Plasma Progesterone Concentrations After Administration via Intravaginal Rings

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1979
Intravaginal rings (IVRs) fabricated from polysiloxane (silastic 382) and containing 708+ or -4.7 mg of progesterone (P) in the polysiloxane core of the ring were tested for efficacy of natural P administration through this route. 8 women volunteered.

Serum steroid levels during 12-week intravaginal dehydroepiandrosterone administration

Menopause, 2009
Because a previous 1-week study has shown no or minimal changes in the serum levels of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its metabolites after up to daily 1.8% (23.4 mg) intravaginal DHEA, the objective of the present study was to investigate the serum steroid levels during a 12-week daily intravaginal administration of 0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, and 1.0% DHEA ...

Intravaginal administration of progesterone: enhanced absorption after estrogen treatment

Fertility and Sterility, 1981
A progesterone solution was administered by intravaginal instillation, intramuscular injection, and sublingually to estrogen-deficient women, with or without estradiol (E2) replacement, and serum progesterone (P) concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay. Intravaginal application to postmenopausal subjects receiving E2 gave the highest values of

Intravaginal Administration of Conjugated Estrogens in Premenopausal and Postmenopausal Women

International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 1980
ABSTRACTDaily doses of 0.625 mg of conjugated estrogens were administered intravaginally for 14 days to 12 postmenopausal women (six with highly atrophic and six with slightly atrophic vaginal mucosa), resulting in vaginal mucosae similar to those found in premenopausal women in all 12 subjects.

Intravaginal oestrogen and progestin administration: advantages and disadvantages

Best Practice & Research Clinical Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2008
The 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 ...
