Abstract

Herein, joint recommendations for diagnosis and treatment of vulvo-vaginal atrophy (VVA) in women in the peri- and post-menopausal phases from the Societa Italiana per la Menopausa (SIM) and the Societa Italiana della Terza Eta (SIGiTE) are presented. The recommendations are aimed at all healthcare personnel caring for women in the menopausal transition or postmenopausal phase, and are also intended to raise awareness of VVA. Recent data clearly indicate VVA is a highly prevalent condition among postmenopausal women, and that the vast majority of women with VVA are not adequately treated. In reality, diagnosis of VVA is simple and largely clinical. Many types of treatments are available for VVA, ranging from preventive education measures to local non-hormonal therapies, local agents that modulate hormonal receptors and systemic as well as laser therapy and radiofrequency. Regardless of the therapeutic approach adopted, greater communication between the physician and the woman with VVA should be actively encouraged. This is also in light of the difficulty of talking about the VVA and related disorders. Greater communication also encourages adequate therapy and thus minimizes the impact of VVA on the quality of life of the woman and her partner.

Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of menopause transition on body weight, and body composition in a Sicilian climacteric population., Methods: Two hundred and nine (60 pre- and one 149 postmenopausal) untreated, healthy women were selected. Body composition was estimated by BIA101 of AKERN SRL. Body Mass Index (BMI), waist and hip circumferences were also measured., Results: The mean BMI of the study population was 29.4+/-0.7. There was no significative difference between pre- and postmenopausal subjects regarding BMI (chi-squared=9.25; P=0.16), its class distribution, fat mass (FM), TBW and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR). The FM was significantly more represented in pre- than in postmenopausal women (47.43+/-1.33 vs 45.02+/-0.81 kg) (P<0.01). Linear regression analysis showed a positive correlation between BMI and fat free mass (FM) percentage (chi-squares=0.7045) nevertheless among the subjects aged=or>55 years, in 57% of the normo-weight the body fat (BF) percentage was undesirably high., Conclusion: Climacteric changes and aging process are related to changes in body weight and fat distribution; even subjects apparently ''normo-weight'' (BMI below 25) were ''over-fat'', because revealed undesirably high BF%. Further investigation in larger population is needed to define whether BMI or BF% better predicts the risk of obesity-related diseases in climacteric Sicilian women.

Abstract

The authors report two pregnancies that occurred within a brief period of time in the same woman, who suffered from a histologically diagnosed membranous glomerulonephritis. The good final result is to be related to the active cooperation among obstetrists and nephrologists specialists. Moreover, they point out the full unsuitability of the schemes for the evaluation of the obstetric risk in women with chronic pathologies.
