Overview

Pharmacologic medical therapy is recommended in patients of amenorrhea associated with hypothalamic causes, pituitary causes, ovarian insufficiency, and chronic anovulation. Hormone replacement therapy such as estrogen and progesterone are the mainstay of treatment in patients of amenorrhea.

Androgen therapy

Recent studies have shown that androgen therapy in the dose of 50, 100, or 200 mg of micronized DHEA daily may increase bone mineral density (BMD), and prevent osteoporotic fracture. However, there is no established long term study to prove this effect.^[26]

Recombinant insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF-1)

Recombinant insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) (30 μg/kg−1 twice per day) along with OCP (0.035 mg ethinyl estradiol and 0.4 mg norethindrone) prevents fracture in hypothalamic amenorrhea (due to anorexia nervosa) by increasing bone mineral density (BMD).^[27]

Recombinant leptin

Recent studies have shown that administering recombinant leptin (0.08 mg/kg) subcutaneous daily for 2–3 months can lead to an increase in bone formation markers; and also decrease fracture risk through secondary prevention.^[29]

Bisphosphonates

In adolescent women with anorexia-induced amenorrhea, alendronate (10 mg) with calcium (1200 mg) and vitamin D (400 IU) for a year has been associated with significant improvement in bone loss. Therefore, bisphosphonates can be used as secondary prevention.^[30]
Doses of bisphosphonates for secondary prevention of functional amenorrhea are as follows:

Medicine	Dose	Treatment duration	Bone mineral density (BMD) site	Outcome
Etidronate	200 mg daily	3 months	Tibial midshaft	Non-significant increase in BMD in all sites^[31]
Calcium	600 mg daily
Vitamin D	1 μg daily
Risedronate	5 mg	9 months	Lumbar spine and femoral neck	Increase BMD in lumbar spine not in femoral neck^[32]
Calcium	1500 mg
Vitamin D	400 IU
Alendronate	10 mg	12 months	Lumbar spine and femoral neck	Non-significant increase in BMD in all sites^[30]
Calcium	1200 mg
Vitamin D	400 IU
