PURPOSE: to evaluate the use of natural latex mold (Hevea brasiliensis) as a modification of McIndoe and Bannister neovaginoplasty in patients presenting Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MKRH) syndrome. METHODS: we retrospectively included nine patients presenting MKRH syndrome, who had been submitted to McIndoe and Bannister neovaginoplasty modified by the use of natural latex mold. Neovaginal epithelization and depth, coitus occurrence and satisfaction, and surgical complications were evaluated. RESULTS: five weeks after the procedure, eight patients presented an epithelized 7 to 12 cm deep neovagina. There was one case of complete neovaginal stenosis, because of incorrect use of the mold. After at least one year, the others maintained 4 to 8 cm deep neovaginas and capacity for intercourse, with 66.7% satisfaction. One woman presented precocious rectovaginal fistula and late episodes of uretrovaginal fistulae. Two patients presented distal neovaginal stenosis in long-term follow-up. One of these and the patient with fistulae were submitted to a new procedure. CONCLUSIONS: the use of natural latex mold as a modification of classic neovaginoplasty technique allows the creation of neovaginas morphologically and functionally similar to the normal vagina in patients with vaginal agenesis.

PURPOSE: To compare the metabolic parameters, body composition and muscle strength of women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) to those of women with ovulatory menstrual cycles. METHODS: A case-control study was conducted on 27 women with PCOS and 28 control women with ovulatory cycles, aged 18 to 27 years with a body mass index of 18 to 39.9 kg/m², who did not practice regular physical activity. Serum testosterone, androstenedione, prolactin, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), insulin and glycemia levels were determined. Free androgen index (FAI) and resistance to insulin (by HOMA) were calculated. The volunteers were submitted to evaluation of body composition based on skin folds and DEXA and to 1-RM maximum muscle strength tests in three exercises after familiarization procedures and handgrip isometric force was determined. RESULTS: Testosterone levels were higher in the PCOS group than in the Control Group (68.07±20.18 versus 58.20±12.82 ng/dL; p=0.02), as also were the FAI (282.51±223.86 versus 127.08±77.19; p=0.01), insulin (8.41±7.06 versus 4.05±2.73 µIU/mL; p=0.01), and HOMA (2.3±2.32 versus 1.06±0.79; p=0.01), and SBHG levels were lower (52.51±43.27 versus 65.45±27.43 nmol/L; p=0.04). No significant differences in body composition were observed between groups using the proposed methods. The PCOS group showed greater muscle strength in the 1-RM test in the bench press (31.2±4.75 versus 27.79±3.63 kg; p=0.02), and leg extension exercises (27.9±6.23 versus 23.47±4.21 kg; p=0.02) as well as handgrip isometric force (5079.61±1035.77 versus 4477.38±69.66 kgf/m², p=0.04). PCOS was an independent predictor of increase muscle strength in bench press exercises (estimate (E)=2.7) (p=0.04) and leg extension (E=3.5) (p=0.04), and BMI in the exercise of isometric handgrip (E=72.2) (p<0.01), bench press (E=0.2) (p=0.02) and arm curl (E=0.3) (p<0.01). No association was found between HOMA-IR and muscle strength. CONCLUSIONS: Women with POS showed greater muscle strength, with no difference in body composition, and IR was not associated with muscle strength performance. Muscle strength may be possibly related to high levels of androgens in these women.

PURPOSE: to evaluate the rate of chemically diagnosed pregnancy (serum beta-HCG>25 mIU/mL levels obtained fourteen days after the embryonic transfer) clinically diagnosed pregnancy (gestational sac visualized by ultrasound four to six weeks after the embryonic transfer) and miscarriage rates in women submitted in vitro fertilization to (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in a tertiary center of assisted reproduction and to correlate these rates with age. METHODS: retrospective transverse study with analysis of 1016 cycles of controlled ovarian hyperstimulation of 932 infertile women with indication of IVF (370 cycles) or ICSI (646 cycles). The patients' age ranged from 22 to 46 years. All women with age over 35 years included in the study had FSH<15 IU/L. The studied cycles were divided into two groups: the first including the cycles referring to women of 22 to 30 years and the second group, to those of 31 to 46 years. The studied variables were: pregnancy (chemical or clinical) and miscarriage rates. The chi2 test was used to compare these rates between the groups. RESULTS: the total pregnancy rate was 36.42%, with a significant reduction starting at 30 years (p=0.0001). From 22 to 30 years (303 cycles) the pregnancy rate was 45.4%, while in the range from 31 to 46 years (713 cycles), it was 25.1%. The miscarriage rates were, 10.2 11,6%, respectively (p=0.6854). CONCLUSION: although the miscarriage rates did not differ between the groups, a decrease in the pregnancy rate of infertile women submitted to IVF or ICSI was observed after the age of 30 years. Thus, we recommend the gynecologists not to postpone the investigation and the referral for treatment of infertility.

