title: [Ovarian function in women after kidney transplantation].
abstract: The full recovery of reproductive age patients suffering from chronic renal failure due to a successful transplant should include the restoration of normal reproductive functions. In the study data are presented concerning the resumption of menstruation and the evaluation of the ovarian function of renal transplant recipients. After a successful renal transplant the ovarian function improves considerably but isn't always fully restored which can be attributed to the renal efficiency grade or result from the administered immunosuppressive treatment. Approximately 40% of the patients have ovulatory cycles with a normal length of the luteal phase. 40% have also ovulatory cycles but the luteal phase is shorter and the progesterone values are lower. The remaining patients have anovulatory cycles with low estrogen values and a high FSH and LH concentration.
