Terapia hormonal e sexualidade em mulheres na pós-menopausa / Hormone therapy and sexuality in postmenopausal women

Penteado, Sônia Regina Lenharo 14 September 2004 (has links)
OBJETIVOS. Verificar os efeitos da terapia hormonal com derivados estrogênicos e progestogênicos, isolados ou associados à metiltestosterona, na sexualidade e nos sintomas climatéricos em mulheres na pós-menopausa e comparar os dois tipos de terapia hormonal. CASUÍSTICA. Selecionaram-se sessenta mulheres sexualmente ativas, com queixas sexuais, com relacionamento estável com parceiro capacitado para o coito, com idade de 42 a sessenta anos (média etária 52,1 + 4 anos) e tempo de menopausa de um a 28 anos (média 5,6 anos). Excluíram-se mulheres com doenças sistêmicas, doenças psiquiátricas, endócrinas, distopias genitais, tabagistas e usuárias de terapia hormonal ou de medicamentos que apresentavam interferência na sexualidade. METODOLOGIA. Realizou-se estudo de coorte progressiva, duplo-cego, randomizado, com duração de 12 meses. As mulheres foram divididas em dois grupos: EP (n=29), medicadas com estrogênios conjugados (EEC) 0,625 mg + acetato de medroxiprogesterona (AMP) 2,5 mg + placebo, e grupo EP+A (n=31), medicadas com EEC 0,625 mg + AMP 2,5 mg + metiltestosterona 2,0 mg. Para estudar a sexualidade, utilizou-se o Questionário Sexual do Hospital das Clínicas e foram avaliados o desejo sexual, a excitação e a capacidade orgástica nas atividades desenvolvidas com o parceiro, o interesse sexual não vinculado, exclusivamente, às atividades desenvolvidas com o parceiro, a dispareunia, a secura vaginal e a freqüência sexual. Para as análises estatísticas, utilizaram-se Modelos Lineares Gerais para Medidas Repetidas, Análise de Variância (ANOVA), Modelos de Regressão Logística Multinomial e Qui-quadrado de Pearson. O nível de significância foi de 5%. RESULTADOS. Nos grupos EP e EP+A, houve aumento no escore de desejo sexual vinculado, exclusivamente, às atividades desenvolvidas com o parceiro (F=18,334; p<0,001), no escore de excitação sexual (F=14,022; p < 0,001), na capacidade orgástica (F=34,650; p < 0,001) e na freqüência sexual (F=7,687; p=0,008), bem como redução da secura vaginal (?2=44,153; p<0,001), da dispareunia (?2=34,447; p < 0,001) e do índice menopausal de Kupperman (F=158,460; p < 0,001). A análise comparativa entre os grupos EP e EP+A mostrou maior interesse sexual não vinculado, exclusivamente, às atividades com o parceiro (?2=11,551; p=0,021) e mais altos índices de Castelli I (F=8,542; p < 0,001) e índices de Castelli II (F=11,500; p < 0,001) no grupo EP+A. Não se observaram hirsutismo nem alopécia em nenhum dos grupos; acne grau I foi observada em duas mulheres do grupo EP e em 13 do grupo EP+A. CONCLUSÕES. As terapias hormonais com derivados estrogênicos e progestogênicos, isolados ou associados à metiltestosterona, causaram impacto positivo em todos os parâmetros sexuais e nos sintomas climatéricos analisados. A associação de metiltestosterona ao tratamento estro-progestacional aumentou o interesse sexual não vinculado, exclusivamente, às atividades com o parceiro e os índices de Castelli I e II. Nos demais parâmetros estudados, não houve diferença entre os dois grupos / Objectives: To verify the effects of hormone therapy with estrogen and progesterone derivatives when used singly or combined with methyltestosterone, on sexuality and on climacteric symptoms in postmenopausal women. Subjects: The series included sixty-sexually active women, with sexual complaints, in a stable relationship with a partner capable of intercourse, ages ranging from 42 to sixty years (average 52,1 + 4) and menopause time from one to 28 years (average 5,6). Excluded were women with systemic diseases, psychiatric and endocrine disorders, genital dystopias, smokers and those on hormone therapy or medications that affect sexuality. Method: A double blind, randomized, progressive cohort study was performed over a twelve month period. The women were divided into two groups: EP (n=29), medicated with conjugated estrogens (EEC) 0,625 mg + medroxyprogesterone acetate (AMP) 2,5 mg + placebo, and group EP+A (n=31), medicated with EEC 0,625 mg + AMP 2,5 mg + methyltestosterone 2,0 mg. For the study of sexuality, the Hospital das Clínicas Sex Questionnaire was utilized, assessing sexual desire linked exclusively to activities developed with the partner; excitation and orgasmic capacity in activities with the partner; sexual interest not linked exclusively to activities developed with the partner; dyspareunia, vaginal dryness and sexual frequency. For statistical analysis, the General Linear Models for Repeated Measures, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Multinomial Logistic Regression Models and Pearson Chi square were employed. A 5% significance level was adopted. Results: In groups EP and EP+A, was observed an increase in the sexual desire score linked exclusively to activities developed with the partner (F=18,334; p<0,001), sexual excitation (F=14,002; p<0,001), orgasmic capacity (F=34,650; p < 0,001) and in sexual frequency (F=7,687; p=0,008), as well as an reduction in vaginal dryness (x2=44,153; p < 0,001), dyspareunia (x2=34,447; p < 0,001) and in the Kupperman menopausal index (F=158,460; p < 0,001). Comparative analysis between groups EP and EP+A revealed a greater sexual interest not linked exclusively to activities with the partner (x2=11,551; p=0,021) and higher Castelli I index (F=8,542; p < 0,001) and Castelli II index (F=11,500; p<0,001) in group EP+A. Neither hirsutism nor alopecia were noticed in either group; Class I acne was observed in two women of group EP and in 13 of group EP+A. Conclusion: Hormone therapy with estrogen and progesterone derivatives used singly or together with methyltestosterone had a positive result on all sexual parameters and on climacteric symptoms analyzed. Association of methyltestosterone to estrogen-progesterone treatment increased sexual interest not linked exclusively to activities with the partner and Castelli I and II indexes. No difference between the two groups in the other parameters studied was demonstrated

