    Abstract:
    The results of the examinations of 70 healthy women of childbearing age with a 2-phase menstrual cycle are presented. The effect of medicated IUDs on proliferative processes in the endometrium was studied by examining the cytological characteristics of the endometrium and by the impulse cytophotometric levels of DNA in the endometrium cell nuclei. No pronounced changes in the cytological picture of the endometrium in these women were observed in situ. The quantitative determination of DNA revealed an insignificant decrease in the proliferative activity of the endometrium due to the effect of the medicated IUD. (author's modified)
