    Author: Abdalla MI, Ibrahim II, Osman MI, Bayad MA, Hafez ES.
    Journal: Contracept Deliv Syst; 1983 Jul; 4(3):163-7. PubMed ID: 12265358.
    Abstract:
    Serum estradiol and progesterone were determined by radioimmunoassay procedures at premenstrual days M-7 and M-6 in 30 nonlactating women: 1) control non-IUD users (n=10), 2) Lippes loop users (n=10), and 3) copper T 200 users (n=10). Results indicated ovulatory and normal corpus luteum pattern in the 3 groups. Comparable evaluation was performed at premenstrual days M-4 and M-2 in 30 lactating women: 1) control lactating (n=10), 2) copper T 200 users (n=10), and 3) Progestasert TM system users (n=10). Results indicated anovulatory figures in progesterone-releasing device users, and while about 40% of lactating controls and copper T 200 users showed evidence of ovulation, the rest were nonovulatory.
