Abstract:
The authors examined 100 infertile women of reproductive age with various degrees of hyperandrogenism. As a result of multiple correlation analysis it was found that the state of hirsutism and the ratio of body weight to height are the most sensitive indicators of the testosterone action in reproductive age (r = + 0.56, p less than 0.1, r = + 0.60, p less than 0.05). There was no correlation between LH, FSH, PRLI, E2 T and K values. The assembled results suggest the variable character of factors which influence clinical manifestations of the disease and explain the heterogeneity of symptoms.

01:40Hormonal Regulation
Hormones regulate a significant portion of digestion through activation of the neuroendocrine system. The neuroendocrine system of digestion contains many different hormones all with multiple functions that are both, directly and indirectly, involved in digestion.
02:07Oogenesis
In human women, oogenesis produces one mature egg cell or ovum for every precursor cell that enters meiosis. This process differs in two unique ways from the equivalent procedure of spermatogenesis in males. First, meiotic divisions during oogenesis are asymmetric, meaning that a large oocyte (containing most of the cytoplasm) and minor polar body are produced as a result of meiosis I, and again following meiosis II. Since only oocytes will go on to form embryos if fertilized, this unequal...
