The objective: of research is to evaluate course of pregnancy and labor in women with premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Patients and methods. The research included 200 women of reproductive age with diagnosis of PMS and 50 women without diagnosis of PMS. Data of reproductive and obstetrical history were collected. Results. We determined that women with PMS have more pregnancies (in 1.59 times, c2=10.74, p=0.001) and labors (in 1.70 times, c2=10.56, p=0.001) compared with controls. Also they have a tendency for development of pathological course of pregnancy and labor. Complications of pregnancy and labor are the most typical for patients with edematous form of syndrome compared with healthy individuals (c2=4.71, p=0.03, OR=3.92, 95%CI=1.27–12.06, p=0.02). These persons have a greater share of late gestosis – in 4,55 times significantly greater incidences – 47.82% versus 10.52% of women in control group (c2=6.51, p=0.01, OR=7.79, 95%CI=1.61–37.65, p=0.01). Conclusion. Special attention should be paid to women with edematous form of PMS, which are significantly more marked the development of late gestosis. These women are at risk of pathological labor – caesarean section, forceps, hypotonic/atonic postpartum uterine bleeding and preterm labor. Key words: premenstrual syndrome, pregnancy, labor, complications.

Aim: to characterize the function of the reproductive system in women after organ-preserving surgery for uterine myoma: hysteroresectoscopic (HRS) myomectomy and laparoscopic (LS) myomectomy.Materials and methods. Forty one patients were examined and divided into 2 groups: Group 1 – 18 patients after HRS myomectomy and Group 2 – 23 patients after LS myomectomy. The control group included 20 healthy women of reproductive age.Results. The HRS operation led to a significant decrease in the production of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), estradiol and progesterone, while the levels of luteinizing (LH) and follicle-stimulating (FSH) hormones increased. After myomectomy performed by the laparoscopic access, the levels of estradiol, progesterone, and AMH decreased but the levels of both LH and FSH increased so that the ratio LH/FSH remained unchanged. Almost all indices of gonadotropic and steroid hormone production became normalized over 6 months of the postoperative period.Conclusion. The main factors of unfavorable prognosis in patients with ovarian tecoma are tumor necrosis, degree of malignancy and mitotic activity.

Objective. The aim was to study the characteristics of reproductive function in women of fertile age with infertility and hyperfunction of the thyroid gland. Materials and methods. The object of the study was 148 women of fertile age. To compare the indicators obtained by special methods, the control group included the indicators of laboratory and instrumental examination of 30 non-pregnant women of reproductive age. Reproductive function was evaluated in 118 women with hyperthyroidism: 58 retrospectively (group I) and 60 prospectively (group II); the control group consisted of 30 healthy women of reproductive age. Hormonal studies were performed by radioimmune and enzyme immunoassay methods using the automatic analyzer "Cobb" ("Hoffmann La Roche", Switzerland), as well as DPS test systems the analyzer Immulite (USA). Ultrasound of the thyroid gland was performed by a linear sensor with a frequency of 7.5 MHz. The volume of the thyroid gland was calculated according to the Bruno formula. Results. For women of fertile age with hyperthyroidism, a decrease in ovarian reserve is characteristic that is manifested by a significant increase in FSH level (14.1 3.1 IU / L, p 0.05), and a decrease in inhibin B level (35.9 12,7 pg / ml, p 0.05). In 47.7 % of women of fertile age with hyperthyroidism, there is a decrease in ovarian volume and a significant reduction in the average number of antral follicles of normal size (4.34 1.56, p 0.05). Conclusions. Based on the results obtained, it can be assumed that in diffuse toxic goiter there are not only functional disorders (metabolism of hormones of the reproductive system), but also deep organic changes in the structure of the ovaries that leads to a rapid suppression of their functions. In cases of thyroid diseases, the clinical manifestation of these changes is premature and early menopause.

