The aim of the present study was to evaluate the biochemical and clinical effects of the combined pill consisting of ethinyl estradiol (EE) and drospirenone (DRSP) in hirsute patients. Fifty-two adolescents or young women from Greece were treated with 30 mug EE and 3 mg DRSP for 1 year. Hirsutism was evaluated by the Ferriman-Gallway (FG) score in the initial visit and at 3, 6 and 12 months. Follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, etradiol, free and total testosterone (T), sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), androstenedione and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate were determined at the same intervals. Hirsutism improved and FG scores reduced to 77.4%, 67.2% and 51.8% at 3, 6 and 12 months, respectively. Plasma SHBG levels rose, while free and total T levels reduced from the third month onwards. In conclusion, the EE/DRSP pill improves hirsutism in women via antiandrogenic and antimineralocorticoid action. The biochemical manifestations of hyperandrogenism are also improved.
本研究的目的是评估由炔雌醇(EE)和屈螺酮(DRSP)组成的复方口服避孕药对多毛症患者的生化及临床影响。52名来自希腊的青少年或年轻女性接受了30μg EE和3mg DRSP治疗,为期1年。在初次就诊时以及治疗3、6和12个月时,通过费里曼-高尔韦(FG)评分评估多毛症情况。在相同时间间隔测定促卵泡生成素、促黄体生成素、雌二醇、游离睾酮和总睾酮(T)、性激素结合球蛋白(SHBG)、雄烯二酮和硫酸脱氢表雄酮。多毛症得到改善,FG评分在3、6和12个月时分别降至77.4%、67.2%和51.8%。血浆SHBG水平升高,而游离T和总T水平从第三个月起降低。总之,EE/DRSP复方口服避孕药通过抗雄激素和抗盐皮质激素作用改善女性多毛症。高雄激素血症的生化表现也得到改善。
