Functional Interrogation of Adult Hypothalamic Neurogenesis with Focal Radiological Inhibition
Published on: November 14, 2013
Abstract:
Chronic intermittent intravenous administration of 13 micrograms LHRH every 88 minutes for 28 days, was successful in inducing ovulation in two patients with 3a type secondary hypothalamic amenorrhoea. A catheter phlebitis was the only side effect of the treatment and it could be easily prevented by more flexible, thin venous catheters. The minimum laboratory need for monitoring the treatment, and the absence of hyperstimulation of the ovaries suggested the superiority of this substance to hMG for ovulation induction in clomiphene negative patients.

Hormonal Regulation of the Menstrual Cycle
At puberty, GnRH begins a pulsatile release pattern, which triggers the anterior pituitary gland to secrete follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). The frequency and amplitude of GnRH pulses vary across the menstrual cycle, with faster pulses favoring LH release and slower pulses favoring FSH release.
Ovarian Cycle
Hormonal Control of the Ovarian Cycle
Before puberty, the hypothalamus releases GnRH in a low frequency, low amplitude pulsatile manner. This along with the immature hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis activity, results in low estrogen levels and the absence of a fully functional ovarian cycle. At puberty, GnRH secretion increases in both frequency and...
