This was a retrospective study of 292 consecutive patients treated with hMG. The requirement for treatment was that hCG be given when at least one follicle attained a 17-mm diameter with a serum estradiol level of at least 200 pg/mL per mature follicle. If the serum progesterone assay was greater than or equal to 1.8 ng/mL, then hCG would be given as long as there was at least one dominant follicle and a serum estradiol level greater than 200 pg/mL. The patients were divided into four groups for study based on the progesterone level at the time of hCG administration. There were no statistically significant differences in the ability to achieve ova release whether serum progesterone was very low or close to 2 ng/mL when hCG was given. The rise in the progesterone level prior to ovulation has been proposed to enhance egg release. However, the data presented herein do not support the necessity for a critical level of serum progesterone at the time of hCG injection in hMG-treated women.</p>","PeriodicalId":13990,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Fertility","volume":"37 2","pages":"103-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12521864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study assessed the effect of insulin on progesterone production by human granulosa lutein (G-L) cells in vitro. G-L cells were isolated from individual follicles at the time of laparoscopy for oocyte retrieval in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization/embryo transfer (IVF/ET). G-L cells were purified and plated for culture. Control wells contained no additions, while insulin was added to test wells. Although G-L cells obtained from follicles which contain an oocyte that subsequently fertilizes in vitro produce more progesterone at three and six days of culture than G-L cells from follicles that contain an oocyte that does not fertilize in vitro, insulin is unable to increase further the progesterone production of G-L cells from follicles containing either fertilized or nonfertilized oocytes at days 3 and 6 in culture. Further analysis based on the stimulation protocol (follicle stimulating hormone, n = 13; clomiphene citrate/hMG, n = 19; hMG, n = 10) also failed to yield a significant difference in basal or insulin-stimulated progesterone secretion after three or six days in culture. The lack of an effect of insulin on progesterone production by G-L cells in vitro may indicate that these cells are maximally stimulated following hyperstimulation and cannot increase progesterone production further, or may signify that insulin has no effect on the in vitro luteinization of human G-L cells obtained from hyperstimulated cycles.</p>","PeriodicalId":13990,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Fertility","volume":"37 2","pages":"93-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12523813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The difference in risk between men and premenopausal women has been explained by the following widely held hypothesis: androgens lower plasma concentrations of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), particularly the HDL-2 subfraction, and increase plasma concentrations of low-density lipoprotein (LDL). In contrast, estrogens have the opposite effect, raising plasma concentrations of HDL, particularly HDL-2, and lowering plasma concentrations of LDL. After the menopause, it is believed that the protective effect of estrogens in women is lost and the incidence of heart disease rises to equal that in men.
