title: Urinary excretion of insulin after estradiol treatment of postmenopausal women.
abstract: The influence of estradiol treatment on the urinary excretion of insulin was investigated in postmenopausal women. Thirteen women were treated with transdermal estradiol and 12 with oral estradiol for 4 weeks. With transdermal, but not with oral administration, a significant increase of urinary insulin excretion was registered.
