RESUMO: A Endometriose constitui doença enigmática de etiologia incerta e caracteriza-se pelo implante ectópico INTRODUÇÃOA Endometriose constitui uma doença enigmá-tica de etiologia incerta e caracteriza-se pelo implante ectópico, extra-uterino, de tecido endometrial funcionante. Estima-se que a patologia esteja presente em 10% a 15% das mulheres em idade reprodutiva (5) . Apresenta prevalência de 4,5 a 33,3% em mulheres submetidas a tratamento de esterilidade; 4,5 a 21,2% entre as pacientes atendidas com dor pélvica e 0 a 7,1% nas portadoras de tumoração pélvica ( 3,7) . Os implantes endometriais extra-uterinos usualmente estão confinados à pelve, na região dos ovári-os, dos ligamentos útero-sacros e fundo de saco peritonial; porém, podem aparecer no trato gastrointestinal, trato urinário, sistema pulmonar, SNC, pele e musculatura estriada. A prevalência exata da endometriose extra-uterina não é bem conhecida. A faixa etária mais comum para início dos sintomas é de 34 a 40 anos (4) . A endometriose intestinal é um acontecimento não raro cujos sítios de maior acometimento são o retosigmóide (73%) e o septo reto-vaginal (13%) (3,6,9,10,11) . As lesões mais freqüentes acometem as camadas serosa e muscular própria, e raramente podem ser mais profundas, comprometendo a mucosa intestinal. Os principais sintomas são dores pélvicas, constipação e/ ou diarréia recorrente, flatulência, distensão abdominal, puxo, tenesmo. Nos casos em que há acometimento da mucosa ou submucosa intestinal ocorre
The hormonal changes that occur in a short time span promote modifications all over the woman's body, with physical and emotional manifestations which are frequently observed. Aim: to evaluate the activity of the external ciliated cells in women during their menstrual cycle, observing the effect of hormonal changes caused by the cycle in their 3 phases. Methods: this is a longitudinal prospective study where 21 women between 20 and 35 years old who did not take any contraceptive medicine were assessed. Transient otoacoustic emissions were evaluated by distortion product during the 3 phases of the menstrual cycle (luteal, follicular and ovulatory phases). The SPSS 13.0 software was used to analyze the data. Results: the phases of menstrual cycle do not alter the amplitude and reproducibility values of the transient otoacoustic emissions. We noticed a difference between the ears in the frequency of 1.5 KHz in the amplitude of emissions by distortion product, and the right ear showed the highest values. Conclusion: There are no significant differences in transient otoacoustic emissions and distortion products in the phases of the menstrual cycle.
There are no significant differences in transient otoacoustic emissions and distortion products in the phases of the menstrual cycle.
