Brief Summary:
Asherman's syndrome is characterized by the presence of intrauterine adhesions (IUA) as well as symptoms such as amenorrhea, hypomenorrhea, pelvic pain, and infertility. The gold standard for the treatment of intrauterine adhesions is hysteroscopic intrauterine adhesions. The recurrence of intrauterine adhesions is a major challenge in clinical practice. It has been reported that dried biological aminion graft was used to prevent adhesion after the operation of intrauterine adhesions. Intrauterine balloon can reduce the recurrence of adhesions after operation. Does the combination of balloon and amniotic products can improve clinical outcomes? Therefore, this study was conducted.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Intrauterine Adhesion Procedure: dried biological amnion graft Device: disposable balloon uterine stent Drug: estradiol valerate tablets Drug: dydrogesterone Tablets Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

The diaposable balloon uterine(a special intrauterine balloon) is usually inserted into the uterine after a hysteroscopic adhesiolysis and removed after on the 7th day after surgery. Another group, the diaposable balloon uterin and dried biological amnion will be inserted into the uterine after a hysteroscopic adhesiolysis and removed after on the 7th day after surgery.Several investigators demonstrated its favorable effect in the recurrence of adhesion after the treatment of intrauterine adhesion. Disposable balloon uterine stent is specially designed to fit into the cavity of the uterus, and usually removed on the 7th day after surgery.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: dried biological amnion graft
dried biological amnion graft patients, who are with IUA, treated by uterine application of dried biological amnion graft + disposable balloon uterine stent + hormones (estradiol valerate tablets+dydrogesterone Tablets) following hysteroscopic adhesiolysis.
 Procedure: dried biological amnion graft
dried biological amnion graft. The amnion grafts were spread on the balloon end of disposable balloon uterine stent .
Other Name: uterine application of amnion membrance

Device: disposable balloon uterine stent
the disposable balloon uterine stent is heart-shaped that resembled the shape of the uterine cavity and could fully separate the two sides of the uterine wall and the corners of the uterus.

Drug: estradiol valerate tablets
oral estradiol valerate tablets, which can promote endometrial growth after operation.
Other Name: Progynova

Drug: dydrogesterone Tablets
oral dydrogesterone Tablets
Other Name: Duphaston
Sham Comparator: disposable balloon uterine stent only
disposable balloon uterine stent patients, who are with IUA, treated by uterine application of disposable balloon uterine stent only + hormones (estradiol valerate tablets+dydrogesterone Tablets) following hysteroscopic adhesiolysis.
 Device: disposable balloon uterine stent
