Objective: Our objective was to test the efficacy and tolerability of three doses flutamide (125, 250, 375 mg) combined with a triphasic oral contraceptive (ethynylestradiol/levonorgestrel) during 12 months treat moderate severe hirsutism in patients polycystic ovary syndrome or idiopathic hirsutism.
The transmission of DNA through extracellular vesicles (EVs) represents a novel genetic material transfer mechanism that may impact genome evolution and tumorigenesis. We aimed to investigate the potential for vertical within maternal endometrial EVs pre-implantation embryo describe any effect on bioenergetics. discovered human endometrium secretes all three general subtypes EV - apoptotic bodies (ABs), microvesicles (MVs), exosomes (EXOs) into fluid (EF) uterine cavity. become uniformly...
Abstract: The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety random-start controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) for emergency fertility preservation, regardless phase menstrual cycle. A self-controlled pilot clinical trial (NCT01385332) was performed in an acute-care teaching hospital two private reproductive centers Barcelona, Spain. Eleven egg donors participated study. Two gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist protocols were assessed which ganirelix initiated...

AbstractObjective The aim of this study was to evaluate the demographic characteristics population attending our hospital requesting postcoital contraception and determine effectiveness method its side-effects.Methods A total 503 women asking for were included in a prospective open trial. After filling questionnaire dealing with contraceptive data, we prescribed an ethinylestradiol-levonorgestrel combination (100 μg/ 500 mg two doses 12 h apart).Results Only 487 available analysis data....
Abstract Purpose To describe the clinical characteristics, management and pregnancy outcome of women with prepregnancy hypopituitarism (HYPO) that received care at our center. Methods Retrospective study describing 12 pregnancies in HYPO (two or more pituitary hormonal deficiencies under replacement treatment) during Hospital Santa Creu i Sant Pau. Clinical were systematically collected. Results Average patients’ age was 35 years duration beginning 19 years. The most frequent cause surgical...
To test the hypothesis that macroprolactinemia is an extra-pituitary phenomenon by showing pituitary production of prolactin in patients with hyperprolactinemia due to macroprolactin comparable normoprolactinemic women and different from monomeric hyperprolactinemia.Twenty-five were studied: eight hyperprolactinemia, nine controls. Prolactin levels measured before after precipitation polyethylene glycol at baseline 5, 10,15, 30, 60 min metoclopramide administration (10 mg i.v.) three...
Emergency contraception (EC) accessibility has evolved differently in Catalunya as compared with other autonomous communities Spain. Free-of-charge access within the Public Health System was authorised 2004, and over-the-counter (OTC) implemented 2009. The aim of study is to assess impact these measures on demand users' profiles at our institution.A retrospective study, Department, conducted evaluate EC requests relationship modifications. age women which days week they attended were...
Abstract Study question Are anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels predictive of cumulative pregnancy rate in non-infertile women undergoing intrauterine insemination with donor sperm (ds-IUI)? Summary answer AMH has limited value for clinical after 4 cycles ds-IUI women. Decreased concentration does not necessarily reduce rates. What is known already Physiologically, rates decline due to oocyte quality deterioration upon advancing maternal age. a widely-used marker ovarian reserve and...
Abstract Study question Does OXO-001 increase implantation and pregnancy rates in women undergoing egg donation IVF/ICSI embryo transfer (ET) compared to placebo? Summary answer This proof-of-concept (PoC) prospective randomized controlled study shows that treatment increases infertile with studied doses. What is known already a drug being developed as an innovative enhance through direct effect on the endometrium. Preclinical results show viability. Moreover, they safe for mother, fetuses,...
