Electroacupuncture for Diminished Ovarian Reserve

Irregular Menses

Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR)is a disease can not be cured. Medicine for DOR includes dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), hormone replacement therapy (HRT), immunosuppressive agents and alternative therapy, etc. Electroacupuncture (EA) can help patients regain regular menses, increase the estradiol (E2) level and decrease the follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and decrease FSH/luteotropic (LH) ratio. In this cohort study, we aim to observe the effect of EA versus other therapies for DOR.

Combination Therapy With Myo-inositol and Folic Acid Versus Myo-inositol Alone

Polycystic Ovary SyndromeHirsutism1 more

Previous studies have demonstrated that Myo-inositol is capable of restoring spontaneous ovarian activity, and consequently fertility, in most patients with PCOS. The aim of our study is to investigate the role of folic acid conteined in the inositol preparation. The study group included 50 patients, randomly allocated to subgroup A (myo-inositol 1500 gr) and subgroup B (myo-inositol 2000 gr + folic acid 200 mcg). The investigation include menstrual pattern and hirsutism score evaluation, hormonal assays, oral glucose tolerance test, euglycemic hyperinsulinaemic clamp and lipide profile at baseline and after six months of treatment.

Comparison of Serum C Type Natriuretic Peptide Levels Between Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Patients...

Polycystic Ovary Syndromec Type Natriuretic Peptide2 more

Recent studies have shown that C natriuretic peptide is produced from granulosa cells, increasing cumulative guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) production by affecting cumulus cells through natriuretic peptide receptors. It is suggested that produced cGMP maintains the transport of oocytes via the gap junctions and leads to a continuous increase in cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels in the oocyte. An important role of increased internal cAMP levels in the oocyte is shown to suppress meiotic progression. Deoxyribonucleic acid studies in animals have shown that expression of the natriuretic peptide precursor increases during the periovulatory period and shows that this increase decreases rapidly after luteinizing hormone / human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) stimulation.Human studies have shown that after ovulation induction, the CNP level in follicular fluid decreases following ovulatory dose of hCG.Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disease in the reproductive period, characterized by hyperandrogenism, oligo-anovulation, and polycystic ovarian morphology on ultrasonography, and in an animal study investigating the relationship between CNP and PCOS, serum CNP levels were increased in polycystic ovary syndrome.CNP serum level is thought to show differences between healthy women and women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Endocrine and Menstrual Disturbances in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

Polycystic Ovary SyndromeInsulin Resistance2 more

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder in reproductive age women, which causes disordered follicle growth and ovulation resulting in infertility. In addition women with PCOS have hyperandrogenemia and a dysregulated hormonal profile, resulting in altered feedback on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. Obesity, insulin resistance, vitamin D (VD) deficiency and ageing worsen the symptoms. The gonadotrophins - follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) & luteinising hormone (LH), along with the pregnancy hormone human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) have structural similarities. The altered levels of FSH and LH in women with PCOS cause production of hCG from the brain leading to false positive pregnancy tests. Part one of this project will involve the investigation of this over-production of hCG in urine and serum of women with PCOS to develop suitable ovulation and pregnancy test kits, in collaboration with Swiss Precision Diagnostics (SPD). In Part two of the project, we would like to see if intervention with VD supplementation and/or using myo-inositol supplement compared with metformin (insulin sensitiser), improves prediabetes, distribution of fat/water content, weight loss and menstrual cyclicity in women with PCOS. We aim to correlate these interventions with particular serum & urine markers to develop better diagnostic tools.

The Effect of Liposuction on Menses: a Retrospective Study

Menstrual Irregularity

The prevalence of obesity nearly tripled from 1975 to 2021, resulting in liposuction, as an effective shaping method, to be performed more frequently. Liposuction is a surgical procedure that uses a specialized instrument to suck fat fragments in the subcutaneous fat layer through a small incision. Analyzing a large sample sizes of patients who had liposuction, we found that some female patients underwent menstrual irregularity after liposuction. In 2004, Carolyn et al. reported several cases in which there was a connection between liposuction and an early onset of menses. Further studies showed that an early onset of menses may be related to the volume of adipose tissue extracted, the amount of anesthesia given, the area of liposuction, and body weight. However, the sample of that study was small, as there were only 17 cases included in the statistical model, and there are few articles in which the impact of liposuction on menses has been studied. To better understand whether menstrual irregularity will occur after liposuction, patients with postmenopausal or preoperative menstrual irregularity were excluded, leaving a sample of 518 female patients to be reviewed. A better understanding of the impact of liposuction on menses may help clinical doctors predict the underlying risk of menstrual irregularity after liposuction and identify individuals at higher risk. The findings may contribute to further understanding of menstrual irregularity.
