Prescription promoting blood circulation and dispersing blood stasis — Experimental studies on preventive and therapeutic action in endometrial adhesion in rats

Abstract

Phenol mucilage was injected into the uterine cavities of rats to establish a model of endometrial adhesion, and then decoctions promoting blood circulation and dispersing blood stasis were given to them in order to prevent the formation of adhesion in one group and to treat it in another group. The results of the experiment showed that only a few rats suffered from extensive endometrial adhesion in the prevention group and there was only slight pathological change in the treatment group. This suggests that the prescription is useful in preventing and treating endometrial adhesions of rats induced by phenol mucilage, which provides a scientific basis for its clinical application to the treatment of intrauterine adhesions after curettage for induced abortion. The mechanism of action of the prescription in the prevention and treatment of endometrial adhesions is briefly discussed.
