A. K. Schramm, S. Waldmann-Rex Background: This prospective, non-interventional, observational study designed to reflect the daily medical practice which is very important for the product observation liability investigated the effects of 2.0 mg chlormadinone acetate/0.03 mg ethinylestradiol (CMA/EE) on dysmenorrhoea and related problems. Study design: A total of 4,842 patients were observed during a six-cycle period (26,945.5 treatment cycles) in 608 office-based gynaecological centres throughout Germany. Results: The administration of CMA/EE significantly reduced the number of patients who suffered from menstrual pain (–50.4 %). Analgesic use and absenteeism from school or work due to dysmenorrhoea was reduced by 74.6 % in OC starters and 91.9 % in OC switchers. CMA/EE was well tolerated and provided high contraceptive efficacy, with a non-adjusted Pearl index of 0.289 (95 % confidence interval 0.11–0.63). Significant reductions (p ≤ 0.001, baseline vs. final visit) were also seen in intermenstrual bleeding, bleeding intensity, premenstrual syndrome, mood swings, breast tenderness, headache, acne-prone skin and greasy hair. Conclusions: This evaluation supports previous findings that CMA/EE is an effective, well-tolerated contraceptive, reducing menstrual pain (dysmenorrhoea) significantly. In addition, CMA/EE offers substantial further non-contra- ceptive benefits. J Reproduktionsmed Endokrinol 2010; 7 (Special Issue 1): 112–18.

Effects of CMA/EE in Primary Dysmenorrhoea gynaecologists were asked to preferen- tially enroll women who complained of dysmenorrhoea. All participating inves- tigators observed and documented the intake of 2.0 mg CMA/0.03 mg EE dur- ing a 6-month period, which took place between August 2003 and November 2004. Two investigations were carried out and documented: one at baseline and the other at the end of the 6-month obser- vation period. Beyond the conventional cycle of CMA/EE-intake (21 days of pill intake, followed by a 7-day pill-free in- terval), an extended-cycle regimen was also documented (2–6 blister strips, fol- lowed by a 7-day pill-free interval).

It also has a significant, non-con- traceptive impact on women’s body. These drugs can be used in various endocrinological disorders, because of their ability to reduce the level of male hormones. The aim of our study is to establish a correlation between taking different types of anti-androgenic drugs and intensity of hirsutism, acne, menstrual pain intensity and sexuality . Material and methods: 570 women in childbearing age that had been using oral contraception for at least three months took part in our research. We examined women and asked them about quality of life, health, direct causes and effects of that treatment, intensity of acne and menstrual pain before and after. Our research group has been divided according to the type of gestagen contained in the contraceptive pill: dienogest, cyproterone, chlormadynone and drospirenone. Ad- ditionally, the control group consisted of women taking oral contraceptives without antiandrogenic component. Results: The mean age of the studied group was 23 years ± 3.23. 225 of 570 women complained of hirsutism.

  • Determination of 17 Hormone Residues in Milk by Ultra-High-Performance Liquid Chromatography and Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrom
    No. LCMSMS-065E Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry Determination of 17 Hormone Residues in Milk by Ultra-High-Performance Liquid Chromatography and Triple Quadrupole No. LCMSMS-65E Mass Spectrometry This application news presents a method for the determination of 17 hormone residues in milk using Shimadzu Ultra-High-Performance Liquid Chromatograph (UHPLC) LC-30A and Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer LCMS- 8040. After sample pretreatment, the compounds in the milk matrix were separated using UPLC LC-30A and analyzed via Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer LCMS-8040. All 17 hormones displayed good linearity within their respective concentration range, with correlation coefficient in the range of 0.9974 and 0.9999. The RSD% of retention time and peak area of 17 hormones at the low-, mid- and high- concentrations were in the range of 0.0102-0.161% and 0.563-6.55% respectively, indicating good instrument precision. Method validation was conducted and the matrix spike recovery of milk ranged between 61.00-110.9%. The limit of quantitation was 0.14-0.975 g/kg, and it meets the requirement for detection of hormones in milk.

No.: R6502) is a competitive enzyme immunoassay for the quantitative analysis of melengestrol acetate in bovine perirenal fat and muscle meat. All reagents required for the enzyme immunoassay - including standards - are contained in the test kit. The test kit is sufficient for 96 determinations (including standards). A microtiter plate spectrophotometer is required for quantification. Sample preparation: extraction over night centrifugation, evaporation, degreasing, centrifugation and chromatographic purification with RIDA ® C18 columns (Art. No.: R2002) Time requirement: sample preparation (for 10 samples) ..... approx. 18 h test implementation (incubation time) ...... 2 h 30 min Detection limit: bovine perirenal fat ........................................ 0.3 ppb (corresponding to the muscle meat .............................................. 0.075 ppb standard substance) Recovery rate: in spiked negative control (corresponding to the bovine perirenal fat ............................... approx. 65 % standard substance) muscle meat ......................................... approx. 74 % Specificity: The specificity of the RIDASCREEN ® Melengestrol- acetate test was determined by analyzing the cross- reactivities to corresponding substances in buffer system. In samples, the specificity may deviate from those determined in the buffer system due to matrix effects. Prior to the analysis of cross-reactive substances, the user has to determine the Limit of Detection and the Recovery for the substance in the respective sample matrix. The test cannot discriminate between analytes and cross-reactive substances.
