The exact prediction of ovulation is becoming more important in the management of infertile women. Graafian follicle diameter, measured by ultrasound and plasma follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, and estradiol levels were compared retrospectively as predictors of ovulation in 14 normal women in whom ovulation was dated by conventional ultrasound techniques. Follicle diameter was found to be a better predictor of the anticipated time of ovulation than endocrine estimations for short-term as well as long-term predictions in normal women. The relationship between follicle diameter and plasma estradiol for each day before ovulation was linear but contained a great amount of scatter, suggesting that the assessment of normality of follicular development in infertile women may not be possible with the use of these parameters.
准确预测排卵在不孕女性的治疗中变得越来越重要。回顾性比较了通过超声测量的格拉夫卵泡直径以及血浆卵泡刺激素、黄体生成素和雌二醇水平，以此作为14名正常女性排卵的预测指标，这些女性的排卵时间通过传统超声技术确定。结果发现，在正常女性的短期和长期预测中，卵泡直径比内分泌评估更能准确预测预期排卵时间。排卵前每天卵泡直径与血浆雌二醇之间的关系呈线性，但存在大量离散度，这表明使用这些参数可能无法评估不孕女性卵泡发育的正常性。
