title: [Normal values of LH and FSH excretion in the urine of children and juveniles by the luteonosticon and FSH-nosticon test (author's transl)].
abstract: The normal values of the LH and FSH excretion in 12-h-overnight-urine-samples were measured by the commercial technique for the estimation of LH (Luteonosticon) and FSH (FSH-nosticon). These methods were used to determine the hormone excretion of these hormones in healthy individuals, 94 boys (0-18 years) and 48 girls (0-16 years). Only one urine sample was assayed for each subject. There was a highly significant correlation between the plasma LH and FSH concentrations and the urinary content of the same hormones: for FSH, r = 0.8 and for LH, r = 0.6. The plasma concentrations were measured radioimmunologically immediately before the period of urine collection. Five girls with Turner's syndrome aged 12 to 17 years showed LH values (5.0-14.5 IU/12 h) at the upper end of or slightly above the normal range and pathologically high values (22.2-43.5 IU/12 h) for FSH.
