Background: Perimenopausal onset depression (PO-MDD) is a common cause of distress and functional impairment, though efforts to describe its clinical symptomatology have been limited. We aimed to characterize affective and anxiety symptoms associated with PO-MDD, and to identify clinical correlates of distress, including anxiety, temperament and climacteric symptoms.
Methods: Baseline data from unmedicated women, ages 44-55, with PO-MDD (n = 49) and without PO-MDD (controls; n = 37) in the late-perimenopause (STRAW -1 criteria) recruited for two studies examining estrogen's effect on brain activation were included.

Objective: Insomnia is a prevalent symptom among perimenopausal women, mainly attributed to estrogen-progesterone imbalance and neuropsychiatric factors, significantly impacting their quality of life. This article seeks to systematically evaluate the efficacy of integrated acupuncture-pharmacotherapy (AP) in treating perimenopausal insomnia (PMI), offering new insights for the management of insomnia in women.
Methods: Searches were conducted in 8 databases: PubMed, Web of Science (WOS), Cochrane Library, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Biology Medicine Disc (CBM), Wanfang Academic Journal Full-text Database (Wanfang), and Chongqing VIP Database (CQVIP).

Objectives: We aimed to examine patterns of diagnostic evaluations for abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) in a national sample of emergency department (ED) visits and identify potential racial and ethnic differences.
Methods: Using the 2014-2021 National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey data, we identified 1,049 (unweighted; 7,900,653 weighted) women age ≥18 years without previous cancer diagnosis who visited EDs for non-pregnancy-related AUB. The primary outcomes were whether an ultrasound was provided/ordered and whether referral/follow-up consultation was recommended.
