Age of menarche, fertility, number of labours, body weight, physical and mental activity, and incidence of stress in everyday life were evaluated in 72 women with uterine myomas, aged 34-54 years. The control group consisted of 45 healthy women at similar age. It was demonstrated that overweight (p < 0.05, p < 0.001 in most groups studied) in combination with low physical activity and higher mental (stress producing) was a risk factor in the aetiology and pathogenesis of this disease. Fertility and number of labours as well as the age of menarche were unchanged (p > 0.05).

Background: Early menarche is associated with both physical and psychosocial problems. Based on psychological and physical health considerations, for girls with early menarche, some parents and physicians may elect to use gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa) to delay menstruation. This study aimed to explore the effects of GnRHa treatment on the final height of girls with early menarche and build the models to predict the final adult height (FAH).

Although these hormones cross the blood-retinal barrier and bind to intraocular receptors, their effects remain unclear. We present the first review to date on associations between posterior pole structures-specifically the macula, choroid, and optic disc-and both the menstrual cycle and post-menopausal period, utilising multimodal imaging techniques in healthy adult non-pregnant women.
