Abstract

The concentration of estrone, estradiol, and estriol in ß-glucuronidase and sulfatase treated plasma and of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in serum from blood collected daily throughout a substantial portion of a normal menstrual cycle have been determined. The patterns found are compatible with the cyclical changes expected on the basis of earlier studies of LH and FSH in serum, urinary estrogens, and unconjugated estrogens in plasma, with the midcycle peak of estradiol preceding those of the gonadotropins.