Risque d’acquisition du virus de l’immunodéficience humaine (VIH) chez les femmes utilisant des hormones contraceptives orales et injectables

Tijanic, Sophie 05 1900 (has links)
Objectif : Étudier l'association entre l’utilisation de contraceptifs hormonaux et le risque d'acquisition du VIH-1 chez les femmes au Malawi, en Afrique du Sud, en Zambie et au Zimbabwe. Devis : Analyses secondaires de 2887 femmes âgées de 17-55 ans ayant participé à l’étude HPTN 035, une étude de phase II/IIb sur l’efficacité de deux gels microbicides pour prévenir la transmission du VIH chez les femmes à risque. Méthodes : L'association entre l'utilisation de contraceptifs hormonaux et le risque d'acquisition du VIH-1 a été évaluée en utilisant des modèles de Cox. Des risques relatifs sont estimés où le groupe de référence est celui des femmes qui n’utilisent pas de contraceptifs hormonaux. De plus, un modèle multivarié de Cox est utilisé afin de contrôler pour les facteurs potentiellement confondants. Résultats : Les contraceptifs injectables ont été utilisés par 52,1% des femmes, alors que les contraceptifs oraux ont été utilisés par 20,7% de celles-ci. Pendant l'étude, il y a eu 192 séroconversions. L'incidence observée du VIH était de 2,28; 4,19 et 4,69 pour 100 personne-années pour les contraceptifs oraux, injectables et non hormonaux, respectivement. Lors de l’analyse multivariée, nous n'avons trouvé aucune association significative entre l’usage des contraceptifs hormonaux et l’acquisition du VIH-1. Le risque relatif ajusté (RRa) pour les contraceptifs oraux est de 0,573 (IC de 95% : [0,31-1,06]) et 0,981 (IC de 95% : [0,69 ; 1,39]) pour les contraceptifs injectables. Conclusions : Bien que cette étude ne démontre pas d’association entre l’usage des contraceptifs hormonaux et le VIH-1, nous concluons toutefois que ces méthodes de contraception ne protègent pas contre le VIH-1, et il est ainsi recommandé aux femmes utilisant des hormones contraceptives de toujours utiliser le condom pour prévenir l'infection au VIH-1. / Objective: To investigate the association between the use of hormonal contraceptive and the risk of acquiring HIV-1 infection in women from Malawi, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Design: Secondary analyses of 2887 women aged 17-55 years who participated in the HPTN 035 trial, a Phase II/IIb trial on the efficacy of two microbicide gels to prevent HIV transmission in women at risk in Africa. Methods: The association between the use of hormonal contraceptive and the risk of acquiring HIV-1 was evaluated using Cox proportionnal models. Relative risks of exposed women were estimated using as a reference group the women who do not use hormonal contraceptives. In addition, a multivariate Cox model was used to control for potentially confounding factors. Results: Injectable contraceptives were used by 52.1 % of women, while oral contraceptives were used by 20.7% of them. During the study, there were 192 seroconversions. The observed HIV-1 incidence was 2.28, 4.19 and 4.69 per 100 woman-years for oral, injectable and non-hormonal contraceptive users, respectively. In multivariate analysis, we found no significant association between the use of hormonal contraceptives and HIV-1 acquisition. The adjusted relative risk (aRR) for oral contraceptives was 0.573 (95% CI: [0.31 to 1.06]) and 0.981 (95% CI: [0.69, 1.39]) for injectable contraceptives. Conclusions: Although this study did not demonstrate an association between hormonal contraceptive use and the risk of HIV-1 infection, we conclude, however, that these methods of contraception do not protect against HIV-1, and it is thus recommended that women using contraceptive hormones always use condoms to prevent HIV-1.
