Potential synergism between ulipristal acetate and vitamin D3 in uterine fibroid pharmacotherapy - 2 case studies.
Gynecological Endocrinology 2019 January 12
This is a preliminary report of the first cases of successful simultaneous use of ulipristal acetate (UPA) and vitamin D3 in uterine fibroid (UF) oral treatment in humans. We present two cases of 37- and 49-year-old females with clinically symptomatic UFs and vitamin D deficiency. Both patients were treated with a standard 3 months of UPA scheme (5 mg daily) with the additional use of vitamin D3 (7000 IU daily orally). In the 37-year-old female all the symptoms (pain, pressure, frequent urination) decreased, total tumor volume after the treatment changed by 47.8%. In the 49-year-old female most symptoms perished, total tumor volume was reduced by 63.3%. UPA and vitamin D share synergistic anti-fibroid properties. Further studies are necessary to show the exact effect of UPA and vitamin D as co-drugs.
