This study found that replenishment of iron stores after phlebotomy-induced remission in porphyria cutanea tarda led to biochemical relapse, suggesting that reducing iron stores may be crucial for maintaining remission.

This study reported that both phlebotomy and oral contraceptive pills with cyproterone acetate effectively improved insulin resistance and androgenic profiles in women with PCOS, but OCs had more impact on regularizing menstrual cycles.

This review explores the similarities between polycystic ovary syndrome and hemochromatosis in terms of iron overload and suggests that addressing gut dysbiosis might help manage iron levels in these conditions.

This case report describes a 66-year-old woman diagnosed with porphyria cutanea tarda, characterized by painless vesicular lesions on sun-exposed areas and associated with hemochromatosis, and managed effectively with phlebotomy.

This study observed that five out of fourteen individuals aged 13-16 years, who were homozygous for the p.C282Y mutation related to hemochromatosis, had increased liver and phlebotomy-mobilized iron levels.
