ABSTRACT
Background@#To investigate relapse rates after the successful treatment of patients with non-atypical endometrial hyperplasia (EH) either a levonorgestrel impregnated intrauterine system (LNG-IUS; MIRENA®) or two regimens of oral dydrogesterone (DGS) after primary histological response. Currently, the incidence of EH is indistinctly reported to be around 200,000 new EH cases per year in Western countries.@*Methods@#Patients were at their choice assigned to one of the following three treatment arms: LNG-IUS; 10 mg of oral DGS administered for 10 days per cycle for 6 months; or 10 mg of oral DGS administered daily for 6 months. The women were followed for 6 months after ending therapy. [Figure2] Women aged 25-55 years with low or medium risk endometrial hyperplasia met the inclusion criteria, and 35 completed the therapy. @*Results@#Histological relapse was observed in 55/ (41%) women who had an initial complete treatment response. The relapse rates were similar in the three therapy groups (P = 0.66). In our study involved 25-55 (mean 42.2±1.61) aged 35 women. Among them had reproductive aged 31.43% (n= 11) premenopausal women 42.86 % (n= 15) postmenopausal women 25.71% (n= 9). Their mean body mass index had 28.8±1.15 kg/m², and normal weight 34.29% (n=12), overweight 34.29% (n=12), obese 17.14% (n=6), extremely obese 14.29 % (n=5). [Figure3] Types of obesity had normal 37.14% (n=13), android 25.71% (n=9), gynecoid 37.14% (n=13). Mean parity had 1.8±0.19 to nulliparous 14.29% (n=5), primiparous 60% (n=21), multiparous 25.71% (n=9). Smoke 17.14% (n=6). Non combined disease had 65.7% (n=23), diabetes mellitus 17.14% (n=6), PCOS 14.29% (n=5), cardiovascular disease had 2.86% (n=1). [Table1] Mean endometrial thickness of TVUS had ( 16.0±0.91mm). Smoke (p=0.0391), types of obesity (p=0.0436) and myoma of the uterus (p=0.0187) seen affected the endometrial thickness. LNG-IUD group had after treatment’s menstrual period 11.11% heavy 80ml (n=1), 88.89% light 5ml (n=8). DGS (5-25 day) group had after treatment’s menstrual period 9.09% heavy =80ml (n=1), 90.91% light5ml (n=10), DGS (16-25 day) group after treatment menstrual period 40% heavy 80ml (n=6), 46.67% normal 5-80ml (n=7), 13.33% light 5ml (n=2) байв. Therefore between the three treatment groups had no differences. But treatment’s before and after result had statistics probability differences (P= 0.4064). [Figure4] @*Conclusions@#Finally, given the long natural history of menorrhagia, study outcomes need to be assessed over a period that is longer than 2 years. In conclusion, our study showed that both the LNG-IUD, oral progestin treatment reduced the adverse effect of menorrhagia on women’s lives over the course of two years. LNG-IUD was the more effective first choice, as assessed impact of bleeding on the women’s quality of life.
ABSTRACT
Background@#The knowledge about the normal and abnormal vaginal microbiome has changed over the last years. The normal and the abnormal vaginal microbiota are complex ecosystems of more than 200 bacterial species influenced by genes, ethnic background and environmental and behavioral factors. Major changes in the vaginal physiology and microbiota over a woman’s lifetime are largely shaped by transitional periods such as puberty, menopause and pregnancy. Many studies have shown that bacterial vaginitis (BV) has an increased risk of preterm birth, miscarriage, premature rupture of membran, and postpartum uterine inflammation and sepsis. To assess different bacterial and epidemiological factors associations with increased vaginal pH in the women of reproductive age.@*Methods@#In the 1st Health center of Bayanzurkh district hospital, 100 non-pregnant women were randomly selected between 18-45 years of age. Women were submitted to an interview, vaginal examination and vaginal specimen collection for pH measurement and microscopy. Descriptive statistics are reported for the vaginal pH according to a specially designed survey card, the survey respondents assessed the status of the mother’s health.@*Results@#The non pregnant group studied herein were mostly young adults with ages in the age range 25-29 (32.0; 32%, mean±SD: 29.1±5.7) years. The vaginal pH mean in non-pregnant women was 4.5±0.5. Elevated vaginal pH was signicantly associated with bacterial vaginosis (p < 0.001), and bacterial vaginosis flora (p < 0.001). 162 of 200 women (81%) had an increased vaginal pH. 65,8% of participants in research were normal nugent score.@*Conclusion@#In non-pregnant women, the vaginal pH mean was 4.5 ± 0.5. Changes in vaginal pH are statistically significant with age, and clinical manifestations. /р<0.05/. The human vaginal ecosystem is a dynamic environment in which microbes can affect host physiology but also where host physiology can affect the composition and function of the vaginal microbiota.
