The Next Generation of Oral Contraception: Advances in Estrogens

Article Type
Changed
Thu, 06/03/2021 - 15:24

Free CME Credit

This article traces the evolution of estrogen in contraception, with a special focus on the concept of native estrogen with specific actions in tissues, or NEST. Research surrounding estetrols (E4), receptor binding, and target interactions demonstrate that E4 has high selectivity for the estrogen receptors. Clinical trial data are presented that support the view that E4 — a high NEST activity estrogen — is a safe and effective estrogen for use in combined oral contraceptives. This premise was borne out with the approval of an estetrol/drosperinone combined oral contraceptive by the US Food and Drug Administration in April 2021.

Up-to-Date Diagnosis and Management of IBS and Chronic Constipation in Primary Care

Article Type
Changed
Mon, 02/01/2021 - 14:27

Abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, and constipation are common complaints encountered in primary care clinics, and usually suggest problems affecting the lower half of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The most common diagnoses for patients with these symptoms, when chronic in nature, are irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and chronic constipation, with an estimated pooled community prevalence of 11.2% and 14%, respectively. IBS and chronic constipation represent a substantial burden to patients and society in terms of daily symptoms, quality of life (QoL), work productivity, and health care costs. Indeed, patients experience chronic, disruptive symptoms for many years prior to seeking health care and typically report lengthy and complex treatment histories.

Evolving Strategies in the Diagnosis and Management of Hemolytic Disease of the Fetus and Newborn

Article Type
Changed
Fri, 03/26/2021 - 16:56

Free CME Credit 

Hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) is a rare condition with an estimated 3 to 80 cases per 100,000 persons annually in the United States. Nonetheless, the complexity and increased risk for adverse outcomes in such cases requires more targeted approaches to HDFN that minimize or negate the risks associated with intrauterine transfusion.
This article focuses on the pathophysiology underlying fetal/newborn allo- and autoimmune diseases, especially HDFN and the current/evolving diagnostic and treatment regimens for HDFN.

Expanding Contraceptive Choices for Women: The Vaginal pH Modulator

Read Now. 

Vaginal pH modulators (VPMs) add a new class of contraception that is now available in the United States. This method is nonhormonal, woman-controlled, and coitally dependent—and has the potential to increase overall contraceptive use and potentially reduce unintended pregnancy rates.

This CME supplement to OBG Management focuses on VPMs, their attributes, and the methodology surrounding the determination of contraceptive effectiveness.
