HORMONAL CONTRACEPTIVES

ORAL, PARENTERAL & IMPLANTED CONTRACEPTIVES

O.C – 1.Combinations of estrogens and progestins 2.Sole progestin therapy

Monophasic Biphasic Triphasic

FORMS

No change of both componentsduring the cycle

Dosage of one or both components changed Once during the cycle

Dosage of one or both components changed twice during the cycle

13

PROGESTERONE

14Properties of commonly used progestin

15

ESTROGENS AND PROGESTINS -CLINICAL USE

Contraception

Hormone replacement therapy-post menopasal, hypogonadism, (along with

Gonadotropins/growth hormones in delay)

Antiprogestins abortifacients, contraception

Estrogen antagonists estrogen dependent

neoplasm

16

TRANSPORT - KINETICS Estradiol binds to α2 globulin (SHGB)And to albumin in lower affinity.

Estradiol Liver estrone, estriol 2hydroxylated derivatives Conjugated metabolites Water soluble excreted in bile Small amounts in breast milk

Can be activated in the intestines

Hepatic first pass effect is minimized by other routes-Transdermal,Vaginal or by injection.

17

Steroid hormones diffuse across the cell membrane and bind with high affinity to specific nuclear receptor proteins

Mechanism of action

Ligand – receptor complexForms a dimer before binding DNA

PRE -ORE

Activate gene transcriptionhormone-specific RNA synthesis

synthesis of specific proteins that mediate a number of physiologic functions

18

MECHANISM, EFFECTS OF CONTRACEPTIVES

Combinational Contraceptives block pituitary functionLeads to inhibition of ovulation

Continuous use of progestin alone does not always inhibit ovulation

Combinational agents also produce change in the cervical mucus in the uterine tubes all of which decreaseThe likelihood of conception and implantation

Effects on ovary- depress ovarian functionEffects on uterus- Hypertrophy and polyp formationEffects on breasts- Enlargement, suppress lactation, less amt. transverse in to milkCNS--------------- estrogen excites, progestin depress the brainEndocrine –inhibition of gonadotropins, adrenal structure d function, high conc. Increase in α2 globulinBlood- increased coagulability, increased dosage of coumarin analogs required, increased sr. iron and total iorn binding capacity.

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION

THE FIGURE BELOW SHOWS THE MECHANISM OF ACTION OF VIAGRA, AND THE OTHER PDE5 INHIBITORS, ON THE NITRIC OXIDE CYCLE.

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION = CONSISTENT INABILITY TO OBTAIN AND/OR MAINTAIN AN ERECTION SUFFICIENT FOR SATISFACTORY SEXUAL RELATIONS

EDED

Adapted from Rubanyi GM. J Cardiovasc Pharmacol 1993; 22 (Suppl 4): S1–S4

CAUSES OF ED

1. Organic (80 %)diabetes mellitus, hypertension,

hyperlipidemie, benign prostate disease, peripheral vascular disease, cardiac problems, hormonal problems (pituitary, testis, thyroid, adrenal), neurogenic (cerebral, spinal, dorsal nerve, cavernous nerve)

postsurgical: radical prostatectomy, abdominoperineal resection

2. Psychogenic, drugs (20 %)

DRUGS ASSOCIATED WITH ED Alcohol

· Estrogens

· Antiandrogens

· H2 receptor blockers

· Anticholinergics

· Ketoconazole

· Antidepressants

· Marijuana

· Antihypertensives

· Narcotics

· ß-blockers

· Psychotropics

· Cigarettes

· Cocaine

· Spironolactone

· Lipid-lowering agents

· NSAIDs

· Cytotoxic drugs

· Diuretics

CAUSES OF ED Neurogenic

Parkinson´s disease – 60%Multiple sclerosis – 70%Spinal cord trauma, tumor etc.Peipheral neuropathy: diabetes,

alcoholism, chronic renal failure

DIAGNOSIS OF ED MAY UNCOVER OTHER SERIOUS TREATABLE DISORDERS Hypertension

68% of men with hypertension had ED to some degree

Dyslipidemia60% of men with ED had dyslipidaemia

Heart disease56% of men with ED were found to have a

positive stress test40% of men with ED had significant

coronary occlusions

ORAL THERAPY

PDE 5 inhibitors (95%) 2-blockers (Yohimbin) hormonal therapy (testosterone)

PHOSPHODIESTERASES

Main role: termination of cyclic nucleotide second messenger signal, often cGMP

11 PDE groups (PDE 1-11) PDE-5 breaks down cGMP (the second

messenger of Nitric Oxide—NO), reversing the muscle-relaxant effect of NO

PDE-5 is found in corpus cavernosum, vascular and visceral muscles, and in platelets

CONTRAINDICATIONS Since PDE5 inhibitors such as

sildenafil, tadalafil, and Vardenafil may cause transiently low blood pressure (hypotension), organic nitrates should not be taken for at least 48 hours after taking the last dose of tadalafil. Using organic nitrates within this timeframe may increase the risk of life-threatening hypotension.
