Neuroendocrine mechanisms of lactational infertility in women.
The current knowledge on the mechanisms of lactational infertility, discussed during a symposium of investigators in this subject, is reviewed. Three periods of lactation are examined: the first weeks postpartum, the period of extended lactational amenorrhea and the recovery of ovarian function. In the first postpartum weeks the inhibition of ovarian function is accounted by diminished pituitar...
متن کاملMaternal prolactin concentrations and lactational behaviour in the early postpartum period in women with lactational amenorrhoea.
OBJECTIVE To compare early postpartum differences in maternal prolactin concentrations and lactational behaviour between women who have short and long periods of lactational amenorrhoea. METHODS Healthy lactating women resuming regular menstruation before 24 weeks [short amenorrhoea (SA) group; n = 15], and at or after 24 weeks [long amenorrhoea (LA) group; n = 15] postpartum were studied fro...
متن کاملLactational amenorrhoea in well-nourished Toba women of Formosa, Argentina.
The proximate causes of the contraceptive effect of lactation are still a matter of productive debate. This study sought to disentangle the relative impact that intense breast-feeding practices and maternal nutrition have on the regulation of ovarian function in nursing women. A mixed-longitudinal, direct-observational, prospective study was conducted of the return to postpartum fecundity in 11...
متن کاملThe Pharmacokinetics of Alcohol in Healthy Adults
Alcohol is a commonly used drug that has many important health consequences. To understand its physiological effects and predict drug interactions it is important to understanding alcohol’s pharmacokinetics and the factors that influence it. A brief review of the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of alcohol is provided. Along with a discussion of important factors that influen...
متن کاملAlcohol consumption and alcohol pharmacokinetics: interactions within the normal population.
We have analyzed the interrelationships between habitual alcohol consumption, peak blood alcohol concentration after a standard dose, and rate of alcohol metabolism in a group of 199 male and 213 female twins. Both peak concentration and rate of metabolism are strongly associated with alcohol consumption levels, even in the range of 0-10 g of alcohol/day. The peak concentration and rate of meta...
