Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Twelve patients with primary infertility due to a defective luteal phase associated with hyperprolactinemia and galactorrhea are reported. All were treated with 2-bromoergocryptine. During the first cycle of therapy, the serum prolactin level decreased in all cases, and galactorrhea disappeared during the second cycle of therapy. Seven women responded to 2-bromoergocryptine, as was reflected in their endometrial biopsies. The remaining five were given clomiphene citrate on the second and sixth days of the next 2-bromoergocryptine cycle. Three of these patients responded favorably to this combined therapy. Six pregnancies were reported during therapy. The results of follow-up after labor or abortion suggested that these cases represent a latent stage of the amenorrhea-galactorrhea syndrome. |
