Study summary

The effectiveness of thalidomide in treating inflammatory bowel disease has been widely recognized. Meanwhile, many serious adverse drug reactions were notified, but no reports on ovarian reserve function.Therefore, this study was to investigate the influence of thalidomide on function of ovarian reserve.

Read the detailed description

It will be divided two groups of patients according to the treatment itself . One group was treated by thalidomide, the other was other treatment excluding. It will detect the function of ovarian reserve before and after treatment in both two groups, to investigate the influence of thalidomide on function of ovarian reserve.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. difference AMH between thalidomide group and other treatment group

    Anti-mullerian hormone(AMH), as an important index to monitor the function of ovarian reserve, is majorly secreted by preantral follicles and antral follicles without fluctuation during menstrual cycle, not affected by hormone, and its change is earlier than sex hormone.

    Time frame: 1 year

  2. difference AFC between thalidomide group and other treatment group

    The foundational follicles at 5- 10 mm of both ovaries were determined and the sum of antral follicles of both sides of ovaries was as antral follicles communicate (AFC)

    Time frame: 1 year

  3. difference E2 between thalidomide group and other treatment group

    estradiol,a kind of hormone

    Time frame: 1 year

  4. difference FSH between thalidomide group and other treatment group

    Follicle stimulating hormone,a kind of hormone

    Time frame: 1 year
