title: [The state of specific functions in female workers subjected to exposure to epoxy resins and to epoxy resin-based polymeric materials during work activities (the data from a medical examination)].
abstract: Our in-plant hygienic observations permitted ascertaining that female workers engaged in the manufacture of epoxy-based polymeric materials are exposed to a complex of adverse factors. Gynecological and extragenital pathologies are most prevalent as are disorders in specific functions of the female organism. It is considered necessary that a complex of practical, sanitary and hygienic, and treatment and prophylactic measures be implemented in order that disturbances in specific functions of the female organism might be prevented, values for the prevalence of gynecological and extragenital pathologies decreased. Hormonal colpocytoscopy is warranted in early diagnosis of the menstrual disorders.
