Clinical application of prostaglandins in obstetrics and gynecology
Abstract:
After a short discussion on the development of the prostaglandins, the application especially of F2 alpha and E2 in the field of obstetrics and gynecology were debated. Predominantly clinical data on the induction of abortion in the second trimester of pregnancy as well as the induction of labour at term are reviewed. The individual methods of application are discussed. Additionally, possible future areas of use, such as the regulation of menstruation and new prostaglandin derivates are discussed.
