    Primary Outcome Measures

    The Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale Scores Before and After the Intervention
    The full name of the scale called Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale.The ZSAS contains 20 questions. Each question is scored on a scale of 1-4 (never, some of the time, relatively often, most of the time). Fifteen questions involve the assessment of increasing anxiety levels, and five questions involve decreasing anxiety levels.Each items points accumulated as raw scores,the lowest raw score is 20 points, the highest raw score is 80 points. The raw scores multiply by 1.25, taking the integer part as the standard scores.The ZSAS standard scores were used to define four categories of anxiety severity: within normal rangeor no significant psychopathology (25-49points);presence of mild to moderate anxiety levels (50-59points); severe anxiety levels (60-69points); and presence of extreme depression (70-100points).

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Endometrial Thickness Were Measured by Ultrasound in the Middle of Menstruation in All Patients.
    Menstruation Was Evaluated With Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) in Which the Menstruation Was Assessed by the Patients Themselves With 0 as Amenorrhea and 100 as Normal Menstruation
    Numbers of Participants With Reformation of Intrauterine Adhesions Were Counted by the Follow-up Hysteroscopy Was Performed in the Third Month After the Surgery
    The Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale Scores Before and After the Intervention
    The full name of the scale called Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale.The ZSDS includes 10 positively worded items and 10 negatively worded items that assess symptoms of depression. Item responses are ranked from 1 to 4, and higher scores correspond to more frequent symptoms. For each item,patients give a score according to whether the item has occurred: 1 = never/very rarely; 2 = once in a while/some of the time/occasionally; 3 = relatively often/very often/often; 4 = most of the time/always. Each items points accumulated as raw scores,the lowest raw score is 20 points, the highest raw score is 80 points. The raw scores multiply by 1.25, taking the integer part as the standard scores.The ZSDS standard scores were used to define four categories of depression severity: within normal range or no significant psychopathology (below 51points); presence of minimal to mild depression (51-60points); presence of moderate to marked depression (61-70points).
