[The effect of gengnianningshentang on treating 72 patients with female climacteric syndrome of fever due to yin-deficiency].

OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical effect of gengnianningshentang on the treatment of the climacteric syndrome of fever due to yin-deficiency. METHODS: 108 patients with climacteric syndrome of fever due to yin-deficiency were divided randomly into treatment group (76 cases)and control group (32 cases). Treatment group was treated by gengnianningshentang, and control group was treated by Vitamin E for 3 months. Level of serum E2, LH and FSH were determined, while the variation of symptom scores of climacteric syndrome was observed. RESULTS: Level of serum E2 in treatment group increased significantly and serum LH and FSH decreased significantly after treatment (p < 0.01). The post treatment total scores of climacteric syndrome in the treament group were significantly improved (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Gengnianningshentang can significantly improve the levels of E2, FSH and LH, and climacteric syndrome in patients of fever due to yin-deficiency. The total effect of gengnianningshentang is much better than western medicine.
