Figure 1 Box and whisker plots showing median serum inhibin B (Inh B) levels and interquartile ranges at baseline and 24 hours after intravenous administration of 25 μg recombinant hCG (r-hCG) in normal and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) women. The decline in Inh B following r-hCG was significant in normal (P=.002) and PCOS (P=.05) women. The closed circle above the baseline PCOS box plot denotes an Inh B value outside of the 95th percentile.
