ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To investigate the efficacy and safety of ulipristal acetate (UPA) for long-term treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids."9.19Long-term treatment of uterine fibroids with ulipristal acetate ☆. ( Barlow, DH; Bestel, E; Bouchard, P; Donnez, J; Donnez, O; Fauser, BC; Loumaye, E; Nouri, K; Osterloh, I; Palacios, S; Tomaszewski, J; Vázquez, F, 2014)
" The ultra-low dose of ethinyl estradiol did not impact scheduled bleeding or intensity of bleeding, but we observed a slight decline in amenorrhea and slight increase in unscheduled bleeding in obese women compared with other BMI categories."5.22Body mass index does not affect the efficacy or bleeding profile during use of an ultra-low-dose combined oral contraceptive. ( Archer, DF; Nakajima, ST; Pappadakis, J, 2016)
"To investigate the efficacy and safety of ulipristal acetate (UPA) for long-term treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids."5.19Long-term treatment of uterine fibroids with ulipristal acetate ☆. ( Barlow, DH; Bestel, E; Bouchard, P; Donnez, J; Donnez, O; Fauser, BC; Loumaye, E; Nouri, K; Osterloh, I; Palacios, S; Tomaszewski, J; Vázquez, F, 2014)
"The incidence and duration of vaginal bleeding were assessed throughout the study."2.71Reduced vaginal bleeding in postmenopausal women who receive combined norethindrone acetate and low-dose ethinyl estradiol therapy versus combined conjugated equine estrogens and medroxyprogesterone acetate therapy. ( Liu, JH; Shumel, BS; Simon, JA; Speroff, L; Symons, JP, 2003)
" Parameters like age of the patients, body mass index (BMI), dosage of the estrogen during pretreatment did not influence the results considerably."2.70[Amenorrhea rate after switch from sequential hormone replacement therapy to continuous combined administration of low dose estradiol and norethisterone acetate]. ( Kretschmar, S; Rakov, V; Von Holst, T, 2002)
"Amenorrhea is a clinical condition characterized by failure of menarche or by the absence of menstruation for six months in a woman with previous periodic menses."1.31Cyclic estrogen-progestin hormone therapy as a new therapeutic approach in the treatment of functional alterations of the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovary axis: case reports. ( Russo, P; Trimarchi, CP, 2002)
" This study shows that estrogen/progestogen treatment in standard contraceptive dosage usually leads to only moderate and non-progressive stimulation of pituitary activity in women with hyperprolactinemic amenorrhea, but occasional excessive growth of a prolactinoma can occur and treatment needs to be monitored."1.28The effect of combined estrogen/progestogen treatment in women with hyperprolactinemic amenorrhea. ( Fahy, UM; Foster, PA; Hartog, M; Hull, MG; Torode, HW, 1992)
"The busulfan which she was receiving at that time was stopped and amniocentesis revealed a normal karyotype."1.27Reversible busulfan-induced ovarian failure. ( Milwidsky, A; Rahav, G; Shalev, O, 1987)
