  • Title: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia and luteal dysfunction.
    Author: Villanueva AL, Rebar RW.
    Journal: Int J Gynaecol Obstet; 1985 Dec; 23(6):449-54. PubMed ID: 2868937.
    Abstract:
    A case of 21-hydroxylase deficiency diagnosed and first treated at the age of 3 years is presented. Although pubertal development was delayed, full reproductive function was attained, with menses occurring at 14-33-day intervals. Infertility evaluation at age 20 revealed elevated 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17Po) and androgen concentrations and reduced luteal phase progesterone levels consistent with inadequate luteal function. This was corrected with additional corticosteroid replacement. Normal pregnancy and delivery followed.
