AB  - OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical effect between wheat-grain moxibustion at 
      Yinbai (SP 1) and oral administration of dydrogesterone tablet for menstrual 
      period prolongation after down-regulation treatment of in vitro fertilization 
      embryo transfer (IVF-ET). METHODS: A total of 54 patients with prolonged 
      menstrual period after down-regulation treatment of IVF-ET were randomly divided 
      into an observation group and a control group, 27 cases in each one. In the 
      observation group, when the menstrual period delayed more than 7 days, the 
      wheat-grain moxibustion at Yinbai (SP 1) was performed, once a day, with an 
      interval of 1 day between two 3-day treatments; when the menstrual blood was 
      cleaned, the ovulation was continued and the eggs were taken. In the control 
      group, when the menstrual period delayed more than 7 days, the oral 
      administration of dydrogesterone tablet was provided, 10 mg each time, twice a 
      day; when the menstrual blood was cleaned, the ovulation was continued and the 
      eggs were taken. The number of days for menstrual blood to be cleaned, the area 
      change of uterine cavity hemorrhage, the morphology of endometrium, the blood 
      supply of endometrium, the number of oocytes obtained, the grade of frozen embryo 
      and the clinical effect were observed between the two groups after treatment. 
      RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the number of days for menstrual blood 
      to be cleaned was shorter in the observation group after treatment (P<0.05); the 
      area of uterine cavity hemorrhage in the observation group was smaller than that 
      in the control group (P<0.05); the morphology of endometrium and the supply of 
      blood flow in the observation group were superior to those in the control group 
      (P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the number of oocytes 
      obtained and available frozen embryo between the two groups (P>0.05). The cured 
      rate in the observation group was 100.0% (27/27), higher than 33.3% (9/27) in the 
      control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The wheat-grain moxibustion at Yinbai (SP 1) 
      could more effectively treat prolonged menstrual period after IVF-ET 
      down-regulation treatment, which is beneficial to the preparation of the 
      endometrium, and has no effect on the oocyte collection and embryo culture.
