    Abstract:
    To evaluate the level of hormones before and after female renal transplantation, we measured pituitary gonadal hormones, estrovite, progestin, and prolactin in 25 renal transplant recipients (RTR) and 25 cases of chronic renal failure (CRF) using engyme immunoassay (EIA). The results indicated that serum RRL, FSH and LH level were reduced in RTR females compared with CRF, whereas E2 and P were normal. Serum PRL levels were elevated in CRF females whereas P levels were significantly lower compared with those of other groups. After clomiphene stimulation test, the plasma levels of LH FSH and E2 elevated, suggesting hypothalamic anovulation. Following successful renal transplantation, uremic hypothalamic disfunction was ameliorated and normal menstrual cycle, fertility was restored. During dialysis, treatment was given using suit therapy rather than trigger the ovulatory. Renal transplantation is the best treatment.
