“…Women report more depression than men (by a factor of 2:1), particularly associated with their reproductive life span [ 1 ]. In fact, the onset or exacerbation of depressive symptoms has been associated to perimenopause [ 2 , 3 ].…”

The use of a combined therapy with low doses of estrogens plus antidepressants to treat depression associated to perimenopause could be advantageous. However the use of these combinations is controversial due to several factors, including the time of intervention in relation to menopause onset. This paper analyzes whether time post-OVX influences the antidepressant-like action of a combination of ethynyl-estradiol (EE2) and citalopram (CIT) in the forced swim test (FST). Middle-aged (15 months old) female Wistar rats were ovariectomized and after one or three weeks treated with EE2 (1.25, 2.5 or 5.0 µg/rat, s.c.; −48 h) or CIT (1.25, 2.5, 5.0 or 10 mg/kg, i.p./3 injections in 24 h) and tested in the FST. In a second experiment, after one or three weeks of OVX, rats received a combination of an ineffective dose of EE2 (1.25 µg/rat, s.c., −48 h) plus CIT (2.5 mg/kg, i.p./3 injections in 24 h) and subjected to the FST. Finally, the uteri were removed and weighted to obtain an index of the peripheral effects of EE2 administration. EE2 (2.5 or 5.0 µg/rat) reduced immobility after one but not three weeks of OVX. In contrast, no CIT dose reduced immobility at one or three weeks after OVX. When EE2 (1.25 µg/rat) was combined with CIT (2.5 mg/kg) an antidepressant-like effect was observed at one but not three weeks post-OVX. The weight of the uteri augmented when EE2 was administrated three weeks after OVX. The data suggest that the time post-OVX is a crucial factor that contributes to observe the antidepressant-like effect of EE2 alone or in combination with CIT.

“…In this sense, it is stated as the most frequent psychiatric comorbidities: anxiety disorders (social phobia, simple phobia and post-traumatic stress disorder) and mood disorders (depression and mania) [15,16]. Similarly, other studies of comorbidities found that women who are alcohol users have anxiety disorders and depression as the most frequent psychiatric diagnoses [17][18].…”

Background: The consumption of psychoactive substances has been historically associated to the male population but, there is evidence that the harm caused by these substances are more intense in women, including psychiatric disorders. Objective:To analyze the association between depressive symptoms and alcohol and drugs in the female universe.Method: This is a descriptive, exploratory and cross-sectional study with a sample of 23 women. Data collection was conducted in August and September 2015, in the Basic Health Units of the municipality of Picos -PI. The project was approved by the Research Ethics Committee.Results: Predominant age group of 20 to 39 years, of which 39.1% were married and 56.5% are in work activities. We found an association between depressive symptoms and alcohol use (p = 0.031) and other drugs (p = 0.042) and showed that women with depressive symptoms exhibited a pattern of heavier alcohol consumption (mean = 9.36 points).

“…Sin embargo, debido a la infiltración de factores psicosociales de la cultura, puede suceder que las mujeres tiendan a puntuar más alto en cuestiones de externalización de síntomas de malestar emocional (Berenzon, Lara, Robles, & Medina-Mora, 2013). Por ejemplo, se ha visto que las mujeres informan experimentar prevalencias más altas de problemas de salud mental con síntomas más graves y discapacitantes (Freeman & Freeman, 2013), y en población mexicana, la sintomatología y los trastornos depresivos son más prevalentes en adolescentes (Benjet et al, 2009) y mujeres adultas (Fleiz-Bautista et al, 2012). Por el contrario, los hombres tienden a mostrar patrones internalizados de expresión emocional, siendo esta inhibida o restrictiva, lo que implica que sus emociones no son reconocidas o están enmascaradas por otras más aceptables por la condición de género (Jansz, 2000).…”

Este trabajo verifica la estructura dimensional del Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation-Outcome Measure (CORE-OM; Evans et al., 2000) mediante un estudio cuantitativo-transversal en una muestra de 466 estudiantes universitarios elegidos por muestreo de conveniencia; 181 de 18 a 30 años que solicitaron atención psicológica, y 285 de 17 a 29 años que no estaban en búsqueda de atención. A través de los análisis factoriales exploratorio y confirmatorio se identificaron tres dimensiones para el instrumento con adecuados niveles de consistencia interna, lo cual replica sustancialmente los resultados previos de la versión original. Se hallaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre varones y mujeres y entre la población consultante y no consultante. Finalmente, se comprobó si existía funcionamiento diferencial del ítem por sexo y por población consultante. Cinco reactivos se hallaron en la primera categoría y tres en la segunda. La estructura interna del CORE-OM explora un amplio conjunto de síntomas de malestar psicológico y resulta útil para su evaluación en jóvenes universitarios.
