  • Title: [Effect of intrauterine contraceptives on the mitotic regimen of the endometrium].
    Author: Ezhova LS, Zheleznov BI, Antipova NB.
    Journal: Akush Ginekol (Mosk); 1980 Mar; (3):39-40. PubMed ID: 7377498.
    Abstract:
    The endometrial mitotic regimen during the middle stage of proliferation and secretion was studied in 22 women who had used IUDs for 6 months-1 year. A considerable decrease in mitotic activity, a change in the correlation between metaphases and prophases, and a relative increase in the number of pathological mitoses were established. The use of the IUD for 11-12 months does not result in qualitative alteration of the mitotic regimen which is characteristic of the pronounced proliferative processes in the endometrium.
