    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Immunology
    • Endocrinology

    Background:

    • Autoimmune progesterone dermatitis is a rare condition.
    • Characterized by cyclical skin eruptions.
    • Often linked to hormonal fluctuations.

    Observation:

    • Polymorphous skin lesions including urticaria, erythema multiforme, and dyshidrosiform eruptions were observed.
    • Eruptions consistently recurred 5-10 days before menses and resolved post-menses.
    • Six of seven patients had prior exposure to artificial progestational hormones.

    Findings:

    • Intradermal skin testing confirmed progesterone hypersensitivity.
    • Artificial progestins are potentially implicated as triggers for autosensitivity.
    • Conjugated estrogen treatment led to remission in 5 out of 7 patients.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the role of progesterone in certain dermatological conditions.
    • Suggests a link between exogenous progestins and autoimmune responses.
    • Estrogen therapy may be an effective treatment for autoimmune progesterone dermatitis.
