Therapeutic tactics with violations of the menstrual cycle caused by ovulative dysfunction

Purpose : presentation of modern data on the pathogenesis of menstrual cycle disorders (NMCs) associated with ovulatory dysfunction, and the effectiveness of their treatment with medication. Basic provisions . It is shown that NMC is the result of violations of the cyclic production of gonadotropic and sex hormones. Among the hormonal drugs for the treatment of NMCs, combined estrogen-progestational oral contraceptives (COCs), especially those with drospirenone (DRSP), are advantageous. The introduction of calcium levomefolate - biologically active form of folatein the composition of COCs containing 30 μg of ethinylestradiol and DRSP has a potentiating effect associated with their noncontraceptive effects due to antiandrogenic and antimineralocorticoid activity. It was shown that calcium levomefolate, which participates in human body metabolism, as a component of COC, has a protective effect on the cardiovascular system (due to a decrease in the level of homocysteinemia) in the syndrome of polycystic ovaries, contributes to reducing obesity. Conclusion . The combination of 30EE/DRSP promotes the normalization of the menstrual cycle and has non-contraceptive effects associated with antiandrogenic and antimineralcorticoid action, and fortification with calcium levomefolate also has a positive effect on the hormonal profile and lipid metabolism, has a protective effect on cardiovascular diseases in women with the metabolic syndrome in polycystic ovaries, contributes to the normalization of weight.
