Progress in the investigation and treatment of anovulation
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1969THERE I s no branch of human therapeutics that does not have its own peculiar problems. Induction of ovulation is no exception. The ideal of treatment is full restoration of function without side effects. In many endocrine deficiencies, such as hypothyroidism or Addison’s disease, a reasonable facsimile of normality may be maintained by replacement ...

Bayesian analysis of risk factors for anovulation
Statistics in Medicine, 2004AbstractTwo algorithms for assessing ovulatory status using daily urinary levels of oestrogen and progesterone metabolites have been applied to non‐clinic‐based, free‐living populations of women. These relatively new methods for assessing ovarian function have been used to assess the potential adverse effects of occupational and environmental exposures,

Effect of sigetin on anovulation in rats [PDF]
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1977 The effect of sigetin on anovulation was investigated in experiments on sexually mature female rats. Anovulation was induced experimentally by stress (keeping the rats under overcrowded conditions) and by unilateral ovariectomy (hemicastration). Treatment with sigetin in a dose of 10 mg/kg for 4–5 days restored normal ovulation.

Diagnosis and Causes of Anovulation
2014The history and examination alone will often point toward the diagnosis and dictate the order in which examinations should be performed. Using this approach and good common sense, laboratory examinations, expense and time can be limited to a minimum. There are four major categories of causes of anovulation: hypothalamic-pituitary failure, hypothalamic ...

Etiology of Anovulation in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Steroids, 1998Various endocrine factors may contribute to the phenomenon of arrested follicular development, which is the hallmark of anovulatory infertility in polycystic ovary syndrome. Hypersecretion of luteinizing hormone and/or insulin, together with high intrafollicular concentrations of androgens, can interact to produce supraphysiological levels of cyclic ...
