The objective of the present study was to identify peculiar features of nasal obstruction in the pregnant women and to evaluate parameters of the quality of life in the patients suffering from rhinitis in comparison with those having adequate nasal breathing. A total of 120 pregnant women were available for the examination The estimated variables included the quality of life, ciliary activity, results of rheoencehalography, and estradiol levels. The results of the study indicate that the quality of life in the pregnant women presenting with rhinitis and nasal obstruction depends on the estradiol level and changes in the rheoencephalograms. The severity of clinical symptoms of nasal obstruction increased in parallel to variations in the parameters of the mucociliary transport.
