Gynecological endocrinology in Kharkov

One of the most acute medical problems of Kharkiv is endocrine gynecological diseases. Gynecological endocrinology, having emerged at the intersection of two therapeutic areas (gynecology and endocrinology), requires a doctor to possess knowledge both in female genital sphere as well as in the hormonal system.

It is difficult to underestimate the role of hormones. It is them that make a woman: they control the whole vital activity, starting with reproductive function, maintain vascular tone, have an effect on affection – all these are hormone functions.

Indications for consultation by gynecologist-endocrinologist:

• irregular period over extended intervals (duration failure of more than 3 cycles);
• excessive and painful menstruation;
• acnes and cycle disorders;
• gaining in weight affected by menstrual disorders;
• loss of hair;
• growth of hair in uncommon places (hair on belly, male pattern of hair distribution);
• failure to become pregnant;
• in women over 40: heat waves, urinary incontinence.

The so-called “big city stress” which also characteristic for Kharkiv, is associated with imbalance of hormones and with disorders in genital sphere, correspondingly: menstrual disorders, hyperplasia, endometrosis, uterine mioma, infertility – this is not a complete list of possible problems.
