Although it has been demonstrated that primary dysmenorrhea is associated with elevated levels of PGF2 alpha in the menstrual fluid, little is actually known of the menstrual-PG profiles of either dysmenorrheic or normal women. In this study, menstrual fluid from normal and dysmenorrheic women was collected from tampons and extracted for PG-like substances. The PGF2 alpha, PGE2 and TXA2 content was analyzed by RIA. This study demonstrates that dysmenorrheics have significantly higher levels/concentrations of menstrual-PGF2 alpha and PGE2 than do normal women, and that there is no difference in the menstrual-PGF2 alpha : PGE2 ratio between the two groups. Also, there is no significant difference in the amount/concentration of menstrual-thromboxane between dysmenorrheic and normal women. Of the parameters considered, the levels/-concentrations of menstrual-PGF2 alpha, PGE2 and TXA2, dysmenorrheic pain correlates best with the rate of menstrual-PGF2 alpha release.
虽然已有研究表明原发性痛经与月经液中前列腺素F2α(PGF2α)水平升高有关,但对于痛经女性或正常女性的月经前列腺素(PG)谱实际上所知甚少。在本研究中,从卫生棉条收集正常女性和痛经女性的月经液,并提取其中的类PG物质。采用放射免疫分析法(RIA)分析PGF2α、前列腺素E2(PGE2)和血栓素A2(TXA2)的含量。本研究表明,痛经女性月经液中PGF2α和PGE2的水平/浓度显著高于正常女性,且两组之间月经液中PGF2α与PGE2的比值无差异。此外,痛经女性和正常女性月经液中血栓素的量/浓度无显著差异。在所考虑的参数中,痛经疼痛与月经液中PGF2α的释放速率相关性最好,涉及月经液中PGF2α、PGE2和TXA2的水平/浓度。
