A study of peroxidase levels in human cervical mucus as an index of ovulation
Journal of Reproduction and Fertility
|November 1, 1977
Abstract:
Fourteen healthy women were screened for the following parameters throughout one complete menstrual cycle: levels of urinary oestrogens and pregnanediol; levels of plasma and urinary gonadotrophins; and pH, protein content and levels of peroxidase in the cervical mucus. It was found that concentrations of peroxidase in the cervical mucus were not a reliable index of ovulation.
