Medicina natural y tradicional en el tratamiento de 3 mujeres con síndrome de Asherman / Natural and traditional medicine in the treatment of 3 women with Asherman syndrome

Se presentan 3 casos clínicos de féminas con síndrome de Asherman, procedentes del Policlínico Docente "Ramón López Peña", tratadas con medicina natural y tradicional. Se aplicaron técnicas bioenergéticas (acupuntura y microsistema de oreja, hidroterapia, dietas hipotóxicas, reflexoterapia podal) y de respiración. Todas las pacientes mejoraron su cuadro clínico, pues se le restableció el flujo menstrual y la gestación, lo cual demostró la eficacia del tratamiento empleado.

Three case reports of females with Asherman syndrome, belonging to "Ramón López Peña" Teaching Polyclinic, treated with natural and traditional medicine are presented. Bioenergetic techniques (acupuncture and ear microsystem, hydrotherapy, hipotoxic diets, foot reflex therapy) and breathing techniques were applied. All the patients improved their clinical pattern, because the menstrual flow and pregnancy were reestablished, which demonstrated the effectiveness of the treatment.

Expression pattern of progesterone receptor, integrinbeta(3), cyclooxygenase-2 ( COX-2 ) in human endometrium of patient with the disease related implantation / 대한산부인과학회잡지

OBJECTIVE: We compared the expression pattern of progesterone receptor, integrin 3, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in in-phased endomerium of patient with the disease related implantation and control group, and tried to confirm the clinical efficacy of the immunohistochemical markers for discrimination of occult uterine receptivity defect in in-phase endometrium. STUDY DESIGN: Endometrial tissues were obtained from 60 women with normal (group 1; n = 20), uterine synechiae (group 2; n = 15), and endometriosis (group 3; n = 25). On 7 ~ 8 days after ovulation (POD 7 ~ 8), sex hormone levels were measured and immunohistochemical staining of PR, integrin 3, and COX-2 expression were performed. RESULTS: PR was decreased in the group 2 and increased in the group 3 comparing with the group 1. integrin 3 expression was significantly decreased in the group 2 and 3. COX-2 expression was significantly decreased in the group 2. But, in the group 3, COX-2 expression was slightly increased in glandular epithelial cells, and significantly increased in stromal cells. CONCLUSIONS: In-phase biopsies from patients with endometriosis and uterine synechiae showed different expression pattern of integrin 3, COX-2, and PR compared to the control. The aberrant expression of immunohistochemical markers be associated with occult uterine receptivity defect and produce the useful diagnostic method.
