uterine prolapse/progesterone

A 4-year-old bitch was referred with chronic vaginal prolapse. It was first noticed during estrus, about 58 days prior to referral. Artificial insemination (AI) was performed twice after reducing the prolapse manually. Abdominal radiography (53 to 55 days after AI) was performed by the attending

Frequently, vaginal fold prolapse is the protrusion of edematous vaginal tissue into and through the opening of the vulva occurring during proestrus and estrus stages of the sexual cycle. True vaginal prolapse may occur near parturition, as the concentration of serum progesterone declines and the

OBJECTIVE To enlighten the early response of endometrium to tamoxifen by assessing the expression of estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors, Ki-67, and the histological response in endometria from normal postmenopausal women treated for 21 days with tamoxifen. METHODS A total of 40 women,

Vaginal prolapse is the protrusion of edematous vaginal tissue into and through the opening of the vulva occurring during the pro-oestrus and oestrus stages of the sexual cycle. True vaginal prolapse may occur near parturition, as the concentration of serum progesterone declines and the

OBJECTIVE Receptors for estrogen and progesterone are present in the pelvic floor, and therefore, postmenopausal hormone therapy may affect its function. We compared the former use of estradiol-progestogen postmenopausal hormone therapy in nonhysterectomized women with a uterine prolapse surgery (N

OBJECTIVE Estriol is an estrogen with considerably weaker stimulatory effects on endometrial proliferation than estradiol. A study was conducted to determine the level of estrogen receptors (ERs) and progesterone receptors (PRs) in women who received 14-day vaginal estriol therapy, compared with

BACKGROUND The late onset of pelvic visceral prolapse and incontinence after childbirth injury could be explained by menopause-associated connective tissue weakening. Uterosacral ligament resilience (UsR) was assessed to determine whether it influenced uterine or pelvic floor mobility, or varied

BACKGROUND Because of donor oocyte programs, women who previously were considered too old to successfully achieve conception and delivery can now bear children. To our knowledge, there have been no previous reports of pregnancy outcome in women over age 50 who conceived using donor oocytes. This

The objectives of the present study were to evaluate the hormonal profiles, histology of the vagina and biomolecular analysis of connective tissue of ewes with and without vaginal prolapse. Blood samples from the jugular vein and biopsies of the vaginal tissue were taken from five late term

The study aimed to determine the effects of red clover (Trifolium pratense) silage with high phyto-oestrogen content on ewe performance during their first breeding season. Red clover silage containing formononetin, biochanin A, genistein, and daidzein was fed to 10 nulliparous ewes of the prolific

The most common causes of vaginal/vestibular masses in the bitch are vaginal prolapse, vaginal neoplasia, and urethral neoplasia protruding into the vaginal vault. Other possible causes are clitoral enlargement, vaginal polyps, uterine prolapse, and vaginal abscessation or hematoma. Vaginal prolapse

A 20-month-old sexually intact female mixed breed sheep was examined for lameness, unexpected udder development, lactation and anorexia. Tachycardia, tachypnoea, severe abdominal distension and vaginal prolapse were evident upon physical examination. A right hindlimb lameness was present at the

BACKGROUND The precise mechanism of uterine prolapse is poorly understood. This immunohistochemical study was performed on paraffin-embedded sections of the cardinal ligaments in an attempt to evaluate the differential expression of gonadal steroid receptors in human cardinal ligaments of prolapsed

In approximately 25% of uterine cervices there are bundles of smooth muscle in the immediate submucosa of the endocervix usually in the region of the transformation zone. They are morphologically and immunohistochemically different from the inherent muscle deeper in the cervix in that they have more
