The Clinical Trial of Electro-thumbtack Needle on Live Birth Rate in Patients With Ovarian Reserve Dysfunction (DOR)

The Effect of Electro-thumbtack Needle on Live Birth Rate in Patients With Ovarian Reserve Dysfunction (DOR): a Multicenter Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

This study will include 246 patients with ovarian reserve dysfunction (DOR), who will be randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group, with 123 patients in each group. The treatment group will receive electro-thumbtack needle treatment, while the control group will receive placebo electro-thumbtack needle treatment. Both groups will receive a treatment course of 3 menstrual cycles. This study evaluates the effect of electrocautery on the live birth rate of patients with DOR.
