Answer: 4

Answer: CA-125 level measurements

Flashcard 3: In a post-menopausal woman with complex hyperplasia without atypia, management is done using _____

Answer: progesterone rx

Flashcard 4: Leiomyomas (fibroids) increase with _____ (increased estrogen) and decrease with menopause (decreased estrogen)

Answer: pregnancy

Flashcard 5: In a post-menopausal woman with simple hyperplasia without atypia, management is done using _____

Answer: Progestogens (e.g., Medroxyprogesterone acetate or LNG-IUS)

Extra: The risk of progression to malignancy in endometrial hyperplasia without atypia is low (approximately 1–3%). **Management of Hyperplasia without atypia:** - **Standard treatment:** Progestogens (Oral Medroxyprogesterone acetate or Levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system). Progestogens induce regression of the hyperplasia. - **Alternative:** Observation with repeat biopsy (every 6 months) may be considered in asymptomatic women if reversible risk factors (e.g., obesity, HRT) are addressed. **Risk of Malignant Progression (Classic stats):** - Simple without atypia: 1% - Complex without atypia: 3% - Simple with atypia: 8% - Complex with atypia: 29% *Note: In post-menopausal women with **atypical** hyperplasia, the recommended management is total hysterectomy due to the high risk of concurrent or future malignancy.*
