Brief Summary: Moxibustion of Shen Que (RN8) can increase the number of embryos available for transfer, thus improving pregnancy outcomes in women of advanced reproductive age who experience unexpected poor ovarian response.
Detailed Description: According to the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory, Shen Que (RN8) is the place where the vitality converges under the navel, and is closely connected with the vitality generated by the kidney Qi. Therefore, stimulating Shen Que may stimulate the essence stored in the kidney, and improve the fertility of "五七" (≥ 35 years old) women.

Shen Que moxibustion has been shown to improve ovarian functional reserve in patients with ovarian insufficiency in previous studies. Nevertheless, studies on Shen Que moxibustion in advanced women with unexpected poor ovarian response (POR) who undergo IVF-ET are very limited. Consequently, we designed this randomized controlled trial to validate the hypothesis that Shen Que moxibustion improves reproductive outcomes in unexpected POR women.
