Gonadotropin-releasing hormone

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders that is known to affect women during reproductive years. This disorder is characterized by hyperandrogenism, chronic anovulation, and typical morphologic changes of the ovaries (Pan, Chen, Tsao, & Chen, 2015). PCOS is estimated to have a prevalence of 5%-10% of reproductive aged women (Grossman & Porth). The symptoms that accompany this disorder include menstrual irregularity, obesity, infertility, and androgen…

images can identify only one type of endometrial growth, the chocolate cyst (Yates, 2015). When a combination of signs, symptoms, and ultrasound findings fail to diagnose the cause of pelvic pain, diagnosis can be made through the use of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists.

This induced state suppresses the growth of endometrial tissue…

chemotherapy is beyond the scope of this article. Endocrine therapy can be an effective systemic treatment in hormone-receptor positive breast cancer. Premenopausal women are often treated with ovarian suppression, selective estrogen receptor modulators, and aromatase inhibitors. • Ovarian suppression may be performed via ablation (eg, oophorectomy, ovarian irradiation) or with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists such as…

Considering multiple etiological triggers, the age associated changes start up with Initiator trigger mechanisms subsequently followed by damaging the protective reactionary shielding mechanism, both the initiator and the reactionary set of molecular mechanisms regulate multiple pathways, leading to the terminal molecular mechanisms - the two most significant molecular pathways involved are – the final gateways which when lethally affected send the cell to the grave yard. The terminal End point…

A speculum is inserted into the vagina to clear an opening so that the cervical ostium can be localized and cleansed. A sterile saline flushed catheter is advanced through the cervical ostium into the cervical canal, where its balloon tip is inflated to hold the catheter in place. The vaginal probe can now be inserted while a sterile saline filled syringe is attached to the catheter. The saline is pushed through the syringe and through the catheter while the transducer moves from left to right…
