Regulation of human endometrial function: mechanisms relevant to uterine bleeding
Reproductive biology and endocrinology : RB&E ·doi:10.1186/1477-7827-4-s1-s5

This review focuses on the complex events that occur in the endometrium after progesterone is withdrawn (or blocked) and menstrual bleeding ensues. A detailed understanding of these local mechanisms will enhance our knowledge of disturbed e…

Clinical applications of LHRH analogues
Bailliere's clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1016/s0950-351x(87)80052-6

What is the current state of clinical application of inhibition of gonadal activity with LHRH agonists or antagonists? It seems unlikely in the short term that antagonists will be widely applied due to the short-acting nature of the present…
