Comparisons of estradiol, LH and FSH patterns in pregnant and nonpregnant beagle bitches

To characterize plasma estradiol, LH and FSH patterns of secretion during the bitch estrous cycle, blood samples were obtained daily from 15 days before until 135 days after the LH surge in 10 pregnant and 10 nonpregnant beagle bitches. After an initial increase between days 15 and 10 and an expecte...

description To characterize plasma estradiol, LH and FSH patterns of secretion during the bitch estrous cycle, blood samples were obtained daily from 15 days before until 135 days after the LH surge in 10 pregnant and 10 nonpregnant beagle bitches. After an initial increase between days 15 and 10 and an expected proestrous peak, estradiol concentrations increased again from days 9–12 (corresponding to cytological metestrus) from basal values observed around day 9 after the LH surge, and remained significantly elevated throughout the luteal phase both in pregnant and nonpregnant animals. Concomitantly with the end of the luteal phase, plasma concentrations of estradiol returned to basal values in both groups. During the mid- to late-luteal phase, mean basal LH secretion was significantly elevated throughout in the pregnant relative to the nonpregnant animals. However, in nonpregnant animals, pulsatility was increased and peaks of higher amplitude were observed. The plasma FSH profiles, determined by a specific homologous RIA, differed significantly between pregnant and nonpregnant bitches during the last two-thirds of the luteal phase with a mean FSH level more elevated during pregnancy. The FSH level then decreased around parturition and low concentrations during lactation period were observed. The FSH concentrations remained steady in nonpregnant luteal phases from early luteal phase through mid-anestrus. The differences in pregnant and nonpregnant LH and FSH concentrations suggest pregnancy differences in regulation of the corpus luteum. Finally, the elevated estradiol concentrations observed during the luteal phase of both pregnant and nonpregnant animals suggest that an ovarian production of estrogens may be involved in overall corpus luteum regulation in dogs as in other species.