Uterine myomas (fibroids) are the most common benign tumors in women and occur in 20%–40% of women of reproductive age. Myomas are benign monoclonal tumors that develop from the smooth muscle cells of the myometrium. Most pregnant women with myomas do not have complications during pregnancy, but complications can occur. Among the complications, pain is the most common, and the risks of miscarriage, preterm labor and delivery, abnormal positioning of the fetus, and placental abruption increase slightly. There are also concerns about the potential effects of uterine myomas on infertility and reproductive function. Therefore, there are frequent clinical concerns about the presence of myomas during pregnancy; however, the treatments are unclear. In this study, we summarize the latest trends in uterine myomas and pregnancy and consider the treatments.

The article presents the comparative analysis of the state of the cervix in women with endometrial polyps and micropolyps. Patients and methods. The study involved 130 patients aged 18-35 years: 70 patients with endometrial polyps (group I), 30 patients with micropolyps (group II) and 30 patients of the control group (group III). Results. According to the anamnesis of women in the I group were significantly more frequent diseases of the cervix, which corrected physical surgery methods, in particular cryodestruction. In group II, the representatives of these indicators were similar to healthy. Normal colposcopic picture met significantly less frequently in patients and I, and II group. The differences in the incidence of HPV high oncogenic risk in all groups were not statistically significant. Conclusion. Destructive methods used in the detection of any changes in the cervix are often overly aggressive, form scars and contributing to inflamaciones process. In the chain of events leading to the formation of PE, cervical pathology and its correction can take the basic place. Key words: endometrial polyp, micropolyps, chronic endometritis, uterine cervix, colposcopy.

The aim of the study: to study the efficacy and safety of use Mastofemin in the treatment of various forms of mastitis in women of reproductive age. Materials and methods. The study included 62 women of reproductive age (mean age of 33.5±2.3 years) who were screened in the Kiev city center reproductive and perinatal medicine. Women were divided into 2 groups. The first (main) group consisted of 32 patients who received the proposed treatment using herbal remedies Mastofemin 1 capsule 2 times per day for 3 months; 30 patients of the second (control) group were under observation and received no treatment. These groups were representative and homogeneous on age, clinical symptoms and sonographic characteristics. The clinical method included evaluation of complaints of patients, anamnesis, presence of concomitant gynecologic pathology, inspection, palpation of the lymph nodes and the breast and obtaining a discharge from the nipples to conduct cytological examination, which allowed excluding from the study women with suspected malignancy of the process. All the patients were performed ultrasound examination of the breast. The review was supplemented with vaginal gynecological examination and ultrasound examination of small pelvis organs to assess the condition of the uterus and its appendages, the diagnosis of gynecological diseases. Results. Summarizing obtained in this study results one should stress the positive long-term effect of applying Mastofemin for the treatment of proliferative changes of the breast in women of reproductive age. This is manifested by a decrease in the intensity of clinical signs of mastitis, consistent with the results of sonographic control. Established positive dynamics in the treatment of cystic mastitis, dectective and when combined cystic mastopathy with dectective. In the control group of patients for a given observation period (6 months) no significant changes in clinical signs of mastitis and sonographic characteristics. Regression of disease has not occurred in any of the patients, in 2 patients increased sensitivity of the breast after 6 months moved to the soreness. Sonographic characteristics of mastitis during the observation period did not change. Thus, the use of Mastofemin aimed at pathogenetic treatment of mastitis and prevention of breast cancer. Conclusion. Application of Mastofemin during the treatment of mastitis in women of reproductive age significantly improves the clinical condition of patients; reduce the subjective and objective symptoms of the disease. The positive effect of the treatment with Mastofemin proved in the case of the treatment of sonographic following forms of mastitis: cystic mastopathy, cystic mastopathy with dectectasy. Mastofemin may be the drug of choice for complex conservative monotherapy in women of reproductive age with proliferative changes in the breast, and can also be used as part of complex treatment in patients with diffuse changes of the breast when combined with hyperplastic processes of the myometrium and endometrium.

