title: [Use of the clomiphene test for evaluation of the functional state of the hypothalamus-pituitary gland-ovarian system in ovarian hyperandrogenia].
abstract: The authors studied the content of gonadotropins and testosterone in the blood; functional condition of the hypothalamus-hypophysis-ovarian system was characterized in patients with ovarian hyperandrogenia by using the klomiphen test. Testosterone level in all the patients and prolactin level in 70% of the patients proved to exceed the normal values, wheras the LH level could be low, normal or high. With klomiphen test it was shown that both the gonadotropin and estrogen levels rose against the background of action of the preparation; as to testosterone level--it remained unchanged. In induced menstrual cycles estradiol peak preceded the gonadotropin peak. In patients with ovulation testosterone level diminished by the end of the observation period.
