Ovarian Innervation Coupling With Vascularity: The Role of Electro-Acupuncture in Follicular Maturation in a Rat Model of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Low-frequency electro-acupuncture (EA) has been shown to restore ovulation in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and previous animal experiments showed that EA improves ovarian blood flow and angiogenesis. We performed EA for 4 weeks in dihydrotestosterone (DHT)-induced PCOS-like rats a...
