HETEROGENEITY OF PROLACTIN RESPONSES TO OESTRADIOL BENZOATE IN WOMEN WITH PROLACTINOMAS
Serum prolactin concentrations were measured for 72 h after intramuscular injection of 1 mg of oestradiol benzoate in six normoprolactinaemic women and nineteen with a prolactinoma (eleven with an obviously enlarged pituitary fossa and eight with a normal pituitary fossa). The group with an obvious...

Zusammenfassung: | Serum prolactin concentrations were measured for 72 h after intramuscular injection of 1 mg of oestradiol benzoate in six normoprolactinaemic women and nineteen with a prolactinoma (eleven with an obviously enlarged pituitary fossa and eight with a normal pituitary fossa). The group with an obvious tumour showed a rise in mean serum prolactin at 48 h to 122% of basal concentrations (p |
