The influence of a combined estrogen-progestin regimen (Climodien) on noopsyche, thymopsyche, personality and psychophysiological measures of menopausal syndrome patients was investigated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, comparative, …
BACKGROUND: Initial publications examining the hereditary aspects of endometriosis appeared in the early seventies and demonstrated an up to seven-fold risk for endometriosis in first-degree relatives of endometriosis patients. The aim was …
BACKGROUND: There is increasing awareness of the opportunity that many contraceptive interventions may provide for additional health benefits. However, treatment of medical problems with oral contraceptives (OCs) is often an 'off-label' pra…
OBJECTIVE: Genetic factors have been proposed as modulators of the timing of natural menopause. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of genes associated with thrombophilia and vascular homeostasis may interfere with ovarian function and t…
OBJECTIVE: Genetic as well as hormonal factors are known to influence the development and clinical course of endometriosis. We aimed to investigate the association among 10 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) involved in the estrogen met…
The number of reports investigating disease susceptibility based on the carriage of low-penetrance, high-frequency polymorphisms has steadily increased over the last years. Evidence based on meta-analyses of individual case-control studies …
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterus. This condition causes painful periods, chronic pelvic pain, subfertility and a profound reduction in quality of life, especially durin…
Endometriosis is a multifactorial disease affecting up to 15% of women of reproductive age. This condition is characterized by the presence and growth of endometrial cells outside the uterus. Susceptibility to endometriosis depends on compl…
Differences in sleep and awakening quality between 51 insomniac postmenopausal syndrome patients and normal controls were evaluated. In a subsequent double-blind, placebo-controlled, comparative, randomized, three-arm trial (Climodien 2/3 =…
Combined laparoscopic retrieval of immature oocytes and ovarian electrocautery represents a new management in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), one of the most prevalent endocrinopathies associated with anovulatory infertility…
To explore whether having the mutant tumor necrosis factor (TNF)2 (G-308*A) and TNFA-A (G-238*A) alleles in the TNF-alpha gene promotor region is higher in women with endometriosis, we determined the respective genotype and allele frequenci…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the literature on contraindications contained in pharmaceutical data sheets of five currently available oestrogen replacement preparations (HRT). These contraindications include cardiovascular disease, diabetes, liver…
