  • Title: Infertility in women with apparently ovulatory cycles. II. The effects of clomiphene treatment on the profiles of gonadotrophin and sex steroid hormones in peripheral plasma.
    Author: Dodson KS, MacNaughton MC, Coutts JR.
    Journal: Br J Obstet Gynaecol; 1975 Aug; 82(8):625-33. PubMed ID: 1180951.
    Abstract:
    Six infertile patients had been studied previously (Dodson et al., 1975b) and were shown to produce inefficient corpora lutea which appeared to be predetermined by ovulation of "poorly grown" follicles. In a second cycle these infertile patients were treated with 50 mg of clomiphene per day for five days. The resulting plasma sex steroid and gonadotrophin profiles were compared with those found before treatment and with the profiles in normal patients (Dodson et al., 1975a). Treatment with clomiphene appeared to produce increased follicular growth and more active corpora lutea.
