ABSTRACT Background The perimenopausal and postmenopausal periods are associated with many symptoms, including sexual complaints. Objectives To assess the effect of hormone therapy (HT) on sexual function in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. Search methods We searched for articles in the Cochrane Menstrual Disorders and Subfertility Group (MDSG) Specialised Register, CENTRAL, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, LILACS, ClinicalTrials.gov, Current Controlled Trials, WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform, ISI Web of Knowledge and OpenGrey. The last search was performed in December 2012. Selection criteria We included randomised controlled trials comparing HT to either placebo or no intervention (control). We considered as HT estrogens alone; estrogens in combination with progestogens; synthetic steroids (for example tibolone); or selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) (for example raloxifene, bazedoxifene). Studies of other drugs possibly used in the relief of menopausal symptoms were excluded. We included studies that evaluated sexual function using any validated assessment tool. The primary outcome was a composite score for sexual function and the scores for individual domains (arousal and sexual interest, orgasm, and pain) were secondary outcomes. Studies were selected by two authors independently. Data collection and analysis Data were independently extracted by two authors and checked by a third. Risk of bias assessment was performed independently by two authors. We contacted study investigators as required. Data were analysed using standardized mean difference (SMD) and relative risk (RR). We stratified the analysis by participant characteristics with regard to menopausal symptoms. The overall quality of the evidence for the primary outcome was evaluated using the GRADE criteria. Hormone therapy for sexual function in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women (Review) 1 Copyright © 2013 The Cochrane Collaboration. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Main results The search retrieved 2351 records from which 27 studies (16,393 women) were included. The ’symptomatic or early post-menopausal’ subgroup included nine studies: perimenopausal women (one study), up to 36 months postmenopause (one study), up to five years postmenopause (one study), experiencing vasomotor or other menopausal symptoms (five studies), or experiencing hot flushes and sexual dysfunction (one study). The ’unselected postmenopausal women’ subgroup included 18 studies, which included women regardless of menopausal symptoms and permitted the inclusion of women with more than five years since the final menstrual period. No studies were restricted to women with sexual dysfunction. Only five studies evaluated sexual function as a primary outcome. Eighteen studies were deemed at high risk of bias, and the other nine studies were at unclear risk of bias. Twenty studies received commercial funding. Findings for sexual function (measured by composite score): For estrogens

    PRODUCT INFORMATION Quinestrol Item No. 10006320 CAS Registry No.: 152-43-2 Formal Name: 3-(cyclopentyloxy)-19-norpregna- 1,3,5(10)-trien-20-yn-17α-ol Synonyms: Ethylnyl Estradiol-3-cyclopentyl ether, W 3566 MF: C25H32O2 FW: 3645 Purity: ≥98% UV/Vis.: λmax: 202, 281 nm Supplied as: A crystalline solid Storage: -20°C Stability: ≥2 years Information represents the product specifications. Batch specific analytical results are provided on each certificate of analysis. Laboratory Procedures Quinestrol is supplied as a crystalline solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the quinestrol in an organic solvent purged with an inert gas. Quinestrol is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, DMSO, and dimethyl formamide (DMF). The solubility of quinestrol in ethanol is approximately 20 mg/ml and approximately 30 mg/ml in DMSO and DMF. Quinestrol is sparingly soluble in aqueous buffers. For maximum solubility in aqueous buffers, should first be dissolved in DMSO and then diluted with the aqueous buffer of choice. Quinestrol has a solubility of approximately 0.5 mg/ml in a 1:1 solution of DMSO:PBS (pH 7.2) using this method. We do not recommend storing the aqueous solution for more than one day. Description Quinestrol is a synthetic estrogen that is effective in hormone replacement therapy.1,2 It is a 3-cyclopentyl ether of ethynyl estradiol. After gastrointestinal absorption, it is stored in adipose tissue, where it is slowly released and metabolized in the liver to its active form, ethynyl estradiol. Quinestrol has found limited use in suppressing lactation in postpartum women and, in combination with synthetic progestogens, as contraceptive therapy, although additional studies are needed for both applications.

