Abstract

Objective. To make a systematic review of the data available in the literature regarding the possibilities of hormonal contraception in women with androgen-dependent dermopathies. Material and methods. For analysis, foreign and Russian publications over the past 15 years were sought in the international citation system Pubmed. Results. The types of androgen-dependent dermopathies, their origin, and the mechanism of development are described; the endocrine and metabolic factors underlying the clinical symptoms of skin damage are discussed. The paper underlines the importance of diagnosis of the diseases, the symptoms of which are androgen-dependent dermopathies, and the need for symptomatic treatment of skin disorders due to their significant impact on the state of mind in women. Conclusion. The results of clinical trials that have shown the efficiency of using hormonal contraceptives to treat androgen-dependent dermopathies are analyzed. An algorithm for the individual choice of a drug in the context of the health status and wishes of a female patient is presented.
