Estrogen has been shown to cause growth in receptor-positive tumors which are hormone sensitive so it is suggested that progesterone is administered to postmenopausal women on estrogen to protect against clinical malignancy. In relation to cancer endometrial cancer always responds to estrogen deprivation ...
Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease with a higher prevalence in women. Expression of estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) gene has been identified throughout the brain. Owing to the putative neuroprotective effects ... Suk L. Ma,Nelson L. S. Tang,Cindy W. C. Tam,....
Tissue levels of cytosolic estrogen receptors (ERc) and progesterone receptors (PRc) have been shown to have prognostic meaning in hormonally responsive cancers arising in the breast and endometrium. Although carcinomas of the uterine cervix rarely respond to hormonal manipulation, the normal cervical ...
sex is usually referred to as orgasm and scientific research claims that orgasm helps in the expulsion of toxic chemicals from the body. Sex hormones such as testosterone and estrogen also peak during sex and of course, there is a link to good health with enough of these chemicals in the ...
to protect bones. However, its production decreases drastically after the onset of menopause, thus making bones susceptible to greater damage. Even for the women who are not post-menopausal, if they have a very irregular menstrual system, this may direct towards difficulties in Estrogen production....
BACKGROUND: Basic conventional prognostic factors for breast cancer include the age of the patient, tumor grade, regional lymph nodes status, and estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PR) receptor status. Positivity of the HER2 receptor (c-erbB-2) seems to be a new prognostic and predictive factor....
Sex differences, cardiovascular disease, estrogen, steroid hormonesNearly one-third of deaths in the United States are caused by cardiovascular disease (CVD) each year. In the past, CVD was thought to mainly affect men leading to the exclusion of women and female animals from clinical studies ...
This review summarizes the case for investing in adolescence as a period of rapid growth, learning, adaptation, and formational neurobiological development. Adolescence is a dynamic maturational period during which young lives can pivot rapidly—in both
Estrogens act through binding to estrogen receptor ± (ER±) and (ER). Studies in knockout mice have shown that the absence of ER± leads to the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) phenotype. Furthermore, the expression of ER gene is lower in follicles derived from women with PCOS compared wi...
