Gyn., 1928, No. 11)ZabolotskayaE.info@eco-vector.com150719282477047041701202217012022Copyright © 1928, Eco-Vector1928<p>The author suggests using diuretics for uterine bleeding on the following grounds: it is known from numerous experiments on patients with diabetes insipidus that pituitaryrin reduces diuresis; the posterior pituitary gland, which is the site of pituitaryrin production, plays an important role in regulating the water content in the body - its task is to protect the body from too much water loss; if a large amount of water is extracted from the body, the pituitary gland begins to produce pituitrin intensively to inhibit further water withdrawal.</p>Kazan Medical archiveКазанский медицинский архив
