Journal ArticleDOI

Fertility and ageing.

TL;DR: The late 20th century trend to delay birth of the first child until the age at which female fecundity or reproductive capacity is lower has increased the incidence of age-related infertility and stimulated interest in the possible factors in the female and the male that may contribute to the decline in fecundities with age.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Booroola (FecB) phenotype is associated with a mutation in the bone morphogenetic receptor type 1 B (BMPR1B) gene.

TL;DR: A mutation in the subdomain 3 of the kinase domain could result in an alteration in the expression and/or phosphorylation of SMADs, resulting in the phenotype characteristic of the Booroola animals which is the 'precocious' development of a large number of small antral follicles resulting in increased ovulation rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prostaglandin synthesis in the endometrium of women with ovular dysfunctional uterine bleeding

TL;DR: Excessive blood loss may be associated with a shift in the endometrial conversion of prostaglandin endoperoxide from PGF2α to PGE2, which isomersally linked to unexplained menorrhagia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential impact of hormonal male contraception: cross-cultural implications for development of novel preparations

TL;DR: A multi-centre study to assess men's attitudes to proposed novel hormonal methods of contraception suggests that the emerging emphasis that men should have greater involvement in family planning will be substantiated when appropriate contraceptive methods become available.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nutrition and reproduction in women

TL;DR: Management of anovulation with obesity involves diet and exercise as well as standard approaches to ovulation induction, and the fear of weight gain affects uptake and continuation of hormonal contraceptives, although existing trials indicate that any such effects are small.