ABSTRACT
Introduction@#PCOS prevalence is 5-10 percent among reproductive age women in worldwide. It is caused by imbalance of sex hormones which ultimately leads to menstrual irregularities, infertility, anovulation and other metabolic disturbances. Most women with chronic anovulation is caused by polycystic ovary syndrome [PCOS] The Rotterdam criteria is useful diagnostic tool for PCOS. In Mongolia there is almost no study on PCOS related infertility and there are increasing trend infertility among reproductive aged women with PCOS, lead us to conduct the study. @*Objective@#The aim of this study was to estimate incidence of PCOS and to study clinical and biochemical characteristics of PCOS among infertility women.@*Material and Methods@#We used the cross-sectional and case control study designs. Total 1334 infertility women enrolled in this study. The study was conducted after approval from the Ethical and research review board of the hospital, and written informed consent was taken from all the women. Among 114 women with PCOS were found by Rotterdam’s criteria at the Infertility and reproductive department, National Center for Maternal and Child Health, between December, 2018 - 2019. Total of 43 females with PCOS were screened among 1334 infertile women. All parameters were assessed either with ELISA in 43 infertile PCOS women and 17 age matched apparently healthy controls diagnosed according to Rotterdam consensus. IDF diagnostic criteria for MS was used. The PCOS patients divided into following groups: (1) with MS ( n=42) and (2) without MS (n=72).@*Results@#The main age, body mass index (BMI), and duration of infertility were 28.7±4.1 years, 27.3±5.2 kg/ m² and 4.4±3.1y, respectively. Among patients 57.9% of them have oligomenorrhea, 22.8% with amenorrhea, primary infertility 57.0% and 51.9% with hirsutism and acne 50.8%. As a result of hormone assays were LH 9.3±3.5mIU/ml, LH/FSH 1.6 ±0.83 [0.1-3.6], AMH 6.1ng/ml ±3.6 /2.9-21.0/. The prevalence of MS was 36.8%. The variables including age (30.9±4.9), body mass (75.9±11.6kg) and also some metabolic parameters which is hypertension (133.6/88.4±13.6 mm Hg), WC (94.1±8.6 cm) and high triglyceride (1.8±1.0 mmol/l) were observed in MS group compared to without MS group.@*Conclusion@#Among 1334 women with infertility, the incidence of PCOS 8.7% (116), close to the prevalence in other countries. Considering the diagnose was confirmed of three criteria by the Rotterdam criteria. We found out that the prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 35.3% among infertility women with PCOS. Age, BMI, WC, amenorrhea, acne and acanthosis nigricans, were highly related to metabolic syndrome.
ABSTRACT
Background@#According to the study conducted by International Diabetes Federation, total of 127,1 million pregnant women were participated in the study and 21,7million (16,8%) of them were diagnosed as Gestational diabetes mellitus.<sup>3</sup> Maternal physical structure, figure and correlation between maternal anthropometrics and fetal measurements influence directly to fetal status, process of labor and termination of birth. During the period between 1950-1960, it was described for the very first time that gestational diabetes mellitus can lead to infant overweight.<sup>4</sup> Gestational diabetes is a condition in which a woman without diabetes develops high blood sugar levels after 24 weeks thus the risk to develop Diabetes mellitus type 2 increases. The average infant at right after birth weighs approximately 3200-3500 grams but sometimes infants with more than average weight are born. If infant weighs 4000-5000 grams and more than this, it is defined as overweighed. The infant’s weight depends on several factors. However, hereditary factors and blood glucose levels are the main cause of infant’s overweight. According to study conducted by Koyanagi et al, 2003, maternal obesity, diabetes mellitus type 2, post term pregnancy, subsequent pregnancy, maternal and paternal height and weight, maternal older age and previous history of giving birth to overweight infant can lead to infant being born overweight.<sup>7</sup>@*Methods@#The study is made by using cross sectional method of analytic study and total of 200 pregnant women from Khan-Uul, Bayangol, Chingeltey and Bayanzurkh districts who were attending the first admission of pregnancy follow-ups. According to WHO recommendation, we made diagnosis based on results of glucose tolerance test (blood glucose measurement 2 hours after giving 75 grams of sugar orally). The body mass index is calculated by using body weight and height as BMI. In full term birth, infant weighs less than 3999 grams is normal and more than 4000 grams is termed as overweight infant@*Results@#Infant weight depends on maternal age and it is statistically significant (р<0.025). Pre pregnancy weight and BMI are affecting the increasing level of blood glucose by statistically significant (р<0.005) (table 3). In addition, maternal age (0.012) and Glucose tolerance test (blood glucose level after 2 hours) (0.002) have direct correlation to infant weight and it is statistically significant respectively.</br> 96 of total (48.0%) pregnant women gave vaginal birth, 104 (52,0 %) of them have undergone caesarean section. It seems, that as fetus weight rises, frequency of caesarean section increases (table 5). Moreover, fetal weight depends on gestational physical activities rather than frequency of pregnancy and gestational weight gain (р<0.002).@*Conclusion@#Women who gave birth to overweighed infant have higher fasting blood glucose and glucose tolerance test (glucose level after 2 hours) results and higher index than mean BMI. In other words, gestational diabetes mellitus is one of the risk factors which leads to infant’s overweight.
