(2) A case of recurrent bilateral catamenial pneumothorax is presented with pathologic, cytologic, and radiologic documentation.

(4) This is a report of a woman with catamenial hemoptysis who responded successfully to danazol therapy; however, hemoptysis resumed after cessation of therapy.
(5) In the setting of catamenial epilepsy or reproductive endocrine disorders, progestins, such as natural progesterone and parenteral medroxyprogesterone, or antiestrogenic agents, such as clomiphene, constitute rational and effective adjuncts to therapy.
(6) Hormonal therapy may be appropriate adjunctive anticonvulsant treatment, particularly for women with seizures that are catamenial or associated with a menstrual or reproductive endocrine disorder.
(7) We report a case of recurring catamenial pneumothorax with concurrent pelvic endometriosis.
(8) Since the initial case report in 1958, 69 cases of catamenial pneumothorax have appeared in English-language literature.
(9) Each episode was apparently related to the onset of the menstruation suggesting catamenial pneumothorax.
