title: [Corpus luteum function in the middle luteal phase following treatment with prostaglandins].
abstract: The corpus luteum of the mid-luteal phase was examined concerning of the signs of functional and morphological regression after treatment with Prostin F2alpha and 15(S)-15-methyl-PGF2alpha. By 8 patients who were operated upon out of various uterine indications steroid hormone levels were determined during the treatment with prostaglandins and corpus luteum was judged by electron-microscopy. Morphological changes in the temporary decrease of the progesteron concentration could be found.
