood sugar （FBG） levels as well as lipid spectrum were measured and the homeostasis model of insulin resistance （HOMA-IR） was calculated. Meanwhile, the recovery of ovulation was observed. Results There were 30, 22 and 23 patients in the CM, WM1 and WM2 group respectively completed their 6-month treatments. Levels of FINS, FBG, HOMA-IR, total cholesterol （TC） and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C） were lowered and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C） level increased in the CM group after 6-month treatment, showing significant difference as compared with the baseline （ P 〈0.05）, and the difference in comparing with the WM2 group was statistically significant in terms of MBI, FINS, FBG, HOMA-IR, TC and LDL-C （ P 〈 0.05）. The ovulation rate was 53.3% （16/30） in the CM group, 27.3% （6/22） in the WM1 group and 21.7% （5/23） in the WM2 group, comparison between them showed a signifi- cant difference between the CM group and the WM2 group （ P 〈 0.01 ）. Conclusion CM is effective for the treatment of PCOS in improving insulin resistance, adjusting blood sugar and lipids levels and recovering ovulation.
