Abstract

Objective. To reveal the specific characteristics of a regimen to effectively use menoril in the therapy of menopausal syndrome (MS). Subjects and methods. A total of 96 early menopause patients diagnosed with MS were followed up. The severity of MS was estimated using a questionnaire in view of neurovegetative, metabolic endocrine, and psychoemotional disorders. Questionnaire interviewing was repeated after administration of menoril. Results. A month after initiation of its therapy was marked by obvious positive changes and a dose-dependent effect - higher-dose menoril increased the probability of a positive effect and reduced the magnitude of the symptoms of MS. Conclusion. This investigation suggests that menoril is highly effective in women with different degrees of MS. The use of menoril may be regarded as a pathogenetically sound alternative to relieve MS also in women who have contraindications to menopausal hormonal therapy or in those who refuse to take hormonal agents.
