Abstract
Objectives – efficiency assessment of the dienogest (Visannе) in treatment of perimeopausal patients with adenomyosis and postmenopausal women, in whom the adenomyosis was newly diagnosed.
Material and methods. Included in the study, there were 64 patients (aged 45–52 years) who had undergone the surgical treatment of adenomyosis followed by the dienogest treatment at a dose of 2 mg, and 47 women in the age of 54–57 years with newly diagnosed adenomyosis in the course of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT). All patients received 2 mg of dienogest (Visannе, Bayer) during the period of 3–6 months. Medical checkup was performed in 3 and 6 months after initiation of treatment.
Results and Discussion. The remarkable reduction in clinical manifestations and improvement of uterine walls structure was registered in both groups of patients in 3 months of treatment. However, in 25% of patients the echographic changes remained significant. In 6 months all the patients had a sustained remission and amenorrhea.
Conclusion. In the course of investigation the dienogest (Visannе) at a dose of 2 mg revealed high efficacy in treatment of endometriosis in late perimeopausal and postmeopausal patients with a diagnosed abnormal uterine bleeding associated with adenomyosis.
