Diminished Ovarian Reserve Acupoint Thumb Tack Needle Randomized Controlled Trial

ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is exploring a new treatment for women dealing with Diminished Ovarian Reserve (DOR), which is a condition that can lead to difficulties in becoming pregnant. The researchers are looking at a special type of acupuncture called thumb-tack needle treatment to see if it can help improve ovarian function. Women between the ages of 18 and 40 who have been diagnosed with DOR may be eligible to participate in this study. To qualify, they need to have specific hormone levels and should not be receiving other treatments for their condition.

Participants in this trial can expect to receive the thumb-tack needle treatment during the study period. It’s important to note that women who are currently pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain medical conditions will not be able to join. This study is currently recruiting participants, and those who volunteer will be helping to determine if this new acupuncture method can be an effective way to support fertility in women with DOR.
