Scope Estrogen Estrogen inhibitor Progestin Progestin inhibitor Other ovarian hormones Oral contraceptives Ovulation inducing agents Estrogen The major natural estrogens produced by women Estradiol ovary
Estrone Estriol Synthetic estrogens (estrogen-mimetic compounds) chemical substances that share the same activities as estrogen Flavonoids, palmetto, soybeans, some phenols (bisphenols, alkyl phenols), modified estrogens. ovary, liver (synthesized from estradiol by dehidrogenase type II enzyme), peripheral tissues (androstenedione / androgens) In menopause women, main source of estrogen is adipose tissues Steroidal Non-steroidal Pharmacokinetics In the circulation estrogen binds strongly to 2-globulin (sex hormone binding globulin) and weakly to albumin. Bound estrogen is unavailable for diffusions into cells free fraction that is physiologically active hydrolized in the intestine to active, reabsorbable compounds return to enterohepatic circulation (results in hepatic effects such as increased synthesis of clotting factors and plasma renin substrate). Hepatic effects can be reduced by routes that avoid first-pass liver exposure non oral (vaginal, transdermal patch, injection) and ERE Pharmacodynamics Female maturation Normal sexual maturation (vagina, uterus and uterine tubes) Growth (accelerated growth phase) Secondary sex characteristics (development and ductal growth of breast) Endometrial effects Development of endometrial lining, menstrual cycle regulation together with progesterone. Pharmacodynamics Metabolic and cardiovascular effect Decrease the rate of calcium resorption of bone, continuous remodelling through apoptosis of osteoclast and stimulation of osteoblast bone growth. Increased triglyceride, HDL; decreased total cholesterol, LDL Blood coagulation Enhance the coagulity of blood. Pharmacodynamics Other effects Induces progesteron synthesis Libido in humans (female)
Clinical uses Primary hypogonadism (Prader-Wili syndrome) Small doses given in early age to stimulate secondary sex characteristics, growth and menstrual cycle (5-10 ug ethinyl estradiol on days 1 21 each month) Post-menopausal hormonal therapy (hormonal replacement therapy / HRT) To prevent from menopausal changes such as acceleration of bone loss (pathological fracture), aceleration of atherosclerotic process, mood and psychological changes, hot flushes, sleep disturbances (0.01 0.02 mg/d ethinyl estradiol on days 1 21) severe infantile hypotonia with poor suck and failure to thrive; hypogonadism causing genital hypoplasia and pubertal insufficiency; characteristic facial features; early- childhood onset obesity and hyperphagia; developmental delay/mild intellectual disability; short stature; and a distinctive behavioral phenotype Genetics in Medicine (2012) 14, 1026 Clinical uses Contraception In combination with progestin Available preparat For primary hypogonadism or HRT Estriol tablet 1 and 2 mg, 2 4 tablet/day Estradiol valerat tablet 2 mg, 1 tablet/day 17- estradiol patch 100 ug/day Ethinyl estradiol tablet 50 ug For contraception Adverse effect Menstrual cycle disturbances (dysfunctional uterine bleeding / amenorrhea) Cancer Nausea Breast tenderness Hyperpigmentation Migraine-type headache Increased blood pressure Increased body weight Edema Contraindication Pregnant women Breastfeeding women Liver disturbances Thromboembolic disorders Hypertension Lipid profile disturbances Estrogen-dependent neoplasm Interaction Metabolized in Cyp3A4 Stimulation of Cyp3A4 decreased of effect Phenobarbital, carbamazepin, rifampicin Inhibition of Cyp3A4 increased of effect Erithromycin, ketoconazole, itraconazole, grapefruit juices Estrogen Inhibitors Clomiphene Pure estrogen antagonist in all tissues structurally mimics the estrogen without estrogenic activity. Bound to ligand binding pocket from and receptor of estrogen result in negative feed- back inhibition of estrogen increased GnRH secretion stimulate ovulation Clinical use : woman infertility without disturbances in hypothalamus hipophysis ovarium axis Estrogen Inhibitors Clomiphene Metabolized by liver, excreted through feses. Long half-life : 5 7 days, accumulated in lipid tissues. Dose : 50 150 mg (single or twice a day depends on response) start from day 5 to day 10. Adverse effect : ovarium cyst, dryness of vagina, headache. Contraindication : pregnancy Selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) Genetically modified works as agonist in some tissues and works as antagonist in other tissues to get the maximum benefit of estrogen (in bone, brain and liver) by reducing its negative proliferative effect (in breast). First generation : tamoksifen, toremifen Second generation : raloksifen Pharmacodynamics : agonist estrogen (in bone and endometrium) and antagonist estrogen in breast. Clinical uses : adjuvant therapy for breast cancer. Selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) : Tamoksifen Pharmacodynamics : agonist estrogen (in bone, plasma lipid, endothelium) and antagonist estrogen (in breast ans uterus). Clinical uses : osteoporosis prevention in post- menopausal women. Selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) : Raloksifen Progestins The most important progestin in human : progesterone. Synthesized in the ovary (corpus luteum), testis and adrenal from circulating cholesterol. Large amounts are also synthesized and released by the placenta during pregnancy.
Pharmacokinetics Rapidly absorbed by any route Short half life : 5 minutes. Completely metabolized in one passage in liver quite ineffective if administered orally high-dose oral micronized preparats is synthesized. In the liver, metabolized as pregnanediol and conjugated with glucuronic acid pregnanediol glucuronide ( used as an index of progesterone secretion) Pharmacodynamics Endometrium maturation Participates in LH surge and secretory changes of endometrium increased viscosity of endocerviks secret prevent from pregnancy Metabolism Stimulates lipoprotein lipase activity fat deposition Increase basal insulin levels and insulin response to glucose Temperature-regulating center increases body temperature Depressant and hypnotic effects in brain
Clinical uses Post-menopausal hormonal therapy (hormonal replacement therapy / HRT) Contraception Dysfunctional uterine bleeding Threatened abortion Abortus habitualis Diagnostic uses as a test of estrogen secretion (hypothalamus hypophisis axis) 150 mg progesterone/day or MP 10 mg/day (5 7 days) will be followed by withdrawal bleeding in amenorheic patient only if estrogen is stimulated. Still in debate Adverse effect and contraindication Adverse effect Increased blood pressure Androgenic progestins reduce HDL level Breast cancer careful watch as HRT treament Contraindication Progesterone inhibitor : Mifepriston, Onapriston Potent antagonist of progesteron Clinical use : Termination of early pregnancy (<49 days) with the medical indication (ectopic pregnancy, incomplete abortus, massive bleeding) by eliminating the decidua and blastocyst. Major metabolism : liver; excretion : feses Adverse effect : vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, uteric pain, nausea, vomit and diarrhea.
