The current therapy study with 50 patients showed that a reversible down regulation of the ovaries is possible. Particularly in cases with severe endometriosis a rapid release of pain can usually be achieved. Further development of the disease could be prevented and in two third of the cases even a partial reduction of tumor size. Within 12 weeks after the therapy the cycle is normally stabilized. But in about 70% of the patients the typical complaints of endometriosis were recurrent. The advantage of this treatment is the high acceptance of the patients in comparison to steroid medication. In long term administration it is mandatory to control bone and lipid metabolism.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007986 Luteinizing Hormone A major gonadotropin secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR). Luteinizing hormone regulates steroid production by the interstitial cells of the TESTIS and the OVARY. The preovulatory LUTEINIZING HORMONE surge in females induces OVULATION, and subsequent LUTEINIZATION of the follicle. LUTEINIZING HORMONE consists of two noncovalently linked subunits, alpha and beta. Within a species, the alpha subunit is common in the three pituitary glycoprotein hormones (TSH, LH and FSH), but the beta subunit is unique and confers its biological specificity.

D011374 Progesterone The major progestational steroid that is secreted primarily by the CORPUS LUTEUM and the PLACENTA. Progesterone acts on the UTERUS, the MAMMARY GLANDS and the BRAIN. It is required in EMBRYO IMPLANTATION; PREGNANCY maintenance, and the development of mammary tissue for MILK production. Progesterone, converted from PREGNENOLONE, also serves as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of GONADAL STEROID HORMONES and adrenal CORTICOSTEROIDS.