ABSTRACT
Background@#Urinary incontinence is a common and distressful problem worldwide as well as in Mongolia. According to a survey conducted by Dr.Sanjsuren, 32.2% of participated woman were diagnosed with the urinary incontinence. To diagnose and treat this highly prevalent disease, it is important to know the most common types of incontinence in Mongolian woman and its risk factors. However, there is no known studies in Mongolia ultimately concentrated on the prevalence of common types of incontinence and its causes. Therefore, this study aimed at assessing the common types of incontinence among Mongolian woman and its key risk factors.@*Materials and Methods@#We used a cross sectional data collected from the urogynecological cabinet based on the first maternal hospital in Ulaanbaatar from June to November 2016. 117 woman aged 20-80, who has incontinence symptoms participated in this study. The type of urinary incontinence is checked by urodynamical equipment “Uromic Samba”. Participants also answered a questionnaire with a purpose of assessing the risk factors.@*Results@#Descriptive analysis shown that age, body weight, number of birth and type of delivery may be the key risk factors of incontinence. Foreinstance, the prevalence of incontinence was 6.8 % among woman aged 25-35 and increases with age 26.3 % at age 36-45, 36.4 % with age group 46-55, 30.5% with age 56-80 above respectively. According to the BMI, 81.2% percent of the participating woman with incontinence are obese. As a result of birth survey among total respondents, 59.3% had 3 or more deliveries. Association between incontinence and age, body mass index was found to be the strongest and type of the delivery was the weakest. 40% of total respondents have stress incontinence, 27% have mixed incontinence, 25% have urge incontinence, 8% have other type incontinance symptoms.@*Conclusion@#The most prevalent type of incontinence among Mongolian woman is stress incontinence followed by the urge incontinence. Delivery, body weight was associated with incontinence.
ABSTRACT
BackgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common female endocrine disorders affecting women of reproductive age, with a prevalence of about 5%–10% in the general population. PCOS is characterized by menstrual disturbances due to hirsutism, chronic anovulation or oligoovulation, and acne due to excessive androgen production (hyperandrogenemia). The pathogenesis of PCOS is still unexplained. Following the main criteria of diagnosis (Rotterdam Consensus 2003), Dewailly, Welt and Pehlivanov divided the patients with PCOS into 4 phenotype groups: Oligo + HA + PCO, Oligo + HA, HA + PCO, Oligo + PCO. ObjectiveThis aim of the study was to compare gonadotropin levels in serum of reproduction age for comparative healthy women and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).MethodsA cross-sectional study was performed comprising 425 comparative healthy women of reproductive age group 18-35 (<20 n=76, 21-25 n=131, 26-30 n=92, 31-35 n=126). To collect blood sample 4 times of healthy, normal menstrual cycle and body mass index (BMI) of women. To determine FSH, LH hormone in serum by ELISA (Eucardio lab kit used). To evaluate FSH, LH, LH/FSH normal menstrual phase (early follicular phase,late follicular phase, ovulation and mid-luteal phase). PCOS patients divided 2 type (oligo+ha, ha+pco).ResultsThe mean age was group A 26.33±5.28, group B 24.9±4.93, and group C 29.75±4.12, BMI a; 22.35±2.95, b; 28.88±3.85, c; 28.0±3.19. The mean level was FSH a; 4.64±1.65 mIU/ml, b; 12.07±3.85 mIU/ml, c; 5.35±7.20 mIU/ml, LH a; 6.42±3.3 mIU/ml, b; 39.43±15.89 mIU/ml, c; 10.89±2.53 mIU/ml of PCOS. To correlate FSH, LH, LH/FSH level was women was significantly (p<0.05).Conclusion: The increased level of LH, LH/FSH strongly correlates with the clinical degree of amenorrhea and hyperandrogenism.It seems that LH, LH/FSH could be a crucial diagnostic and predictive factor among women with menstrual disorders or presence of polycystic ovaries.
