“…In the first group, combination therapy induced no significant regrowth in the mean uterine volume, but the second group had regrowth of uterine volume to 92% of pretreatment size in 52 weeks of therapy. Also, HDL cholesterol decreased significantly in the progestin add-back group, an effect that was not seen in the combination group [27]. [5,21].…”

“…The loss of trabecular bone density appears to be nearly or totally reversible if treatment is limited to a 6-month course (97,100,101). Moreover, use of add-back norethindrone (10 mg/day), norethindrone (2.5 mg/day) plus cyclical sodium etidronate, norethisterone (1.2 mg/ day), or postmenopausal doses of estrogen plus medroxyprogesterone may reduce or arrest bone loss, although hormonal add-back regimens may reduce the effectiveness of GnRH agonist therapy (96,98,99,102,103). Progestin therapy, however, is associated with a decrease in high density lipoprotein levels and an increase in low density lipoprotein levels (96,103).…”

Progestin therapy, however, is associated with a decrease in high density lipoprotein levels and an increase in low density lipoprotein levels (96,103). Finkelstein et al showed that intermittent PTH administration, an experimental therapy, increases bone density in the spine 2.1 Ϯ 1.1% (Ϯsem) and prevents bone loss in the hip when used for 1 yr (104).…”

“…В настоящее время это единственная группа лекарственных средств, одобренная FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration -Управление по контролю за качеством пищевых продуктов и лекарствен-ных препаратов), для лечения миомы матки. При лечении аГнРГ размер миомы матки за 3 месяца удается уменьшить на 30-50% [11][12][13]. Как известно, возобновление роста миоматозных узлов обычно происходит в течение 12 недель после окончания лечения.…”

“…Однако безопасное использование аГнРГ возможно толь-ко короткими курсами (не более 6 месяцев) ввиду воз-никновения гипоэстрогении и ассоциированных с ней побочных эффектов, ведущим из которых является сниже-ние минеральной плотности костной ткани [11,12]. Длительное лечение аГнРГ возможно лишь в сочетании с препаратами для менопаузальной гормонотерапии (addback-терапия или возвратная терапия) [13]. Однако такой подход нельзя рассматривать как рациональный в виду отсутствия доказанных его преимуществ.…”
