Abstract

Objective: The serum levels of sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), free testosteron (fT) and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEASO4) which differ following menopause, are effected by estrogens. Therefore oral conjugated equine estrogen (CEE) were administered by two different regimens and the consequent hormone levels measured. Materials and Methods: Twenty five postmenopausal women were divided into two groups. Thirteen women received 0.625mg/day CEE (premarin, Wyeth) continously and 5 mg/day medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) (Farlutal, Deva) between 14-25 days (group I). Twelve patients received 0.625 mg/day CEE between 1- 21 days and 5 mg/day MPA between 14-25 days (groupll). Both regimens were given to the patients for 6 months. Results: While levels of SHBG significantly raised, the fT and DHEASO4 levels significantly decreased within the two groups. However these hormone levels did not differ between the groups. Conclusion: Both regimens affected SHBG, fT and DHEASO4 levels. But the difference did not show significance between the groups. We conclude that studies in larger groups with a longer treatment period would be more enlightening to determine the difference between the groups.

Özet

Amaç: Menopozdan sonra düzeyi değişen sex hormon binding globulin (SHBG), serbest testosteron (s-T) ve dehidroepiandrostenedion sülfat (DHEASO4) östrojen tedavisinden etkilenir. Bu nedenle iki farklı şekilde verilen oral konjuge equine estrogen (KEE) tedavisi ile söz konusu hormonların düzeyini araştırmayı amaçladık. Gereç ve Yöntem: Yirmi beş postmenopozal kadın iki gruba ayrıldı. On üç kadın 0.625 mg/gün KEE (Premarin, Wyeth) sürekli ve 5 mgr/gün medroksiprogesteron asetat (MPA) (Farlutal, Deva) 14-25. günler arası alırken (grup I), 12 kadın 0.625 mg/gün KEE 1-21. günler arası ve 5 mgr/gün MPA 14-25. günler arası (grup II) aldı. Her iki tedavi de 6 ay süreyle verildi. Bulgular: Altı ay sonunda grup içi değerlendirmede SHBG düzeyleri artarken, s-T ve DHEASO4 düzeyleri azaldı. Gruplar arası karşılaştırmada fark y oktu. Sonuç: İki farklı tedavi rejimi de SHBG, s-T ve DHEASO4 düzeylerini etkilemektedir. Etki açısından gruplar arası fark yoktu. Altı aydan uzun süreli ve daha geniş hasta grubunda yapılacak benzer çalışmaların gruplar arası farkların saptanmasında daha belirleyici olacağını düşünüyoruz
