Effect of LH/FSH-RH on circulating serum gonadotropins in the bonnet monkey
Abstract
PIP: The effect of luteinizing hormone/follicle stimulating hormone-releasing hormone (LH/FSH-RH) on circulating serum gonadotropins was studied in the bonnet monkey. The RH, when administered either iv or im failed to elicit any marked increase in serum LH in 2 out of 3 monkeys. There was an increase in serum FSH levels in intact animals. In ovariectomized monkeys, a considerable increase in FSH levels was seen when the monkeys were pretreated with estrogen-progesterone combination but the treatment had no effect on the LH release by the RH.
