Figure 1 Diagram of concept for modified area under the curve for E2 (AUC-E2), slope of initial increase in E2 (Sl-E2), and serum E2 level on day of hCG administration (DhCG-E2). (A) Modified AUC-E2, reflection of the total E2-production. (B) Sl-E2, reflection of change in the initial E2 production. (C) DhCG-E2, reflection of the E2 level on hCG day.
