The Effect of the Levonorgestrel-Releasing Intrauterine System on Myometrial Blood Flow in Patients With Heavy Menstrual Bleeding.

Background Abnormal uterine bleeding constitutes a vexing issue among female patients, substantially impacting their quality of life. Surgical interventions, particularly hysterectomy, contribute to the psychological, physical, and financial burden on families and, by extension, the healthcare system. Levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) represents a conservative management approach and emerges as a beneficial option for affected patients.

Aversion of surgical exploration in patients with complex ovarian cysts secondary to overt hypothyroidism: A series of three cases.

Long-standing, overt hypothyroidism-induced bilateral multiloculated ovarian cysts represent an infrequent occurrence. Our first case, presented with bilateral complex ovarian masses, exhibited overt hypothyroidism symptoms, including lethargy, weight gain and subfertility, prompting consideration for surgical intervention. Similarly, in the second case, a girl aged 11 years with stunting, delayed bone age and academic challenges was referred for surgical exploration due to bilateral complex ovarian masses.
