[Functional activity of the hypophysis and gonads in women with hypertension].

An attempt is made to demonstrate a relationship between changes in arterial blood pressure and sex steroids, gonadotrophins and mineralocorticoids in 30- to 55-year-old females with essential hypertension, employed in textile industry in Cheboksary. Climacteric and menopausal patterns of sex steroid and gonadotrophin secretion are discussed. A definite relationship between essential hypertension, elevated estradiol and testosterone and lowered gonadotrophins is demonstrated. It is suggested that climacteric and menopausal blood pressure disorders may be related to changes in gonadal and adrenal activity.
