title: [Action of dydrogesterone in postpubertal menstruation disorders].
abstract: Seventy-four post-pubertal young women with menstrual disturbances of a functional nature were treated with 20 mg of dydrogesterone per day from the 16th to the 25th day of the cycle for three cycles. Overall efficacy was considered satisfactory, results being significantly more positive with regard to disturbances in the duration of the cycle rather than excessively heavy periods. The authors draw attention to the possibility of the restoration of luteal function in a patient treated with dydrogesterone and the validity of temperature curve and plasma progesterone levels in this context.
