“…The vascular indices, including VI, FI and VFI, all decrease significantly in the order of premenopause, perimenopause, and then postmenopause. However, this situation is reversed after 3 months of continuousecombined hormone replacement therapy [9]. All 3D power Doppler indices of ovarian stromal flow show a significant increase after treatment.…”

KEY WORDSovary, three-dimensional ultrasonography Three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound is an easy, important and noninvasive method for the differential diagnosis of ovarian disease in the clinical practice of obstetrics and gynecology. With advances in ultrasonographic technology, the application of higher-frequency scanning probes can evaluate the ovary in the analysis of morphological anatomy and in volume measurement, and is highly reproducible. The potential of power Doppler ultrasound with vascular indices that can further depict and quantify the microcirculation of the ovary has been extensively explored. The aim of this review is to report the present status and the recent development of 3D ultrasonography in the evaluation of the ovary. In conclusion, 3D ultrasound examination may help us to investigate the functional and potential roles of ultrasonography in clinical practice concerned with the ovary. Furthermore, 3D ultrasound may provide more substantial assistance in the differential diagnosis of various physiological or pathological conditions of the ovary. ª

“…The clinical and economic burden associated with diabetes mellitus and its management remains an enduring challenge to the healthcare community [ 1 ]. It is well known that menopause status affects estrogen level [ 2 ] which plays an important role in regulating glucose homeostasis [ 3 , 4 ] and fat metabolism [ 5 , 6 ]. In menopause, a decrease in estrogen level caused by the depletion of ovarian function results in an increase in abdominal fat [ 7 ].…”

IntroductionType 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most common problem in postmenopausal women. This study aimed to find out the prevalence of T2DM and its risk factors in postmenopausal women. MethodsThe study is a population-based cross-sectional study. Anthropometric measurements, blood pressure, and biochemical measurements of 2295 postmenopausal women up to the age of 55 years were taken following face-to-face interviews. Odds ratio was used to find out the role of risk factors associated with T2DM. ResultsPrevalence of T2DM was reported to be 15.51%. Significant contribution of waist circumference (WC) followed by body mass index (BMI), total cholesterol (TC), and triglycerides (p<0.05) was noted in increasing the risk of T2DM. No association was found between T2DM and hypertension (p>0.05). ConclusionA high prevalence of T2DM was reported in postmenopausal women. Higher levels of BMI, WC, TC, and triglycerides were found to be the major risk factors for T2DM.

“…Also, the sex hormones in females are contributed regulating the lipid metabolism (Nikolic et al, 2016) and the homeostasis of glucose ) Hao et al,2015). The epidemiological studies demonstrated the status of menopause was influenced by the levels of estrogen (Pan et al, 2003) and is related to osteoporosis, urogenital atrophy, sexual dysfunction, psychiatric disorders, metabolic disorders, cardiovascular disease ,and obesity (Lobo et al, 2014;Utian and Wood ,2013;Archer et al,2015). T2DM consider a multigenic metabolic disturbance that happens in the various age categories as a result of environmental and genetic factors (Malecki and Klupa,2005).…”

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) became the most prevalent health problem. Almost half of the world's people are ignorant that have diabetes. Menopause occurs as an important alteration in women through which take place the change in sex hormones, distribution in fat،s body, and metabolism, altogether which participate in the metabolism disease such as type 2 diabetes mellitus. Several studies have appeared the association between the TCF7L2 gene and different diseases like type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to detect the relation of the genetic variation polymorphism for the TCF7L2 gene (rs12255372 G/T) in Iraqi women menopausal with T2DM. The outcomes indicated the increased levels of biochemical characteristics including HbA1C, Cholesterol, Triglyceride, Prolactin, Progesterone, and Estrogen and the decreased level of HDL with significant differences (P<0.05). While there was no association between SNP for TCF7L2 gene (rs12255372 G/T) in patients with T2DM when compared with control (P>0.05). Although that there was a significant association between the biochemical characteristics and genotypes for this SNP. In conclusion that SNP (rs12255372G/T) for the TCF7L2 gene is not represented as a risk factor in Iraqi women of menopausal with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Quantification of ovarian stromal Doppler signals in postmenopausal women receiving hormone replacement therapy

Abstract: There was a significant increase in ovarian stromal flow indices after 3 months of treatment in the HRT group, but not in the controls. Monitoring the ovarian flow changes by three-dimensional power Doppler may be of clinical importance when HRT is given.
