The sequence analysis showed two substitutional mutations of β-subunit Trp (TGG) to Arg (CGG) and Ile (ATC) to Thr (ACC). The variant luteinizing hormone might have had some relation to the infertility and the endometrial polyp.\nSimilar content being viewed by others\nAuthor information\nAuthors and Affiliations\nAdditional information\nReceived: 28 August 2000 / Accepted: 17 October 2000\nRights and permissions\nAbout this article\nCite this article\nOkuno, A., Komori, S., Sakata, K. et al.
