Menopause: Health Impacts and Treatments

Estrogen replacement increases both the number of dendritic spines and the density of axospinous synapses in the hippocampal CA1 region in young rats, yet this is attenuated in aged rats. The estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-alpha) is localized within select spines of CA1 pyramidal cells in young animals and thus may be in…

Estrogen regulates hippocampal dendritic spine density and synapse number in an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-dependent manner, and these effects may be of particular importance in the context of age-related changes in endocrine status. We investigated estrogen's effects on axospinous synapse density and the sy…

BACKGROUND: Oral contraceptive pills (OC) are usually the first choice of treatment for polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), when fertility is not desired. However, they do not improve, or may even further induce impairment of insulin sensitivity, which is already impaired in women with PCOS. In this prospective, rando…

STUDY QUESTION: Is severe early ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) completely prevented with the GnRH agonist trigger and 1500 IU hCG luteal rescue protocol? SUMMARY ANSWER: Severe early OHSS can occur even after the GnRH agonist trigger and 1500 IU hCG luteal rescue protocol. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: Prior studie…

BACKGROUND: Hyperprolactinemia has been reported to be associated with abnormalities of carbohydrate metabolism. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of hyperprolactinemia and bromocriptine (Brc) treatment on endothelial function, insulin sensitivity and inflammatory markers in pre-menopausal women. METHO…

INTRODUCTION: Although women may undergo changes in sexual function during pregnancy, there are limited studies correlating possible sexual function changes to androgen blood levels during the pregnancy. AIM: To search for a possible correlation, we performed a cross-sectional observational study to assess sexual func…
