DOSAGE DE L'HORMONE LUTEINISANTE DANS LE PLASMA HUMAIN. RESULTATS CHEZ LES SUJETS NORMAUX DES DEUX SEXES

Abstract

ABSTRACT An assay method for luteinizing hormone in human plasma is described. The results in healthy men and women are reported: in ten men, a significant level is constantly found, varying from 5 to 14 μg/2.5 ml of plasma. In three women with normal menses, a very low level is found during the preovulatory period, rising significantly at mid-cycle to return afterwards to lower levels, these remaining higher than preovulatory ones.
