Endomertiosis and ovarian function

Objective: To study the relationship between endocrine change of Endometriosis(Em) and ovarian function Methods: By RIA,68 cases with Em underwent serum hormone determination and BBT measurement;30 underwent endometrial biopsy and B ultrasonic examination;8 underwent hormone determination of ascites and follicular hydrops.Results: PRL of 24 cases increased among 68,44 were normal.37 were normal with FSH,16 were lower,15 were higher.38 were normal with LH,16 were lower,14 were higher.49 were normal with E2,16 were lower,3 were higher,36 were normal with P,32 were lower.30 cases underwent endometrial biopsy,8 with glandular dysecretosis,15 with proliferative stage intima.Ascites and follicular hydrops are taken from 8 cases in order to determine FSH,LH,E2.In progesational stage,E2 and P value of follicular hydrops are 20-25 times higher than those of ascites.What's more,E2 and P of ascites are lower hthan serum value.Conclusion: The endocrine change of patients with Em can affect ovarian function.It can lead to ovulation disturbance and anovular.To make the matter worse,it can cause abnormal menstruation or acyesis
