title: [Serum levels of 17-beta-estradiol and progesterone in atherosclerotic subjects before and after HCG tests].
abstract: In this work the Authors describe the results of 17 plasmatic beta estradiol and plasmatic progesterone in a group of 10 arteriosclerotic patients before and after a test with HCG. The data proved that this drug doesn't modify statistically the plasmatic values of the mentioned steroids. These data cannot explain the mechanism of the therapeutic action of the HCG through a stimulus of the gonads.
