Method of modifying ovarian hormone-regulated AT1 receptor activity as treatment of incapacitating symptom(s) of P.M.S.

摘要

The method of treatment moderating, blocking and/or eliminating premenstrual syndrome embodies the intermittent administering of an AT1 antagonist to a female having menstrual cycles characterized predominately by during substantially the luteal phase inclusive of at least one and frequently by two or more affective and/or autonomic and/or somatic symptoms of substantially incapacitating severity(ies) proximately substantially prior to menses of a menstrual cycle. Losartan is an example of an AT1 inhibitor and is administered either orally or parenterally continuously to a female during her menstrual cycle's luteal phase.
