[Clomiphen-test in anovulatory sterility (author's transl)].
Twenty women with sterility due to an anovulatory cycle, were submitted to a load of hundred milligramms by day of clomiphene citrate during five days. The test was always performed between the 10th and the 14th day of the cycle. Before and after the clomiphene administration, FSH and LH in plasma and total estrogens and pregnanediol in 24 hours urine, were estimated. The results, are compared with those of ten normal women and the observed results may schematically been classified into three groups: A) Normal response. -- B) Week gonadotropic response. -- and C) High LH baseline. This results seem to indicate three main origines for the anovulatory cycle syndrome: hypothalamic, pituitary and ovarian.
