  • Title: Serum prolactin and oestradiol levels at different stages of puberty.
    Author: Thorner MO, Round J, Jones A, Fahmy D, Groom GV, Butcher S, Thompson K.
    Journal: Clin Endocrinol (Oxf); 1977 Dec; 7(6):463-8. PubMed ID: 598012.
    Abstract:
    Serum prolactin and oestradiol levels were measured in 183 children who were staged for pubertal development. Mean serum prolactin levels are higher in girls than in boys at stage 3 of pubertal development. In girls prolactin levels rise at stage 2, and are higher after menarche; in boys there is no change in prolactin levels. In this study serum oestradiol correlates with prolactin in the girls, but not in the boys.
