Abstract

The present research includes a clinical study of estrogen hormone and ferritin protein, cholesterol, and some levels of mineral, such as calcium and phosphorus in the serum of women who have undergone uterine removal. The results showed a significant decrease in the estrogen hormone level of serum for women who have undergone uterine removal (50.3Pg∕ml), in comparison with healthy women (138.65Pg∕ml) at a probability level of P≤0.05. The study also showed a significant increase of ferritin protein level of women who have undergone uterine removal (64.35mg∕dl) when compared with healthy women (52.10mg∕dl) at probability level of P≤0.05, with a significant increase in the cholesterol level in serum of women who have undergone uterine removal (7.643mmol∕L), in comparison with healthy women (4.525mmol∕L) at a probability level of P≤0.05. The investigation also discussed the effect of some minerals, like calcium and phosphorous on the serum of women who have undergone uterine removal, and it found significant decrease in calcium level of women who have undergone uterine removal while compared with healthy women (1.86), (2.41) mmol ∕ L respectively at probability level (P≤0.05), while present slight increase in phosphorous level compared with healthy women(3.95), (3.731) mmol∕ L respectively.

Highlights

  • Hysterectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes (Singh et al, 2015)

  • Cholesterol is a waxy fat-like substance that is found in all the cells of the human body

  • The aim of this study is to find out effect of Estrogen hormone, ferritin, cholesterol, calcium and Phosphorus on women who have undergone uterine removal, as well as to know the effect of the removal period on the abovementioned parameters

Summary

Introduction

Hysterectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes (Singh et al, 2015). Estrogen is one of the sexual hormones that is produced in the ovaries, and promotes the development and maintenance of female characteristics in the human body (BaldaçaraI and Silva, 2017). It plays an essential role in the growth and development of female secondary sexual characteristics, such as breasts, pubic and armpit hair in addition to the regulation of the menstrual cycle and the reproductive system. Phosphorus is essential to all forms of life, because it is a key element in many physiological and biochemical processes It can be found in every cell present in all living organisms. The aim of this study is to find out effect of Estrogen hormone, ferritin, cholesterol, calcium and Phosphorus on women who have undergone uterine removal, as well as to know the effect of the removal period on the abovementioned parameters
