Title: [Synthetic estroprogestatives and phlebology. Introduction]. Author: Muller P. Journal: Phlebologie; 1972; 25(3):223-6. PubMed ID: 4662045.

Such complications are almost never seen in women treated with progestin preparations, even in very high doses, and occur primarily in women with histories of thromboembolism or varicoses. The occurrence of these complications in late pregnancy and the puerperium, when estrogen levels are particularly high, is also an argument pointing to estrogens as a responsible factor.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