  • Clomid (Clomiphene Citrate USP)
    PRODUCT MONOGRAPH PrCLOMID® (clomiphene citrate USP) 50 mg Tablets Ovulatory Agent sanofi-aventis Canada Inc. Date of Revision: 2905 Place Louis-R.-Renaud August 9, 2013 Laval, Quebec H7V 0A3 Submission Control No.: 165671 s-a Version 5.0 dated August 9, 2013 Page 1 of 23 PRODUCT MONOGRAPH PrCLOMID® (clomiphene citrate USP) 50 mg Tablets Ovulatory agent. ACTION AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY CLOMID (clomiphene citrate) is an orally-administered, non-steroidal agent which may induce ovulation in anovulatory women in appropriately selected cases.1-16 The ovulatory response to cyclic CLOMID therapy appears to be mediated through increased output of pituitary gonadotropins, which in turn stimulate the maturation and endocrine activity of the ovarian follicle and the subsequent development and function of the corpus luteum. The role of the pituitary is indicated by increased plasma levels of gonadotropins and by the response of the ovary, as manifested by increased plasma level of estradiol. Antagonism of competitive inhibition of endogenous estrogen may play a role in the action of CLOMID on the hypothalamus. CLOMID is a drug of considerable pharmacologic potency. Its administration should be preceded by careful evaluation and selection of the patient, and must be accompanied by close attention to the timing of the dose. With conservative selection and management of the patient, CLOMID has been demonstrated to be a useful therapy for the anovulatory patient. Based on studies with 14C-labeled clomiphene, the drug is readily absorbed orally in humans, and is excreted principally in the feces. Cumulative excretion of the 14C-label averaged 51% of the oral dose after 5 days in 6 subjects, with mean urinary excretion of 8% and mean fecal excretion of 42%; less than 1% per day was excreted in fecal and urine samples collected from 31 to 53 days after 14C-labelled clomiphene administration.

  • Management of Women with Clomifene Citrate Resistant Polycystic Ovary Syndrome – an Evidence Based Approach
    1 Management of Women with Clomifene Citrate Resistant Polycystic Ovary Syndrome – An Evidence Based Approach Hatem Abu Hashim Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, Faculty of Medicine, Mansoura University, Mansoura, Egypt 1. Introduction World Health Organisation (WHO) type II anovulation is defined as normogonadotrophic normoestrogenic anovulation and occurs in approximately 85% of anovulatory patients. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common form of WHO type II anovulatory infertility and is associated with hyperandrogenemia (1,2). Moreover, PCOS is the most common endocrine abnormality in reproductive age women. The prevalence of PCOS is traditionally estimated at 4% to 8% from studies performed in Greece, Spain and the USA (3-6). The prevalence of PCOS has increased with the use of different diagnostic criteria and has recently been shown to be 11.9 ± 2.4% -17.8 ± 2.8 in the first community-based prevalence study based on the current Rotterdam diagnostic criteria compared with 10.2 ± 2.2% -12.0 ± 2.4% and 8.7 ± 2.0% using National Institutes of Health criteria and Androgen Excess Society recommendations respectively (7). Importantly, 70% of women in this recent study were undiagnosed (7). Clomiphene citrate (CC) is still holding its place as the first-line therapy for ovulation induction in these patients (2,8,9). CC contains an unequal mixture of two isomers as their citrate salts, enclomiphene and zuclomiphene. Zuclomiphene is much the more potent of the two for induction of ovulation, accounts for 38% of the total drug content of one tablet and has a much longer half-life than enclomiphene, being detectable in plasma 1 month following its administration (10).

F, D and E , stimulated DNA synthesis at low concentrations, and 1OHase 2 inhibited it at high concentrations. All estrogen-related compounds increased CK dose- dependently. Daily treatment with JKF (1 nM for 3 days) resulted in decreased DNA synthesis, increased CK and up- regulation of the stimulation of DNA synthesis by low estrogen-related hormones whereas D- and E2- mediated inhibition of cell proliferation was abolished by JKF. In contrast, inhibition of cell proliferation by F could not be blocked by JKF. JKF also up-regulated the stimulatory effects on CK by F, E2 and D.

ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Received: 11 Nov 2017 The electrochemical behaviour of clomifene was studied and determined in pharmaceutical Accepted: 18 Dec 2017 formulations. The drug of clomifene was electrochemically examined by cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry using a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The obtained results showed that, the Britton Robinson buffer with pH 4.0 was the best medium for reduction of clomifene on the glassy carbon electrode at the peak potential -1.01 V. The range of linearity was found to be from 0.20 μg mL-1 to 60.0 μg mL-1 (R2 = 0.994) with limit of detection (LOD) 0.168 μg mL-1 and limit of quantification (LOQ) was 0.511 μg mL-1. Differential pulse voltammetric method was successfully applied for the electrochemical determination of clomifene in pharmaceutical formulations ______ Keywords: Clomifene, drug, voltammetry, pharmaceutical formulations. 1. INTRODUCTION An alkenyl group containing molecules play a vital role in drug chemistry.1 There are innumerable chemical reactions that involve or produce a carbon-carbon double bond group as an intermediate or as an end produce.1 Consequently the discovery of the first non-steroidal antiestrogen, several studies have been conducted to determine the mechanism of Corresponding author * action of this classes of compounds.
