Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Menstrual blood volume

    Estimate the menstrual blood volume after surgery by the number of sanitary napkins per day and number of days, which will be compared with pre-operation.

    at 3 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Endometrial thickness

    at 3 months

  • Uterine volume

    at 3 months

  • Ongoing pregnancy rate

    up to 24 months

Interventions

hAECsBIOLOGICAL

hAECs are provided by Chongqing iCELL Biotechnology Co.,Ltd., which is a subsidiary of Shanghai iCELL Biotechnology Co.,Ltd. The participants are blind to their arms because the surgery is done under anesthesia. After hysteroscopic adhesiolysis, subsequently oral antibiotics will be given for 3 days to prevent infection. Estrogen will be administrated for 3 cycles to stimulate the repair of endometrium after the surgery.
