Pituitary-ovarian function was evaluated by measurement of daily serum levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), 17 beta-estradiol, and progesterone in women with a previous history of tubal ligation. Normally menstruating women served as controls. The duration of the proliferative and luteal phase was similar for both groups. The midluteal progesterone level averages did not differ between the two groups. Preovulatory LH and 17 beta-estradiol peaks were significantly lower in the tubal ligation group; average midluteal LH and 17 beta-estradiol levels were also lower. These results reveal that pituitary-ovarian function can be altered following surgical sterilization.
通过测量有输卵管结扎史女性的每日血清促黄体生成素（LH）、17β-雌二醇和孕酮水平来评估垂体-卵巢功能。正常月经周期的女性作为对照。两组的增殖期和黄体期持续时间相似。两组的黄体中期孕酮平均水平无差异。输卵管结扎组的排卵前LH和17β-雌二醇峰值显著较低；黄体中期LH和17β-雌二醇平均水平也较低。这些结果表明，手术绝育后垂体-卵巢功能可能会发生改变。
