A study of premarin intravenous and its influence on blood loss during transurethral prostatectomy

In a double-blind comparative study conjugated equine oestrogens (USP) (Premarin Intravenous) and saline were administered intravenously to patients undergoing transurethral prostatectomy. This paper proves that the placebo group (saline) displays a tendency, as indicated by two statistical tests, towards a significant increase in the red blood cells lost in the 24-hours after the operation. The Premarin Intravenous group showed no such tendency.
