Popis: The authors studied the effect of working conditions and harmful organic solvents on the frequency of gynaecological diseases and menstrual disorders in 138 women. The experimental group consisted of 88 women exposed to evaporation and increased concentrations of organic solvents, and the control group was composed of 50 employees without any harmful effect of these noxa. It was found that adnexitis and dysmenorrhea were more frequent in the experimental group than in the control group, and that the statistical difference was significant (p0.01). However, the frequency of gynaecological diseases, such as haemorrhages and menstrual disorders, were almost the same in both groups, without a statistically significant difference (p0.05).
