title: [Effects of androgens and gestagens on uterine myoma].
abstract: One hundred and sixty resected intramural myomas have been examined in 78 women with an intact menstrual cycle: 61 nodes from 31 patients of 37 to 57 years without a history of hormonal treatment, 52 nodes from 26 patients of 39 to 57 years with a history of androgen treatment and 47 nodes from 21 women of 30 to 50 years with a history of gestagen treatment. The histologic, histochemical, morphometric and biochemical studies showed that androgen and gestagen treatment stabilized and diminished the myomas, promoted secondary changes in the nodes and caused a statistically significant activation of sclerotic processes. Therapeutic effects of androgens were superior to those of gestagens.
