Introduction Neuro-humoral system of woman is aimed for
keeping uterus’ muscle relaxed during pregnancy. It’s possible because of increasing of blood levels of steroid hormone pregesterone which is “pregnancy pretector”
![Page 4: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Both estrogens and proges-terone are increased during pregnancy but proges-terone prevails
![Page 5: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Influence of steroid hormones
Progesterone performs its acton on uterus only in case estrogenes are synthesised enough by corpus luteum and placenta
In other case, progesterone looses its relaxing action on uterus’ muscle
![Page 6: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Progesterone
Increases level of adenosinmonophosphate (AMP) which ties Са2+ ions and blocks actine-myosine contractions
![Page 7: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Progesterone Increases membrane potential of myocyte and
particularly blocks impulses between myocytes Myometrium becomes insensitive to irritatons
myometrium

Progesterone
Since placenta is formed, progesterone is synthesized by it.
Consequently, placental site is more relaxed than the rest of myometrium
![Page 9: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Progesterone
Keeps its relaxing action even in case of retention of the part of the placenta inside of the uterus in puerperium.
It can provoke sub-involution of uterus and post-partum bleeding

Influence of steroid hormones
Before labor level of progesterone decreases and estrogenes are rised
Estrogenes take out myometrium block
![Page 11: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Influence of steroid hormones
Membranes of myocytes become sensitive to:
oxitocine, prostaglandines, catheholamines , serotonine.
![Page 12: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Mechanism of myometrium contractions
Depolarization of membtanesReleasing of Ca2+ Interaction of calcium ions with contractive
proteins.
![Page 13: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Mechanism of myometrium contractions
Myometrium has alpha and beta-adrenoreceptors.
Stimulation of alpha-receptors by catheholamines causes uterus contraction
Stimulation of beta-receptors by catheholamines causes uterus relaxation
![Page 14: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Mechanism of myometrium contractions
Uterus body contains alpha and beta catheholamines receptors
Lower segment contains choline and serotonine receptors Cervix contains chemo-, baro- and
mechanoreceptors
![Page 15: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Uterotonics and tocolytics drugs
Uterotonics increase uterine contractions (oxytocine, prostaglandines, serotonine, kinines, cathecholamines).
Tocolytics decrease uterine contracions (spasmolytics, beta-receptor-stimulating medications, anti-oxytocin drugs).
![Page 16: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Oxitocine
It’s a hormone of supra-optic and para-ventricular nuclei of hypothalamus
Transported to pituitary by axons Performs its influence on membranous level
![Page 17: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Prostaglandines
Play very big role in preparing to labor and delivery onset.
“Tissue hormones” are made from fatty (lipid) acides
![Page 18: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Prostaglandines
Nowadays synthetic analogues of E2 and F2-alpha prostaglantines are popular because of their high activity
E2 medications (dinoprostone, prepidil-gel, 1 mg) prepare cervix for labor (makes it “ripe”)
F2-alpha medications (dinoprost, enzaprost, i.v. 5 mg/ml) cause regular uterine contractions
![Page 19: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Prostaglandines
Their administration causes termination of pregnancy in any term
![Page 20: Pharmacotherapy in obstetrics](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/55502bb4b4c9058f2f8b4b55/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Key points of hormonal therapy of mascarriage
Hormonal medications should be strictly indicated;
Risk/benefit should be assessed thoroughly;
Individual dosage;Prescription after 8 weeks of pregnancy
should be preferred.
