[Functional research on carbohydrate metabolism in women with climacteric metropathy]

The study was carried out on 61 women with climacteric metropathy at mean age of 48,33 years. Histopathologic endometrial finding of the performed curettage showed predominating anovulatory or organic character of the bleeding. The mean values of oral glucose tolerance test in women of the whole group did not exceed the established reference values. However there was a reduced glucose tolerance as the values of the test were within range zone. This is an important fact in determining a model for hormonal prophylaxis and treatment.
