Brief summary
This study aimed to investigate the effects of probiotics in combination with pelvic floor muscle electrophysiologic therapy on the uterine endometrial repair and reproductive prognosis in patients after surgery for intrauterine adhesion
Detailed description
Post-traumatic repair disorder of endometrium can cause intrauterine adhesions, amenorrhea and infertility, which seriously endanger women's reproductive health. In our previous study, high throughput sequencing of intrauterine microorganisms showed that the content of lactic acid bacteria in the uterine cavity of patients with intrauterine adhesions was significantly lower than that of normal people. Concurrently, our previous studies found that chronic endometritis can aggravate endometrial fibrosis, then affect the repair of endometrial trauma, and increase the recurrence of intrauterine adhesion. Our previous study also suggest that stem cells are beneficial to the repair of endometrium. Studies have shown that lactic acid can inhibit inflammatory response and regulate the proliferation of intestinal stem cells. So can lactic acid also change the microbial environment in uterine cavity to inhibit endometrial inflammation and regulate the proliferation of endometrial stem cells to help repair endometrial wounds? In addition, electrical stimulation can relieve depression and anxiety and play a sedative effect. In recent years, some studies have shown that pelvic floor electrophysiological therapy can improve the intimal blood flow resistance index of thin endometrium. Therefore, whether or not the pelvic floor electrophysiological therapy can repair the endometrium after the intrauterine adhesion. We expect probiotics and electrophysiologic therapy can promote endometrial repair after electrosurgical resection of intrauterine adhesions.

Inclusion criteria
(1) Preoper- ative AFS score was ≥9; (2) the prior menstrual cycle was regular, and the sex hormone was normal; (3) patients had fertility requirement; (4) male semen examination appeared normal; (5) there were no severe systemic diseases and no contradictions to aspirin, estrogen, and surgery
Exclusion criteria
(1) Preoperative AFS score was \<9; (2) prior menstrual cycle was irregular and sex hormone was abnormal, or patients had endocrine factors that caused amenorrhea, menstrual reduction, and infertility; (3) patients had no fertility requirement; (4) patients had male factor infertility; (5) patients had contradictions to estrogen and aspirin such as cancers (breast cancer and endometrial cancer), thrombotic diseases, allergy to antipyretic anal- gesics, severe liver injury, hypoprothrombinemia, vitamin K deficiency, hemophilia, thrombocytopenia, and gastric or duodenal ulcer and asthma
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Endometrial Thickness | Within the first 3 months after surgery | All Participants in the Mid Menstrual Measured by Color Doppler Ultrasound |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Menstruation Pattern of All Participants | Within the first 3 months after surgery | A method similar to VAS was employed for the evaluation of post-operative menstruation with 0 as amenorrhea and 100 as normal menstruation. |
| Reduction of American Fertility Society adhesion score at Second-look hysteroscopy of All Participants | Within the first 3 months after surgery | The severity and extent of intrauterine adhesions were scored according to a classification system recommended by the American Fertility Society (AFS) (1988 version). A score of 1-4 was considered to represent mild adhesions, a score of 5-8 was considered to represent moderate adhesions and a score of 9-12 represented severe adhesions. |
