title: [Role of imbalance of sex hormones and gonadotropins in the development and course of essential hypertension in women].
abstract: Overall 146 females suffering from essential hypertension (borderline, stage I and II according to WHO, 1980) were examined for basal concentrations of estradiol, estriol, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol, ACTH, prolactin in plasma, LH and FSH in blood and urine. The patients and 69 control normotensive females were reproductive, premenopausal, menopausal, postmenopausal, postcastration. Latent hypertension was elicited at bicycle exercise. It was found that relationships between sex hormones and gonadotropins both in hypertensive and normotensive women did not differ noticeably in reproductive period and in menopause. Hormone defects due to primary and secondary infertility, castration, menopause did not raise the risk of arterial hypertension onset. An-Unfavorable course of hypertension was observed in premenopause, following operative castration, in climacteric syndrome. The severity of AH at reproductive age was associated with hyposecretion of progesterone, estrogens and gonadotropins LH, FSH. This relationship was absent in menopausal women. A conclusion is proposed on miner significance of sex hormones imbalance and gonadotropins in the onset of arterial hypertension in females varying by generative activity.
