摘要:
Disclosed is a pharmaceutical composition for oral delivery. The composition includes about 1-2 mg mammalian estrogen and about 25-100 mg phytoestrogen. Compositions of the type described above are utilized, for example, in a therapeutic regimen designed to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease and osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. This method comprises the oral administration of a composition comprising a mixture of estrogen and phytoestrogen, the dosages of mammalian estrogen and phytoestrogen being about 1-2 mg, about 25-100 mg, respectively.

Methods of using phytoestrogens, in particular, isoflavones in the prevention and treatment of endometriosis and related disease conditions in females. One method comprises administering a therapeutically effective dosage of a phytoestrogen to females with endometriosis, females having symptoms related to endometriosis, or to females at risk of developing or suffering recurrence of endometriosis. In another method, at least one phytoestrogen may be administered singly or in combination with at least one hormonal therapeutic agent such as GnRH analogs, androgens, progestins, estrogens or any combination thereof. The therapeutically effective dosage of the phytoestrogen or the combination therapeutic ranges between about 25 and about 250 mg/day.

The composition comprises a combination of at least one phytoestrogen and at least one acetylcholinesterase inhibitor such as Huperzine A, or any derivative, analog, metabolite or combination thereof. The composition may further include at least one mammalian estrogen. The method of the invention comprises the co-administration of at least one phytoestrogen and at least one acetylcholinesterase inhibitor in a therapeutically effective amount. Additionally, a mammalian estrogen may be co-administered.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of using 17.alpha.-dihydroequilenin and metabolic conjugates thereof to prevent and reduce atherogenesis in males and females without causing endometrial proliferation in females and without producing feminizing changes in males. 17.alpha.-dihydroequilenin was evaluated for its effects on plasma lipid and lipoprotein, glucose, insulin concentrations, coronary artery vasomotor function, and reproductive organ and mammary gland proliferation in atherosclerotic mammals. 17.alpha.-dihydroequilenin was found to prevent endothelium-dependent vasoconstriction in males (p
