[New sequential therapy in the premenopause (author's transl)]

A report about the treatment of 85 women in the premenopause during 387 cycles is given. The treatment consisted in sequential therapy in form of conjugated Estrogens (Presomen) and a new synthetic Gestagen, which was given in three different modifications: from the fifth to the 24-th day of the cycle 1,25 mg Presomen a day, additionally on the last five, seven or ten days, during each period 6 respectively 5 mg Gestagen a day. It proved that both, the disfunctional haemorrhages as well as the climacteric syndrome, were favourably influenced. The mode 10+10, that is, 10 days Estrogens alone + 10 days combined with ;estagen, proved best. A sufficiently secure contraception is not guaranteed. This can be recognized by the occurence of biphasic basal temperature curves.
