| Parameter | Control | COH | ZDY | COH + ZDY |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Implantation sites (n) | 10.33±0.84 | 3.67±0.49a | 10.00±0.73 | 8.67±0.33 |
| Live births (n) | 11.00±0.63 | 4.33±0.42a | 10.67±0.71 | 9.33±0.61 |

a
P<0.05 vs. all other groups.
No significant differences were found among the control, ZDY and COH + ZDY groups. The groups were established as follows: COH, GnRHa long protocol-stimulated rats; ZDY, rats that received ZDY treatment; COH + ZDY, GnRHa-long protocol-stimulated rats that received ZDY treatment.
COH, controlled ovarian hyperstimulation; ZDY, Zi Dan Yin; D3, day 3 of pregnancy; GnRHA, gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist.
