title: Hemostasis by premedication with estrogen in hair-transplant surgery.
abstract: Premedication with water-soluble conjugated estrogens administered the previous day and a half-hour before operation diminished bleeding and allows for a drier field, better vision and quicker work. Post-operative bleeding is negligible. Their short-term use has not led to feminization nor presented cardiovascular problems.
