title: [Gonadotropins and sex steroid hormones in women with exacerbated duodenal peptic ulcer].
abstract: Exacerbation of duodenal ulcer in women of the birth-giving period is characterized by an increase of blood prolactin, progesterone and estradiol that possess a protective action. Simultaneously the concentration of testosterone is elevated which reduces the resistance of the gastroduodenal mucosa. In menopausal women exacerbation of ulcer disease is accompanied by an increase of the FSH level, prolactin, luteinizing hormone and testosterone, significant reduction of estradiol.