Purpose: to assess ovarian reserve by FSH determination on the 3rd day of the menstrual cycle compared to the clomiphene test and to correlate the results with the ovarian response to controlled hyperstimulation with gonadotrophins for in vitro fertilization. Methods: a total of 49 patients older than 30 years who had been presenting a clinical picture of infertility for at least 1 year were selected. All patients were evaluated for ovarian reserve by the clomiphene citrate test and 26 of them were later submitted to controlled ovarian hyperstimulation with gonadotrophins. Of these 26 patients, 18 showed a good response to ovarian hyperstimulation and 8 showed a poor response. Mean (+ SD) FSH values were calculated for the determinations on the 3rd and on the 10th day and for their sum in the group of patients who responded favorably to ovarian stimulation, and were later correlated with the ovarian response after gonadotrophin stimulation. Results: employing a FSH value > 16.1 IU/mL on the 10th day (mean plus 2 SD) for the prediction of a poor ovarian response in the clomiphene test, the sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of this parameter were 50, 100, 100 and 81.8%, respectively. Considering the clomiphene test to be positive when the sum of the FSH values determined on the 3rd and 10th day plus 2 SD was > 22.6 IU/mL, we obtained 62.5% sensitivity 100% specificity, 100% positive predictive value, and 85.7% negative predictive value. A single FSH determination of 10 IU/mL on the 3rd day of the cycle for the prediction of a poor ovarian response showed 87% sensitivity, 100% specificity, 100% positive predictive value and 94.7% negative predictive value. Conclusion: in the present study, a single FSH determination on the 3rd day of the cycle showed to be more sensitive than the clomiphene test for the evaluation of ovarian reserve.

Aerobic exercises may improve quality of life (QoL) in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, there is no data on the effect of resistance exercise training (RET) programs on the QoL of women with PCOS. Thus, this study aimed to assess the effect of a 16-week RET program on QoL in PCOS women.
This 16-week case-control study enrolled 43 women with PCOS (PCOS group, PCOSG) and 51 healthy pre-menopausal controls aged 18 to 37 years (control group, CG). All women underwent a supervised RET program for 16 weeks, and were evaluated in two different occasions: week-0 (baseline), and week-16 (after RET). Quality of life was assessed using the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36).
Testosterone reduced significantly in both groups after RET (p < 0.01). The PCOSG had improvements in functional capacity at week-16 relative to week-0 (p = 0.02). The CG had significant improvements in vitality, social aspects, and mental health at week-16 relative to week-0 (p ≤ 0.01). There was a weak correlation between social aspects of the SF-36 domain and testosterone levels in PCOS women.
A 16-week RET program modestly improved QoL in women with PCOS.

PURPOSE: to compare echographical cardiovascular risk factors between obese and non-obese patients with micropolycystic ovarian syndrome (MPOS). METHODS: in this transversal study, 30 obese (Body Mass Index, BMI>30 kg/m²) and 60 non-obese (BMI<30 kg/m²) MPOS patients, aging between 18 and 35 years old, were included. The following variables were measured: flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) of the brachial artery, thickness of the intima-media of the carotid artery (IMT), anthropometric data, systolic arterial pressure (SAP) and diastolic arterial pressure (DAP). The women had no previous medical treatment and no comorbidity besides MPOS and obesity. For statistical analysis, the non-paired tand Mann-Whitney's tests were used. RESULTS: obese weighted more than non-obese patients (92.1±11.7 kg versus 61.4±10.7 kg, p<0.0001) and had a larger waist circumference (105.0±10.4 cm versus 78.5±9.8 cm, p<0.0001). The SBP of obese patients was higher than that of the non-obese ones (126.1±10.9 mmHg versus 115.8±9.0 mmHg, p<0.0001) and the IMT was also bigger (0.51±0.07 mm versus 0.44±0.09 mm, p<0.0001). There was no significant difference between the groups as to FMD and carotid rigidity index (β). CONCLUSIONS: obesity in young women with MPOS is associated with higher blood pressure and alteration of arterial structure, represented by a thicker intima-media of the carotid artery.

PURPOSE: To compare the frequency of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and the risk factors associated with this syndrome in women from the Brazilian Southeast with polycystic ovary syndrome (POS) evaluated during adolescence and adult age. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study conducted on 147 patients with a diagnosis of POS who were divided into two groups: Adolescents, 42 adolescents aged 13 to 19 years, and Adults, 105 women aged 20 to 40 years. The following factors were evaluated: clinical characteristics (body mass index - BMI, Ferriman index, abdominal circumference - AC, and systemic arterial pressure), mean ovarian volume, laboratory variables (serum androgen profile, lipid profile, glycemia, and fasting insulin), and frequency of MetS. The results were expressed as mean±standard deviation. We used multiple logistic regression with the response variable being the presence of MetS and the predictor variables the levels of total testosterone, insulin and BMI. RESULTS: The frequency of MetS was approximately twice higher in the group of adult women compared to the adolescents with POS (Adolescents: 23.8 vs. Adults: 42.9%, p=0.04). Among the defining criteria of MetS, only the qualitative variable of systemic arterial pressure ≥130/85 mmHg was more frequent among the adult women (p=0,01). The BMI was an independent predictor of MetS among the adolescent (p=0.03) and adult women (p<0.01) with POS. Serum insulin level was a predictor of MetS only among adult women with POS (p<0.01). AC was greater among adult women (p=0.04). CONCLUSION: Adult women with POS have a twice higher frequency of MetS than adolescents with POS from the Brazilian Southeast. Although the BMI is associated with the development of MetS in any phase of life in women with POS, serum insulin level was an independent predictor of MetS only among adult women with this disorder.