The objective: to study the prevalence of ovarian endometriosis in women of reproductive age, the features of clinical and ultrasound picture of endometriosis. Patients and methods. The study involved 22 patients with endometriomas, the control group – 50 women gynecological and somatically healthy. Results. The incidence of ovarian endometriomas in the structure of benign tumor-like formations of ovaries is 0.62%. In 72.73% of ovarian endometriomas occur on a background of concomitant gynecological pathology. Clinically, in 77.27% of cases there is a pain syndrome, in 59.09% – algomenorrhea, in 13.64% – infertility; 18.18% of cases endometriomas remain «dumb» and proceed with the erased clinical picture. Sonologically in patients with endometriomas adenomyosis, endometrial hyperplasia, changes in the contralateral ovary are determined. Conclusion. Without additional methods of diagnostic gynecological examination may identify the 3 cm tumor-like formation of the ovary with different characteristics, which does not allow to differentiate endometrioma from inflammation, functional and ovarian tumors. Ultrasound can diagnose pathological ovarian formation of 1 cm, detailing the nature of the cyst. Key words: endometriosis, reproductive age, retrospective analysis, ultrasound.

Abstract STUDY QUESTIONS Does the application of anti-adhesion gel, compared to no gel, following operative hysteroscopy to treat intrauterine pathology in women wishing to conceive increase the chance of conception leading to live birth? WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) following operative hysteroscopy may impair reproductive success in women of reproductive age. Anti-adhesion barrier gels may decrease the occurrence of IUAs, but the evidence on their effectiveness to improve reproductive outcomes is sparse and of low quality. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION This multicentre, parallel group, superiority, blinded and pragmatic randomised controlled trial is being carried out in seven participating centres in Belgium. Recruitment started in April 2019. Women will be randomly allocated to treatment with anti-adhesion gel (intervention group) or no gel (control group). Sterile ultrasound gel will be applied into the vagina as a mock-procedure in both treatment arms. The patient, fertility physician and gynaecologist performing the second-look hysteroscopy are unaware of the allocated treatment. Power analysis, based on a target improvement of 15% in conception leading to live birth using anti-adhesion gel, a power of 85%, a significance level of 5%, and a drop-out rate of 10%, yielded a number of 444 patients to be randomised. The baseline rate of conception leading to live birth in the control group is expected to be 45%. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS Women of reproductive age (18–47 years), wishing to conceive (spontaneously or by fertility treatment) and scheduled for operative hysteroscopy to treat intrauterine pathology (endometrial polyps, myomas with uterine cavity deformation, uterine septa, IUAs or retained products of conception) are eligible for recruitment. Women may try to conceive from 3 to 6 weeks after receiving allocated treatment with follow-up ending at 30 weeks after treatment. If the woman fails to conceive within this timeframe, a second-look hysteroscopy will be scheduled within 2–6 weeks to check for IUAs. The primary endpoint is conception leading to live birth, measured at 30 weeks after randomisation. The secondary endpoints are time to conception, clinical pregnancy, miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy rates, measured at 30 weeks after receiving allocated treatment. The long-term follow-up starts when the patient is pregnant and she will be contacted every trimester. STUDY FUNDING/COMPETING INTEREST(S) This work is funded by the Belgian Healthcare Knowledge Centre (KCE). The anti-adhesion gel is supplied at no cost by Nordic Pharma and without conditions. Dr. Tomassetti reports grants and non-financial support from Merck SA, non-financial support from Ferring SA, personal fees and non-financial support from Gedeon-Richter, outside the submitted work.

