This case of postmenopausal endometrioma following hormonal replacement therapy (HRT) demonstrates the often forgotten possibility of reactivation of endometriosis with HRT. The diagnosis of endometriosis should be considered in a postmenopausal woman who presents with pelvic pain and mass whilst on HRT.
First antenatal visit haematocrit values during the first and second trimesters were retrospectively collected from 546 nulliparas with singleton pregnancies. The results were analysed for correlation with development of pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) later in pregnancy. It was found that women with higher haematocrit values, especially over 0.40, had an increased risk of developing PIH. However, there appeared to be no absolute level of haematocrit which had sufficient discriminative value to be useful in clinical practice.
