Intravaginal oestrogen and progestin administration: advantages and disadvantages
Best Practice & Research Clinical Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2008The vagina provides a local and a systemic route for delivering hormones for systemic effects and uterine targeting. Due to the 'uterine first-pass effect', hormones concentrate in the uterus and nearby tissues with low systemic exposure. Vaginal oestrogens, progesterone/progestins and danazol are currently used to obtain local (vagina and urethra ...

Mid-trimester abortion induced by intravaginal administration of prostaglandin E2 suppositories
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1975Mid-trimester abortion was successfully induced in 70 of 71 patients by administration of vaginal PGE2 suppositories. The one patient who failed to abort with this method was pregnant in the blind horn of a duplex uterus. The mean abortion time for the successful inductions was 11.88 hours.
