Filter by:Aromatase inhibitors have been approved for use in postmenopausal women to treat and prevent breast cancer. They act by blocking the action of the enzyme, aromatase, that is necessary for the production of estradiol. This class of drugs, aromatase inhibitors, are very effective in reducing estradiol levels in postmenopausal women and in treating estrogen receptor positive breast cancers. This study is examining the effect of a specific inhibitor, anastrozole, on endometrial thickness in premenopausal women. The endometrium is sensitive to estradiol and also has local aromatase which, if inhibited, may result in reduced endometrial thickness. The main hypothesis is that anastrozole can be administered at any time during the menstrual cycle and reduce endometrial thickness compared to placebo.
This prospective cohort study assesses the effects of exposure to organophosphate (OP) pesticides on adverse reproductive outcomes in both male and female agricultural workers in China. We will enroll women and their spouses, who are attempting to become pregnant, and observe reproductive endpoints including (1) semen parameters (concentration, total count, motility, progression and morphology), (2) menstrual disorders (oligomenorrhea, amenorrhea, polymenorrhea, intermenstrual bleeding, prolonged menstrual bleeding, dysmenorrhea, and irregular menstruation); (3) alterations in hormone patterns including reduced estrogen excretion (REE), anovulation, abnormal luteal phase (ALP), and abnormal follicular phase (AFP) in women and abnormalities of LH, FSH, TSH, SHBG, inhibin-B and testosterone in men; (4) fecundability; and (5) pregnancy outcomes including spontaneous abortion, preterm delivery, low birth weight, and intrauterine growth retardation.
