Experience in using a vitamin and mineral supplement to restore the menstrual cycle in patients with functional hyperprolactinemia
Objective. To present the authors’ own experience in using a Pregnotone vitamin and mineral supplement to restore the menstrual cycle in patients with functional hyperprolactinemia.Manukhina E.I., Ispas A.A.
Subjects and methods. Examinations were made in 135 reproductive-aged women with functional hyperprolactinemia and menstrual irregularities before and after a 3-month Pregnotone treatment cycle.
Results. After a month of Pregnotone intake, 80/135 (59.2%) followed up patients reported their general health improvements (in mood and sleep); the menstrual cycle was restored and became regular in 26/135 (19.2%) cases. After completing a full (3-month) Pregnotone treatment cycle, there was a considerable health improvement in 115/135 (85.2%) cases; the menstrual cycle was noted to be restored in 110/135 (81.5%) patients.
Conclusion. The balanced vitamin and mineral supplement Pregnotone has a positive effect on a woman’ general well-being (better mood and better sleep) and can be used to treat menstrual irregularities in patients with functional hyperprolactinemia. A substantial effect of Pregnotone should be expected after its 3-month treatment cycle.
