Changes in psychic and somatic well-being and cognitive capabilities of peri- and postmenopausal women after the use of a hormone replacement drug containing estradiol valerate and levonorgestrel.
2000
A multicenter, prospective, open-label postmarketing surveillance study examined to what extent 2-month oral hormone replacement therapy (estradiol valerate and levonorgestrel; Klimonorm®) could produce changes in psychosomatic well-being, self esteem and cognitive capabilities in 78 peri- and postmenopausal women. The women included were 42-58 years of age and had approached the physician due to climacteric symptoms. The following tests were used: Kupperman index. Menopause Rating Scale (MRS II), General Depression Scale (ADS), Zerssen's Symptom List (B-L). Frankfurt Self-Concept Scules (FSAL. FSAP. FSEG. FSSW). Digit Symbol Substitution Test (DSST), d2 Test of Attention and Number Square Test. The results showed a clear improvement in subjective psychosomatic well-being and improvements to a lesser extent in the concentration and cognitive capabilities in women in the third treatment cycle.
