Filter by:The aim of our study is to investigate the effects of 6 months oh HRT on total anti-oxidant capacity, clinical, endocrine and metabolic features in women affected by hypotalamic amenorrhea. The study group included 20 patients treated with 1 mg of transdermal estradiol daily and 10mg of oral Medroxyprogesterone acetate from 16th to 24th day of therapy for six months. Menstrual pattern, anthropometric parameters, hormonal assays, DXA and bone metabolism parameters are evaluated before and after therapy.
The investigators wish to explore the variability of uterine, breast and bone outcome markers as surrogates to assess the adequacy of exogenous oestrogen replacement in individuals with hypogonadism.
This study is a non-interventional prospective, multicenter, longitudinal study conducted in France, among a representative sample of public and/or private birth control centers. The aim of the study is to assess, in real-life settings, the success rate of the protocol Mifegyne / prostaglandin analogue in patients asking for medical abortion either prior or beyond 7 weeks of amenorrhea.
Heavy menstrual bleeding are a common reason for consultation in gynecology and are defined by International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics as the perception of menstrual volume increased regardless of the frequency, duration and regularity. Some studies report that up to 30% of women will suffer from heavy periods during their lifetime. The first line treatment of heavy bleeding is medical. However, a significant proportion of women require surgery. Until the 80s, hysterectomy was one of the only surgical options and often performed as the first line treatment. Since twenty years now the endometrial ablation has become a preferred option for dysfunctional uterine bleeding and avoids hysterectomy in a significant proportion of patients suffering from this type of problem. Endometrial ablation is much less invasive and morbid than hysterectomy, however, many patients do not achieve a complete amenorrhea with endometrial ablation and about 15% may have to require a new intervention, such as hysterectomy, following the persistence of menstrual problems. A Cochrane review published in 2013 showed that the satisfaction rate following endometrial ablation is high at 70-80% and about 35% of women have amenorrhea. The complete destruction of the endometrium is the most important predictor of the success of the procedure. Studies have shown that better results are obtained when the surgery is performed when the endometrium is thin or immediately following menses or following administration of a hormonal agent causes atrophy of the endometrium. One of the agents studied to prepare the endometrium before ablation is medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) as injectables (DMPA) and oral. Progestins have an antiproliferative effect on the endometrium. In recent years, numerous studies have examined the use of various agents preoperatively, including MPA and DMPA to facilitate surgery by reducing the thickness of the endometrium. However, few studies have focused on the conditions of the post-operative period to promote the therapeutic response to the intervention. The investigators hypothesis is whether the MPA administered in immediate post-operative would inhibit proliferation of endometrial cells responsible for the persistence of menstruation and optimize the clinical response to endometrial ablation.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the impact on quality of life, psychological health, sexuality and chronic pain of therapies which determine amenorrhea in symptomatic women with endometriosis, through the administration of self reported questionnaires. Amenorrhea in the first group is caused by balanced assumption of estroprogestins, in the second group is caused by GnRHa-induced hypoestrogenism.
Through the COLA Study and Biobank the investigators hope to enable further identification of phenotype, endocrine, ethnic, and metabolic characteristics associated with menstrual cycle disturbances; and: the identification of genetic or other etiologic factors associated with cycle disturbances.
The investigators propose a prospective, longitudinal, department funded study protocol to evaluate whether changes in energy availability, during a period of highly intensified exercise training, will increase bone turnover markers and decrease ovarian function and exercise performance, in a dose-dependent fashion in competitive female athletes.
Compare the potential benefits of adjuvant toremifene with or without goserelin in premenopausal women with stage I-IIIA, hormonal receptor positive breast cancer accompanied with or without chemotherapy induced amenorrhoea.
This study will be a Phase 3, randomized, three-cycle, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multiple-dose design. The study design has four phases: Screening Period; Open-Label Estrogen-Priming Period (Run-In Period); Blinded Treatment Period; and Follow-Up. The Open Label Priming Period and Blinded Treatment Period cover a total of three 28-day cycles. Clinical evaluations will be performed at the following time points: Screening Period: • Screening Period (approximately 42 Days) Open-Label Estrogen Priming Period (Run In Period): - Visit 1 Baseline (Cycle 1, Day 1) - Telephone Interview (Cycle 1, Day 28 [- 3 d to ±1d]) Blinded Treatment Period: - Visit 2 Randomization (Cycle 2, Day 12 [±2d]) - Visit 3 Interim (Cycle 3, Day 12 [±2d]) - Visit 4 End of treatment (Cycle 3, Day 24 [±1d]) Follow-Up Period: - Visit 5 Follow-Up (Approximately 10 days after the last treatment) - Telephone Interview (Approximately 2-4 weeks after completion of progestin course) (Only applies to subjects receiving an approved progestin therapy for proliferative endometrium, as determined by biopsy.)
