Several programs exist to control their numbers through lethal removal, using tools such as baiting with toxins. Adult male cats are especially difficult to control. We hypothesized that one way to capture these male cats is to lure them using female cats. As female cats are seasonal breeders, a method is needed to artificially induce reproductive (estrous) behavior so that they could be used for this purpose year-round (i.e., regardless of season).

  • 17Β Estradiol / Norethisterone Acetate and Estradiol Valerate / Norgestrel
    Eastern Journal of Medicine 20 (2015) 199-203 Original Article 17β estradiol / norethisterone acetate and estradiol valerate / norgestrel therapies in patients with dysfunctional uterine bleeding: The effects on estrogen and progesterone receptor levels and clinical response Mevlüde Ayika, Metin Ingecb, Necla Konar Ustyolc,*, Cemal Gundogdud aDepartment of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Kahramanmaraş State Hospital, Kahramanmaraş, Turkey bDepartment of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Atatürk Universitiy Facullty of Medicine, Erzurum, Turkey cDepartment of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Women and Children’s Hospital, Van, Turkey dDepartment of Pathology, Atatürk Universitiy Facullty of Medicine, Erzurum, Turkey Abstract. To compare estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) levels before and after estradiol valerate/norgestrel or 17β estradiol/norethisterone acetate therapy in dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) and to examine the clinical response to these therapies. The study was performed with 60 patients diagnosed with DUB. Patients were divided into two groups. One was given 17β estradiol / norethisterone acetate (group A) and the other estradiol valerate / norgestrel (group B). Pre- and post-treatment clinical parameters and ER and PR levels were measured. Changes in ER levels following treatment were significant in both groups, while the change in PR levels was significant in the group B (p<0.05). Compared to the pre-treatment levels, an increase in hemoglobin-hematocrit values, decreased endometrial thickness and prolongation of menstrual cycle were observed in both groups (p<0.05). Furthermore, pre- and post-treatment bleeding was significantly shorter in group A (p<0.05). Clinical responses obtained with hormonal preparates in the treatment of DUB are associated with decreases in ER and PR levels.

  • Effects of Different Add-Back Regimens on Hypoestrogenic Problems by Postoperative Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist Treatm
    Original Article Obstet Gynecol Sci 2016;59(1):32-38 http://dx.doi.org/10.5468/ogs.2016.59.1.32 pISSN 2287-8572 · eISSN 2287-8580 Effects of different add-back regimens on hypoestrogenic problems by postoperative gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist treatment in endometriosis Dong-Yun Lee, Hyang Gi Park, Byung-Koo Yoon, DooSeok Choi Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seoul, Korea Objective To compare the efficacy of different add-back regimens on hypoestrogenic symptoms during postoperative gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist treatment in endometriosis patients. Methods This prospective cohort study included reproductive-aged women who underwent conservative laparoscopic surgery for ovarian endometriosis and received add-back therapy during a 6-month course of GnRH agonist therapy after surgery. Participants received one of four different add-back regimens: 1 mg of estradiol valerate, 2.5 mg of tibolone, or a combination of 1 mg of estradiol and 2 mg of drospirenone or 0.5 mg of norethisterone acetate. Changes in quality of life, hypoestrogenic symptoms, and bone mineral density were compared according to add-back regimens. Results A total of 57 participants completed a 6-month course of GnRH agonist and add-back therapy. All components of quality of life did not differ across groups. However, within the same treatment group, social relationship factors decreased significantly with estradiol valerate and tibolone alone, and environmental factors decreased significantly with estradiol valerate alone. Menopausal Rating Scale score did not change significantly, but the incidence of hot flushes significantly decreased with a combination of estradiol and norethisterone acetate.
