Journal ArticleDOI
Hormonal Dynamics at Midcycle: A Reevaluation*
TL;DR: The data provide a relatively precise picture of the hormonal changes preceding the onset of the gonadotropin surge and the temporal relationship between the multiphasic P4 rise and pituitary-ovarian function.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of endogenous opiates on lh secretion during the menstrual cycle
M. E. Quigley,S. S. C. Yen +1 more
TL;DR: Observations suggest that endogenous opiates are involved in the regulation of LH secretion during the high estrogen and estrogen-progesterone phases of the menstrual cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute Suppression of Circulating Testosterone Levels by Cortisol in Men
TL;DR: These findings suggest that hypercortisolism of endogenous or exogenous sources suppresses T secretion by a direct action on the testis, and this adrenal-testicular axis may have biological implications on the reproductive adaptation to stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional Studies of Aromatase Activity in Human Granulosa Cells from Normal and Polycystic Ovaries
TL;DR: Normal granulosa cells from the aromatase-deficient 4- to 6-mm follicles of both normal and polycystic ovaries produced negligible amounts of E when incubated 5 h with graded doses of Δ4, suggesting that the arom atase enzyme had not been induced in follicle of this size.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endogenous opiates modulate pulsatile luteinizing hormone release in humans.
TL;DR: The data strongly suggest that endogenous opiates, through an inhibition of hypothalamic LRF, participate in the endocrine events leading to the low frequency of episodic LH secretion characteristic of the luteal phase of the human menstrual cycle.
