Influence of rifampicin treatment on the metabolic fate of [4-14C] mestranol in women.

[4-14C] Mestranol was administered to 2 rifampicin treated and to 3 untreated hysterectomised women with normal liver functions. The urinary excretions of mestranol, ethynylestradiol, 2-hydroxy-ethynylestradiol and of the total radioactivity were measured within the following 5 days. After this period the total urinary excretion of radioactivity amounted to approx. 43% (38%-50%) of the administered dose and no difference was found for the rifampicin treated and untreated women. Moreover, in the urines of both of these groups the same amounts of radioactive mestranol (1.1%-6.3% of the urinary radioactivity) and 2-hydroxy-ethynylestradiol (0.9%-3.9% of the urinary radioactivity) were measured. In contrast, the urinary excretion of ethynyl-estradiol was definitely lower in the rifampicin treated women (3.5% and 4.9% of the urinary radioactivity) as compared to the control group (15%-23%).

[Abdominal pregnancy: hormon concentrations during the postpartal period with placenta remaining intra-abdominal (author's transl)].

It is reported of an abdominal pregnancy at term. The placenta was left in situ because of the high risk of intraabdominal bleedings. Thereby it was possible to measure hormon concentrations of the fetoplacental unit without the fetal compartment. Within 10 days after delivery we determined the plasma levels of estradiol-17 beta, estriol, progesterone, HCS, alpha1fetoprotein, and the excretion of the total estrogens in the urines. There was near the same decrease of hormon concentrations in the post partal time comparable with that of a normal pregnancy. Only the HCS concentrations didn't change in the first 9 days after delivery.
