Abstract:
In a study of 41 healthy premenopausal women, plasma high-density lipoprotein-2a (HDL2a) levels (ie, HDL of diameter 8.8 to 9.7 nm) were significantly higher during the luteal phase than during the follicular phase of the cycle. There was no significant variation in HDL2b or any of the HDL3 subclasses.
