Follicle Stimulating Hormone Receptor (FSHR) Polymorphisms and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019 Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the commonest endocrine abnormality in women of reproductive age typically presenting with chronic oligo- or anovulation, clinical, or biochemical hyperandrogenism and polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM).

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone-Secreting Pituitary Adenomas [PDF]
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1985 This retrospective study concerns 40 patients with an apparently nonsecretory pituitary adenoma who were operated on during an 11-yr period from 1971 to 1981. Among them, 6 men had elevated serum FSH levels. LH levels were normal in 5 and slightly elevated in 1. Testosterone levels were low in 2 patients and within normal limits in 2 others.

Follicular and endocrine dose responses according to anti-Müllerian hormone levels in IVF patients treated with a novel human recombinant FSH (FE 999049) [PDF]
, 2015 Objective: To study the association between serum anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) levels and follicular development and endocrine responses induced by increasing doses (5.2-12.1 mu g/day) of a novel recombinant human FSH (rhFSH, FE 999049) in patients ...

Bioactive follicle-stimulating hormone [PDF]
Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1991 Abstract Specific and sensitive in vitro bioassays suitable for measurement of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in small quantities of serum and urine have recently been validated. Comparisons of bioassay (B-FSH) potencies with immunoassay (I-FSH) estimates and chromatofocusing patterns have facilitated new discoveries regarding the regulation of ...

The 'incidentaloma' of the pituitary gland. Is neurosurgery required? [PDF]
, 1990 We describe a series of 18 patients with an intrasellar mass incidentally discovered by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. The average size of the mass was 13 mm, with a range from 5 to 25 mm.
