    TRATAMIENTO DE REEMPLAZO HORMONAL ENFOCADO EN LAS OPCIONES DE FERTILIDAD EN MUJERES CON SÍNDROME DE TURNER

    Introduction: Hormone replacement therapy in women with Turner Syndrome, focusing on estrogen, progesterone, and gonadotropins such as FSH and LH, is critical for addressing infertility associated with this genetic condition. This study reviews existing literature to assess the efficacy of these drugs in improving ovarian function and fertility options. Objective: To analyze and synthesize current literature on hormone replacement treatment options and their effectiveness in enhancing fertility in women with TS. Methodology: A literature review was conducted on medical platforms such as PubMed and MEDLINE, using keywords such as "Turner Syndrome", "Hormone Replacement Therapy", and "Fertility". Studies from the last 5 years, in both English and Spanish, focused on hormonal treatments and fertility, were included. Results: Reviewed studies indicate that drugs like estrogen and progesterone in hormone replacement therapy can improve ovarian function in women with TS. Some cases reported success using FSH and LH to stimulate ovulation. However, variability in responses and potential side effects require careful consideration. Conclusions: Treatment with estrogen, progesterone, FSH, and LH offers possibilities for fertility improvement in TS, but must be personalized and rigorously monitored to optimize outcomes and minimize risks.

    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Medicina, 2024-06-07) Almeida Paredes, Sheyla Pamela; Jurado Melo, Verónica Cristina
    Testicular torsion (TT) is a pediatric and urologic emergency with an incidence of 4.5 per 100,000 men per year. This condition can occur at any age; however, it is more common in young males, with a bimodal incidence in the pediatric population, during the first year of life, and between 13 and 16 years of age. Despite the existence of treatments for TT, it has been found that this condition leaves certain sequelae in the testicles; The objective of this research was to analyze the incidence of TT on human reproductive activity. The databases used were PubMed, Medline, Google Scholar and ScienceDirect; To choose the data, the language English and Spanish was and the availability of the full text were taken into account. Studies conducted in humans as well as in model animals were analysed. Finally, it was concluded that after detortion, patients recover normal endocrine function, germ cell DNA is free from damage, and sperm volume and quality improve in the long term.
