The levonorgestrel intrauterine system: the benefits of reduced bleeding

The European journal of contraception & reproductive health care : the official journal of the European Society of Contraception ·doi:10.3109/ejc.6.s1.27.32

The levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) offers a new therapeutic concept that combines a highly efficient contraceptive with a treatment that reduces menstrual blood loss in both normal women and those with menorrhagia. Initially d…

Medical management of dysfunctional uterine bleeding

Bailliere's best practice & research. Clinical obstetrics & gynaecology ·doi:10.1053/beog.1999.0017

Complaints of excessive menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia) have a substantial impact on gynaecological services and in most cases no organic pathology is identified. Up to 50% of women who present with menorrhagia have blood losses within the…

Endothelin receptor expression in human decidua

Molecular human reproduction ·doi:10.1093/molehr/4.2.185

The endothelins are signalling peptides that act via two receptors, ET(A) and ET(B). In the human endometrium, endothelin receptors have been demonstrated in glands and stroma and have been shown to vary during the course of the menstrual c…

Epidermal growth factor in human endometrium: proliferative effects in culture and immunocytochemical localization in normal and endometriotic tissues

Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/oxfordjournals.humrep.a137512

Endometrial proliferation is stimulated by oestradiol. The precise mechanism is poorly understood, but may be mediated by epidermal growth factor (EGF). The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of oestradiol and EGF on glandul…

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding

Bailliere's clinical obstetrics and gynaecology ·doi:10.1016/s0950-3552(89)80024-0

The diagnosis of DUB is made by the exclusion of organic disease as a cause of the abnormal menses; the condition accounts for about 80% of cases of menorrhagia. Of these, over 80% will have no abnormality of the hypothalamo-pituitary-ovari…

Endometrial prostaglandins in women with abnormal menstrual bleeding

Prostaglandins, leukotrienes, and medicine ·doi:10.1016/0262-1746(87)90014-x

Endogenous prostaglandin (PG) concentrations (6oxo PGF1 alpha, PGE, PGF2 alpha) have been measured by radioimmunoassay in the endometrium of women with objectively assessed menstrual blood loss (MBL). The concentration of PGE and "total" PG…

The effects of danazol, mefenamic acid, norethisterone and a progesterone-impregnated coil on endometrial prostaglandin concentrations in women with menorrhagia

Prostaglandins ·doi:10.1016/0090-6980(87)90267-x

The effects of four medical treatments have been assessed on menstrual blood loss (MBL) and endometrial prostaglandin (PG) concentrations in 30 women with objectively confirmed menorrhagia. Patients were randomly treated with danazol, 200 m…

Prostaglandins in the human uterus: an interaction between endometrium and myometrium

Prostaglandins, leukotrienes, and medicine ·doi:10.1016/0262-1746(85)90122-2

The interaction between the prostaglandin production of the human endometrium and myometrium has been further investigated using intact pieces of endometrium in homogenates of myometrium. There was an increase in the production of 6 oxo PGF…
