prednisone and Primary Ovarian Insufficiency

prednisone has been researched along with Primary Ovarian Insufficiency in 12 studies

Prednisone: A synthetic anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid derived from CORTISONE. It is biologically inert and converted to PREDNISOLONE in the liver.
prednisone : A synthetic glucocorticoid drug that is particularly effective as an immunosuppressant, and affects virtually all of the immune system. Prednisone is a prodrug that is converted by the liver into prednisolone (a beta-hydroxy group instead of the oxo group at position 11), which is the active drug and also a steroid.

Primary Ovarian Insufficiency: Cessation of ovarian function after MENARCHE but before the age of 40, without or with OVARIAN FOLLICLE depletion. It is characterized by the presence of OLIGOMENORRHEA or AMENORRHEA, elevated GONADOTROPINS, and low ESTRADIOL levels. It is a state of female HYPERGONADOTROPIC HYPOGONADISM. Etiologies include genetic defects, autoimmune processes, chemotherapy, radiation, and infections. The most commonly known genetic cause is the expansion of a CGG repeat to 55 to 199 copies in the 5' untranslated region in the X-linked FMR1 gene.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Since these regimens may cause premature ovarian failure (POF), the ovarian function was studied in 13 consecutive women aged < or =40 years, treated with four cycles of intensified CHOP (cyclophosphamide 2000-3000 mg/m2 per cycle doxorubicin 50 mg/m2, vincristine 1."2.71Fertility and ovarian function are preserved in women treated with an intensified regimen of cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, vincristine and prednisone (Mega-CHOP) for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. ( Avivi, I; Ben Shahar, M; Blumenfeld, Z; Dann, EJ; Epelbaum, R; Haim, N; Rowe, JM, 2005)