The aim: The aim of the study was to improve the results of treatment of patients with endometriosis by using a combination method of therapy. Materials and methods: For two years, 136 women of reproductive age who underwent laparoscopic surgeries for ovarian endometriosis were monitored: Group I (n = 24) did not receive any hormonal treatment in the perioperative period; Group II (n = 32) – received gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists within 3 months after surgery; Group III (n = 80) prior to laparoscopic removal of the ovarian cyst used gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists – Triptorelin 3.75 mg intramuscularly for 2 months, as well as three months after surgery. The control group consisted of 30 healthy women of reproductive age with regular menstrual periods. All patients underwent transvaginal ultrasound, counting the number of antral follicles before and after treatment. Serum hormone levels (FSH, prolactin, thyrotropic hormone, anti-Mullerian hormone, inhibin B) were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay on Cobas e-411 analyzer (Roche Diagnostics, Switzerland) on day 2-3 of the menstrual cycle and on day 2–3 of the first menstrual period after the end of treatment. Laparoscopic removal of the cyst was performed with exfoliation of the cyst, hemostasis on the wound surface of the bed of the cyst was performed with a bipolar electrocoagulator. Bipolar coagulation and resection of the ovarian tissue with no potential was used during surgical treatment of the ovaries, which made it possible to preserve the intact portion of the ovary as much as possible. Results: Analysis of ovarian reserve indices, namely number of antral foliculs, number of antral follicles, AMG, and inhibin B levels in all examined patients with ovarian endometriomas were significantly lower than those of the control group before the start of treatment: in the ovarian endometrial group group 1.26 times (p <0.01), inhibin B – 1.5 times (p <0.01), the number of antral follicles – 1.2 times (p <0.01), due to the development dystrophic changes of the follicular apparatus due to prolonged compression, hypoxia, fibrosis in the ovaries. Patients who planned pregnancy were advised to have an active sexual life before menstruation was restored. In 23 (46.9%) of 49 patients who had reproductive plans, pregnancy occurred without first menstruation after a course of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists, 12 (24.5%) women became pregnant during the first three menstrual cycles. Extracorporeal fertilization was recommended for women who did not have pregnancy within 6 months of surgery. For two years in women who did not plan pregnancy, recurrence of endometriosis was not observed. Conclusions: The combination of laparoscopic treatment with gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists in patients with endometriosis with infertility allowed to restore reproductive function in 71.4% of women, which indicates the effectiveness of the treatment method used. In addition, it helps to achieve lasting remission and addresses the socio-social problems of women’s health and maternity.

Objective. To analyze pathogenetic mechanisms underlying the development of endometrial hyperplasia in women of reproductive age. Patients and methods. We have examined 143 women of reproductive age with endometrial hyperplasia (EH). Study participants were divided into three groups: Group I included EH patients without atypia; Group II included patients with atypical hyperplasia of the endometrium; Group III (control group) comprised 56 women with abnormal uterine bleeding, in whom we excluded adenomyosis, uterine fibroids, endometrial hyperplasia, endometrial cancer, and iatrogenic causes of uterine bleeding. Genomic DNA was isolated using phenol-chloroform extraction. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect microRNA-210, -18a, -221, and -222. The detection of tumor pyruvate kinase M2 was performed using the ScheBo® Tumor M2-PK kit designed for quantitative assessment of this metabolic cancer marker in plasma and endometrial tissue samples. Results. Significant risk factors triggering the pathogenetic mechanism of EH development in reproductive age include extragenital disorders (obesity, thyroid diseases, diseases of the urinary system, hypertension) and gynecological diseases (pelvic inflammatory diseases, adenomyosis, benign breast dysplasia, uterine fibroids). Alterations affecting estrogen receptors lead to changes in microRNA messengers, which, in turn, affect target genes and cause changes in the adaptive abilities of the cell. Expression of pyruvate kinase M2 in this chain confirms proapoptotic changes in the cell and the risk of its atypia. Conclusion. The pathogenesis of EH is based on the following factors: polymorphism of the ERS1 and PRG genes, increased expression of miRNA-210, -18a, and -222, decreased expression of miRNA-221, and overexpression of pyruvate kinase M2. Key words: endometrial hyperplasia, miRNA, pyruvate kinase M2, progesterone receptors, estrogen receptors
