Brief summary
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the real-world effectiveness of Guishen Yijing Formula in women with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). The main question it aims to answer is: Does Guishen Yijing Formula improve ovarian reserve function in women with DOR after 3 months of treatment? Medical records of participants who received Guishen Yijing Formula as part of their routine clinical care for DOR will be reviewed. Changes in anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and symptom scores before and after treatment will be analyzed.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Serum Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) Level | From baseline to 3 months after treatment initiation | Change in serum AMH level before and after 3 months of treatment, measured by blood test. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Serum Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) | From baseline to 3 months after treatment initiation | Blood samples are collected before and after treatment. |
| Serum Luteinizing Hormone (LH) | From baseline to 3 months after treatment initiation | Blood samples are collected before and after treatment. |
| FSH/LH Ratio | From baseline to 3 months after treatment initiation | Change in FSH/LH ratio before and after treatment. |
| Serum Estradiol (E2) | From baseline to 3 months after treatment initiation | Blood samples are collected before and after treatment. |
| Traditional Chinese Medicine Syndrome Score | before and 1 month after the treatment | This syndrome score evaluates three primary symptoms and ten secondary symptoms related to traditional Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation. Total scores range from 0 to 48, with higher scores indicating more severe syndrome manifestations and a worse clinical outcome. |
| Modified Kupperman Menopausal Index (KMI) | before and 1 month after the treatment | The modified KMI consists of 13 menopausal symptoms, each rated on a 0-3 severity scale and weighted by symptom-specific coefficients. Total scores range from 0 to 63, with higher scores indicating more severe menopausal symptoms and a worse clinical outcome. |
| Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events | From baseline to 3 months after treatment initiation | The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events during the treatment period will be assessed, including gastrointestinal symptoms and abnormalities in liver and renal function. |
