ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

We aimed to evaluate changes in ovarian reserve and quality of life in women treated with ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (USgHIFU) for uterine fibroids.

METHODS:

In this single-center prospective study, a total of 69 patients with uterine fibroids treated with USgHIFU from October 2018 to November 2021 were enrolled. Fibroid volume, anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels, uterine fibroid symptom scores, and uterine fibroid symptoms and quality of life (UFS-QOL) questionnaire scores before and 1, 3, and 6 months after USgHIFU treatment were analyzed. Correlations between AMH levels and age, fibroid type, and fibroid location were assessed.

RESULTS:

Data from 54 of the 69 patients included in the present study were analyzed. The UFS-QOL scores at baseline and at 1 month and 6 months after USgHIFU treatment were 70 (50.75-87.50), 57 (44.75-80.00), and 52 (40.75-69.00) points, respectively (p < 0.001). The rate of fibroid volume reduction increased significantly at the 3-month follow-up compared with the 1-month follow-up (p < 0.001), and no significant change was observed between the 3-month and 6-month follow-ups (p > 0.99). The median AMH levels before and at 1, 3 and 6 months after treatment were 1.22 (0.16-3.28) ng/ml, 1.12 (0.18-2.52) ng/ml, 1.15 (0.19-2.08) ng/ml and 1.18 (0.36-2.43) ng/ml, respectively (p = 0.2). Multivariate linear regression analyses revealed that age was independently associated with AMH levels.

CONCLUSIONS:

USgHIFU treatment for uterine fibroids can significantly improve quality of life with minimal adverse effects on ovarian function.
