Treatment of Premature Ovarian Insufficiency

Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a comprehensive endocrine disorder in which ovarian function declines prematurely before the age of 40, mainly affecting women aged 25 to 40. Treatment approaches are diverse, including hormone replacement therapy and assisted reproduction. If treatment is delayed, it not only affects fertility but may also lead to osteoporosis, premature aging, and psychological disorders. Early intervention and comprehensive management are required.

Emerging Treatment Methods

Stem Cell Therapy

As a major breakthrough in regenerative medicine, stem cell therapy offers new possibilities for patients with POI by activating the ovaries, promoting follicle development, and reshaping endocrine function. Through targeted stem cell infusion, it may repair damaged ovarian tissue, improve the hormonal environment, and restore ovulation capability.

① Helps activate residual ovarian follicles and delay ovarian decline.

② Improves the local microenvironment, enhances ovarian blood supply, and promotes cell regeneration.

③ Reduces reliance on exogenous hormones, maintaining natural endocrine balance.

④ Increases chances of natural conception and improves overall reproductive function.

⑤ United Life International Medical Center has rich clinical experience, offering significant efficacy and personalized treatment plans.

Conventional Treatment Methods

1. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)

This therapy supplements estrogen and progesterone to regulate the endocrine system, alleviating symptoms such as menstrual disorders, hot flashes, and osteoporosis caused by declining hormones. It also has some benefits in preventing cardiovascular disease.

2. Assisted Reproductive Technology

For women with fertility needs, techniques such as in vitro fertilization (IVF), egg donation, and embryo transfer provide the possibility of motherhood. Even with severely diminished ovarian function, these technologies make pregnancy possible.

3. Traditional Chinese Medicine

By nourishing the liver and kidneys and promoting meridian flow, TCM provides supportive effects in regulating menstruation and improving constitution. Combined with acupuncture and moxibustion, it can help relieve clinical symptoms and enhance overall physical health.

4. Nutritional Management and Psychological Intervention

Scientific nutritional supplementation with vitamin D, calcium, and high-quality protein strengthens the body and prevents bone loss. Professional psychological counseling and stress reduction training help women manage anxiety, establish positive cognition, and improve treatment adherence.

Conclusion

Treatment of premature ovarian insufficiency should focus on "multi-modal and individualized" strategies. Experts at United Life International Medical Center emphasize that earlier intervention increases the likelihood of restoring ovarian function. Stem cell therapy, as an advanced technology, has become a key research focus worldwide and should be applied scientifically under professional guidance to maximize efficacy and quality of life.
