2. Figure 1
Serum LH, FSH, E2, and P concentrations (mean ± SEM) during the exogenous administration of E2 via skin patches from cycle days 5–8 in eight normally cycling women. Hormonal values are normalized (A) to the onset of estrogen administration and (B) to the onset of the induced LH surge. In cycle 1 (open circles), only E2 was given to the women, and in cycle 2 (solid circles) the women were given E2 plus the GnRH antagonist ganirelix from cycle day 5 to 9 at the daily dose of 0.25 mg SC.
