title: [Hormonal changes in buserelin therapy].
abstract: Buserelin has been applied intranasal in 31 women of the reproductive age for endometriosis that had been diagnosed by laparoscopic and bioptic means. The treatment period was 6 month and hormonal changes were evaluated after 2, 4, 8, 12, 17, 20, and 24 weeks. After 2 weeks we observed a decrease of FSH to the lower normogonadotropic range, and of progesteron to less than 0.5 ng/ml. After 4 weeks LH decreased to the lower normogonadotropic range and E2 was below 55 pg/ml. Prolactin concentrations varied between 6 and 8 ng/ml.
