Two studies totaling 650 patients showed that at 12-16 months post UAE, between 94% [86] and 98% [6, 82] had normal menses, respectively. There has also been reported transient episodes of amenorrhea and menopausal symptoms [86]. 

In a retrospective study in 21 patients with refractory pemphigus who were treated with intravenous methylprednisolone for 3 consecutive days at monthly intervals plus intravenous cyclophosphamide 500 mg on day 2, the most common adverse reaction was transient lymphopenia or thrombocytopenia (12 of 21 patients) [26 ]. In two patients, this necessitated a dosage reduction of cyclophosphamide. Other reversible abnormalities included hypokalemia (n=4). There were generally mild post-infusion symptoms of fatigue, headache, and fever in seven patients, which necessitated a dosage reduction in one. One patient had had three pulses when treatment was halted prematurely because of recurrent pneumonia another withdrew after five pulses as she developed premature ovarian failure and two patients had premature menopause, in whom cyclophosphamide was not withdrawn. There were seven episodes of sepsis during therapy, which were mild and responded to antibiotics. There were two cases of localized herpes zoster infection and one of bronchial...

Some of the growth in antidepressant use may be related to the broad application of these agents for conditions other than major depression. For example, antidepressants have received FDA approvals for the treatment of panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). In addition, antidepressants are commonly used to treat pain disorders such as neuropathic pain and the pain associated with fibromyalgia. Some antidepressants are used for treating premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), mitigating the vasomotor symptoms of menopause, and treating stress urinary incontinence. Thus, antidepressants have a broad...
