A Comparison Effect of Dysmenorrhea and Secondary Amenorrhea in the Concentration of Some Biochemical and Some Hormones in Women in Tikrit City
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study was conducted in the city of Tikrit – Salaha-Din General Hospital for the period from November 2017 to June 2018 to compare the effects of dysmenorrhea and secondary amenorrhea in blood glucose concentrations, cholesterol, and some hormones FSH, LH, PRL, Progesterone, Estrogen, and Testosterone in women in Tikrit. Salahal-Den government the number of women with dysmenorrhea, secondary amenorrhea, and healthy (30) in all women group respectively. 5ml blood was withdrawn from all women in the study and the serum was separated by common laboratory methods. The results showed no significant differences between all study groups in blood glucose concentrations, while women with secondary amenorrhea were significantly higher (P≤0.05) in cholesterol concentrations compared to the healthy group and significantly higher (P≤0.01) for women with secondary amenorrhea in FSH, LH, PRL, Progesterone, E2, Testosterone compared to the group of women with dysmenorrhea and the group of healthy. The group of women with dysmenorrhea was significantly higher (P≤0.05) in Progesterone, Testosterone concentrations comported with the healthy women group and Women with dysmenorrhea. We conclusion that secondary amenorrhea was a more effective in increasing concentrations of hormones that prevent the occurrence of ovulation compared with the dysmenorrhea effects.
