This study aimed to examine the effects of two contraceptive drugs on dysmenorrhea and mastodynia after nine months of use. The results showed that these drugs had a significant impact in reducing the symptoms of these two gynecologic conditions, offering new possibilities for treatment.
Introduction Dysmenorrhea and mastodynia are the most common gynecologic pain causes in women of all ages and races during their reproductive life. The following study aimed to show the influence of two POP ' s in the development of dysmenorrhea and mastodynia after nine months of use. Material and methods A total of 858 women with 6691 drospirenone (DRSP) cycles and 332 women with 2487 desogestrel (DSG) cycles were analyzed. Women included in this study were all child-bearing potentials, at risk of pregnancy, agreeing to use only the study medication for contraception for the duration of the study medication treatment, aged 18 to 45. Results At screening, 168 (19.6%) of the 858 patients using DRSP and 64 (19,3%) of the DSG patients reported that they had suffered from dysmenorrhea within six cycles prior to the first visit before starting with the medication. 20,2% of the DRSP and 10,9% of the DSG group had a sever dysmenorrhea. After 9 cycles this was reduced to 0,6% and 3,1% respectively. In total, 96 women (11.2%) in the DRSP and 49 (14,8%) experienced mastodynia within six cycles before the screening. Of these 91.6% in the DRSP group and 91,8% in the DSG group had no or mild mastodynoa at follow-up. Discussion The progestins 4 mg and desogestrel 0,075 mg showed a marked effect in the non-contraceptive aspects of dysmenorrhea and mastodynia so that new possibilities are opened for these two benign gynecological diseases. Future studies must reaffirm these first data.
