| Abstract | Hysteroscopic adhesiolysis has become the preferred option for management of intrauterine adhesions (IUA). Use of estrogen as perioperative adjuvant therapy has been suggested for preventing recurrent adhesions. The primary objective of this article was to review the literature for evidence of the efficacy of estrogen therapy in the management of IUA. All eligible studies were identified using computerized databases (PubMed, Scopus. and Web of Science) from their earliest publication date to July 2013. Additional relevant articles were identified from citations in these publications. Twenty-six studies were identified that reported use of hormone therapy as ancillary treatment after adhesiolysis. Of these studies, 19 used at least one of the following methods: intrauterine device, Foley catheter, hyaluronic acid gel, or amnion graft, in addition to hormone therapy as ancillary treatment. In 7 studies, hormone therapy was used as a single ancillary treatment. In 2 studies, no adjunctive therapy was used after adhesiolysis. Meta-analysis could not be performed because of the differences in treatment methods in these articles. There was a wide range of reported menstrual and fertility outcomes. Better menstrual and fertility outcomes were associated with use of estrogen in combination with other methods of ancillary treatment. At present, hormone therapy, in particular estrogen therapy, is beneficial in patients with IUA, regardless of stage of adhesions. However, estrogen therapy needs to be combined with ancillary treatment to obtain maximal outcomes, in particular in patients with moderate to severe IUA. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
