Methods are described for differentiating stem and post-natal cells into sex hormone-producing cells that can be administered to a patient autologously or allogeneically in order to maintain in balance, or rebalance, their hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis.

The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for treating estrogen-dependent disorders, such as disorders of the female reproductive system, including uterine fibroids and endometriosis, among others. Compounds described herein that may be used to treat such indications include gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists. Suitable GnRH antagonists useful in conjunction with the compositions and methods described herein include thieno[3,4d]pyrimidine derivatives, such as 3-[2-fluoro-5-(2,3-difluoro-6-methoxybenzyloxy)4-methoxyphenyl]-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrothieno[3,4d]pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid and the choline salt thereof, among others. Using the compositions and methods described herein, GnRH antagonists may be periodically administered to a patient, such as one or more times per day, week, or month, over the course of an extended treatment period, such as a treatment period having a duration of multiple years. Advantageously, using the compositions and methods of the present disclosure, the GnRH antagonist may be administered to a patient over a lengthy treatment period without inducing adverse side effects, such as a loss in bone mineral density, which is otherwise known to be a risk associated with GnRH antagonism.

The present invention relates to a composition which is for preventing and ameliorating or treating premenstrual syndrome symptoms, and includes: (a) a Chrysanthemum zawadskii extract; (b) a mixture of the Chrysanthemum zawadskii extract and a malt extract; or (c) a mixture of the Chrysanthemum zawadskii extract, the malt extract, and an aloe extract. Specifically, the present compositions effectively inhibit the secretion of prolactin from pituitary cells, which is a phenomenon that appears during premenstrual syndrome, thereby increasing the secretion of progesterone, which is reduced during the luteal phase of women, and can thus be advantageously used as a composition for preventing and ameliorating or treating women's premenstrual syndrome.

The present invention relates to monolithic intravaginal rings comprising progesterone, methods of making, and uses thereof. The intravaginal rings comprise progesterone, a polysiloxane elastomer, and a pharmaceutically acceptable hydrocarbon or glycerol esters of a fatty acid.

The present invention relates to compounds and their uses, in particular, compounds in the form of prodrugs that promote transport of a pharmaceutical agent to the lymphatic system and subsequently enhance release of the parent drug.

This invention pertains to a compound and a composition for use in the treatment of premenstrual syndrome and/or premenstrual dysphoric disorder.

The present disclosure relates to the use of GnRH receptor antagonists for the treatment of endometriosis, uterine fibroids, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), or adenomyosis. In particular, the present disclosure describes methods for treating such gynecological disorders, where the methods involve administration of elagolix and may further involve co-administration of a CYP2B6 substrate (e.g., bupropion) or a CYP2C19 substrate (e.g., omeprazole) or a CYP3A4 substrate (e.g., ethinyl estradiol and/or levonorgestrel).

The present invention provides novel pharmaceutical compositions comprising -(4-Chloro-2-(morpholin-4-yl)thiazol-5-yl)-7-(1-ethylpropyl)-2,5-dimethylpyrazolo(1,5-a)pyrimidine and methods of using the same for the treatment of Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).
