SummaryThe risk of thromboembolic events (TE) is increased by acquired or inherited thrombo -philias (IT). We know that some hormonal contraceptives also increase the risk of thrombosis, thus, the use of such contraceptives are discussed as contraindications in women with IT. TEs are infrequent events in children and adolescents and in the majority of cases are associated with secondary complications from underlying chronic illness. Although adolescents are not typically considered to be at high-risk for TE, this cohort is frequently using hormonal contraception, leading to an increased risk in cases with unknown IT. The risk of TE with pregnancy alone is higher than associated with combined hormonal contra -ception. Progestin-only methods have not been found to increase the risk of TE with only moderate changes of coagulation proteins compared to normal reference values. Conclusion: Thrombophilic women are good candidates for progestin-only contraceptive methods.

Combined Hormonal Contraception

The review of the literature presents data on the possible risks of using combined hormonal contraception and the possibilities of prescribing purely progestogenic contraception as an alternative to the use of combined means. Progestogen contraceptives include a group of agents with different routes of administration, doses and characteristics of progestins, which have a number of differences in the ratio of benefits and risks, availability, reversibility and other properties of contraception. Particular attention is paid to purely progestogenic tablets containing desogestrel, as a means equivalent in effectiveness to combination contraceptives, but safer. Safety issues are considered in the context of the use of breastfeeding women, as well as from the standpoint of the risk of arterial and venous thrombosis. The issues of non-contraceptive positive effects of purely progestogenic contraceptives are covered.

Chlormadinone Acetate

Relevance. Currently, women make up more than 40% of the global workforce and more than half of students studying at universities around the world. Women's education, especially at a high level, tends to increase female employment. The mismatch of the style and rhythm of modern life with a genetically determined and working millennium reproductive program requires the choice of a specific approach to social adaptation. Aim. Analysis of literary sources on the use of hormonal contraception as a method of social adaptation. Materials and methods. To write this review, domestic and foreign publications were searched in Russian and international search systems (PubMed, eLibrary, etc.) for the last 2-10 years. The review included articles from peer-reviewed literature. Results. The review describes the features of modern hormonal contraceptives. Their non-contraceptive effects are presented. The individual non-contraceptive effects of a combined oral contraceptive containing 30 mg of ethinyl estradiol and 2 mg of chlormadinone acetate were determined. It has been established that the use of this contraceptive helps to improve the well-being and mood of patients, which allows you to actively use this contraceptive in routine clinical practice with premenstrual syndrome, dysmenorrhea, without the use of analgesics. Conclusions. The numerous positive effects of ethinyl estradiol and chlormadinone acetate allow the use of the drug as a means to increase social adaptation, and, consequently, improve the quality of life.

<p>Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. In Indonesia every year 1: 3 women per 1000 population are affected by breast cancer. Breast cancer is a cancer that attacks most women. The incidence of breast cancer is currently estimated at 39 per 100,000 population in 2008. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors associated with the risk of female breast cancer in surgical outpatient poly patients at Dr. Achmad Mochtar, Bukittinggi City. This study uses descriptive analytic method with a case control approach. The sampling technique in this study was accidental sampling. The sample in this study were all women diagnosed with breast cancer, amounting to 50 cases and 50 controls with data processing through computerization. The instrument used in this study is a questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using Chi-Square test (α = 0.05). The results showed that the factors associated with the incidence of breast cancer were genetic (p = 0.009), menarche (p = 0.014), menopause (p = 0.016), hormonal contraception (p = 0,045), obesity (p = 0,043), and high food fat (p = 0.028).  Conclusions of the study are factors related to the risk of breast cancer incidence are genetic, menarche, menopause, hormonal contraception, obesity and high-fat foods.<br /> </p><p>Penyakit kanker merupakan salah satu penyebab kematian utama di seluruh dunia.

Background and Objectives: Uterine fibroids develop in 25–40% of women of childbearing age; however, there are discrepancies resulting from population and socioeconomic differences. The pathogenesis of fibroids is not clear. The aim of the study was to assess the potential connection between the use of oral contraceptives and the occurrence of uterine fibroids in women of childbearing age. Materials and Methods: In this prospective, survey, case–control study, data were collected from Caucasian female patients (mean age = 30) using a questionnaire concerning the onset, duration and form of hormonal contraception, and medical and obstetrical history. The questionnaires were handed personally to hospitalized patients as well as distributed through Google forms on social media. Results: In a study group (n = 140) of patients using hormonal contraception, 37.8% of them were diagnosed with uterine fibroids, whereas among the patients not using hormonal contraception (n = 206), uterine fibroids were diagnosed in 59.6% of the patients. The most common hormonal contraception was two-component hormonal tablets used by 93.3% of the patients. Taking contraceptives was a uterine fibroids protective factor (OR = 0.4, p = 0.007). In the study group, 5.5% of the patients were pregnant and 60.42% were diagnosed with uterine fibroids (OR = 4.4, p < 0.000001). Conclusion: Contraception was found to be a protective factor for uterine fibroids among the women surveyed. The presented data confirm the theory about the hormonal dependence of uterine fibroids.
