Acute ovarian responses to a long-acting agonist of gonadotropin-releasing hormone in ovulatory women and women with polycystic ovarian disease.
    Fertility and sterility, 1985, Volume: 44, Issue:4

    A long-acting agonist of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH-a, 100 micrograms/day) was administered daily for 14 days in four patients with polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD) and eight ovulatory women (OW) to determine acute hormone responses. Initiation of GnRH-a treatment in OW on day 5 of their menstrual cycles (OW-day 5) stimulated a greater acute rise of serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) than that seen in OW beginning treatment on day 2 (OW-day 2) or PCOD patients. FSH levels fell to baseline values with repeated injections, whereas luteinizing hormone levels remained elevated in all patients. An acute rise and progressive fall of estradiol (E2) was found in all groups. The OW-day 5 group demonstrated a secondary increase, which by day 14 was clearly greater than that found in the other groups. This secondary increase of E2 in the OW-day 5 group was associated with lower abdominal pain, whereas OW-day 2 and PCOD patients were asymptomatic. For comparison, human menopausal gonadotropin (150 IU/day for 3 days) stimulated a significantly greater increase of E2 in OW-day 5 than in PCOD patients. These studies indicate that daily GnRH-a administration induced variable effects on ovarian function, which depended on when it was begun during the menstrual cycle and whether it was given to ovulatory or PCOD subjects. In addition, abdominal discomfort associated with GnRH-a use in regularly OW can be avoided by commencing agonist administration earlier in their menstrual cycles.
