Summary

The EVE- technology is intended for determination of intolerance or sensitivity to female sex hormones among women with hormone-related conditions and for further treatment by desensitization procedure inducing a tolerance to the hormones the women are sensitive to.

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and the ability of the EVE- Skin-Test Panel to detect sensitivity to female sex hormones in subjects with Unexplained Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (URPL) and in Control parous, healthy women.

The Skin Test Panel includes four female hormones and three control solutions.

Hormones from the Skin Test Panel are injected intradermally during the luteal phase of the subject's menstrual cycle. The skin reactions are examined by physician for erythema and wheal after 20 minutes and 48 hours and self-assessed by the patient daily for the following month.

Skin response monthly data is analyzed and compared between unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (UPRL) and healthy groups.

Following achievement of the significant differences between both groups the immune profile of the healthy and UPRL subjects will be investigated.

Conditions
