Obravnava žensk v obdobju predmenopavze, ob menopavzi in kasneje se je v novem tisočletju pomembno spremenila. Randomizirane klinične raziskave so bistveno omejile indikacije za uvedbo hormonskega ...zdravljenja (HZ) in s tem menopavzno medicino postavile pred velik izziv. Na srečo so najnovejša dognanja potrdila, da je ob pravilni uporabi in izbiri HZ korist še vedno bistveno večja od tveganja. Zato smo pripravili posodobljena stališča o menopavzni medicini, ki so v skladu z aktualnimi mednarodnimi priporočili in prilagojena posebnostim slovenskega prostora.
The objective of the study was to determine the course and outcomes of pregnancy and childbirth in adolescents compared to women aged 20-24 years in Slovenia.
In the retrospective study, the course ...of pregnancy and labour and the perinatal outcome of newborns in primiparous adolescents aged ≤19 years (study group) have been compared to the control group of primiparous women aged 20-24 years. The study group was further divided into a study subgroup of adolescents aged ≤17 years. Data were retrieved from the National Perinatal Information System in Slovenia for the period 2008-2012. Altogether, 13,663 women and their newborns were included.
Adolescent pregnancy was associated with increased rates of unknown estimated date of delivery, preterm labour, low birth weight newborns, small for gestational age newborns and low gestational weight gain. Spontaneous labour was more common in adolescents, while emergency and elective Caesarean sections were less common than in women aged 20-24 years. In addition, pregnancy in adolescents aged ≤17 years was associated with increased rate of maternal anaemia and labour without complications. Higher rates of smoking, lower rates of parenting school attendance, lower rates of pregnancy check-ups and screening tests in pregnancy such as nuchal translucency in adolescents were found.
The results of the study show that adolescent pregnancy is related to higher health risks for pregnant adolescents and their newborns. In addition, adolescents are subject to poorer prenatal care comparing to older women.

Journal Article
In the manuscript the Slovenian guidelines for combined hormonal contraceptive use, based on WHO, FSRH and CDC guidelines are presented they were approved in January 2012.
Objectives: In Slovenia, first-trimester abortion is performed at the woman's request, either surgically under general anaesthesia or medically with mifepristone and misoprostol, in a public ...hospital. Our study aimed to evaluate pre-abortion counselling and to reveal differences in acceptability and satisfaction with the two abortion methods.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out at Ljubljana University Medical Centre between January and June 2015. Women requesting termination of a pregnancy up to 10 weeks' gestation voluntarily completed an anonymous questionnaire after the procedure and were divided into a surgical and a medical abortion group.
Results: Of the 266 women who were invited to take part, 229 accepted; 16.6% chose a surgical abortion, 83.4% a medical abortion. The most frequent reason cited for requesting an abortion was economic/housing problems. Most women who chose a surgical abortion did so because it was faster, whereas most women who chose a medical abortion did so on the advice of a primary care gynaecologist. Women choosing a surgical abortion had more previous pregnancies and presented with a higher gestational age pregnancy. The choice of method was not related to the woman's age. There were no differences in acceptability of the two procedures. Pain during the procedure was, however, more severe in the medical abortion group (p = .026), along with bleeding, nausea and chills; there were no differences in severity of vomiting, diarrhoea, dizziness or headache between the groups. Women in the surgical abortion group reported higher satisfaction with the method (p < .001). The study revealed a low frequency of pre-abortion contraceptive counselling.
Conclusion: The most common reason given for choosing a surgical abortion was the speed of the procedure; for a medical abortion, it was on the advice of a primary care gynaecologist. Satisfaction was higher with the surgical abortion method. There were no differences in general acceptability of the methods.

Background: We reviewed the literature comparing the pathological characteristics of singleton births conceived after assisted reproductive technology (ART) with those after spontaneous conception. ...Methods: We reviewed PubMed, EMBASE, Ovid MEDLINE, Google Scopus, Scholar, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and the Web of Science for the previous 10 years, up to November 2022. Results: Four eligible studies included 3445 placentas, 806 after ART (IVF/ICSI). Placentas after ART differed in frequency of retroplacental and marginal hematomas (p = 0.04), increased thickness (p = 0.02), higher overall occurrences of vascular and anatomical pathology (p < 0.001) and more frequent marginal (p = 0.001) and membranous (p = 0.02) umbilical cord insertion than placentas from non-ART pregnancies. Conclusion: Further research is needed to determine the extent to which these placental changes in ART pregnancies alter its function and pregnancy outcome.
