Abstract: FIELD: medicine. 
     SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely obstetrics and gynaecology, and may be used for treating benign hyperplastic processes of the female reproductive system. That is ensured by the introduction of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist for 6 months once monthly in a combination with the oral administration of the preparation for hormonal replacement therapy. It is preceded by specifying the initial metabolic, vegetative and gynaecologic status of the patient which along with an age group provides a basis to assess an adequacy of initiating hormonal add-back therapy. If the patient belongs to the age group of under 40 years of age, and in case of observing additional burdening of the metabolic and vegetative status, the introduction of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist with no hormonal add-back therapy prescribed. For the purpose of preventing potential negative symptoms, it is combined with underlying prescription of a complex of phytoestrogens and vitamins with required intake of calcium and vitamin D 3 . Each injection of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist, starting with the second one, is followed by clinical assessment of hypestrogenism symptoms and blood chemistry analysis, and if observing hypestrogenism symptoms, additional hormonal add-back therapy is prescribed. If the patient appears to belong to the age of 40 years old and more, and in case of observing the presence of burdened metabolic and vegetative status regardless of the age group, 2 years after the first injection of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist, hormonal add-back therapy is started. When selecting the preparation included in the hormonal add-back therapy regimen: there are differentiated: if the patient belongs to a younger group under 35 years of age, a therapeutic add-back preparation is presented by a combine oral contraceptive containing ethinyl estradiol 30 mg and dienogest 2 mg in each tablet. The oral contraceptive is prescribed 1 tablet a day in the continuous regimen which is recommended to be used after termination of the therapeutic course with gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist if pregnancy prevention is required. If the patient belongs to the age group of 35 years and older, a therapeutic hormonal add-back preparation is presented by a preparation for hormonal replacement therapy containing micronised 17-p estradiol 1 mg and dydrogesterone 5 mg or a preparation containing drospirenone 2 mg instead of dydrogesterone in each tablet 1 tablet a day in the continuous regimen. An initial or underlying tendency to increase of blood pressure, a combined preparation for hormonal replacement therapy containing drospirenone is prescribed. The therapeutic course is followed by recommended administration of the preparation of hormonal replacement therapy if the patient belongs to the age group of 50 years and older in the continuous regimen. 
     EFFECT: method enables providing an evident therapeutic effect that is manifested in stable elimination of estrogenic deficiency symptoms accompanying gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist therapy with preserved clinical effectiveness and improved patient's quality of life.
