The hypothalamo-pituitary gonadal function was evaluated in eleven chronically alcoholic menopausal women by measurement of basal serum oestradiol, FSH, LH and prolactin, followed by LHRH-TRH test and administration of clomiphene citrate. All patients had hepatic damage, fibrosteatosis or cirrhosis. Two subgroups have been isolated according to urinary and serum estrogen levels: seven patients with urinary estrogen output less than 14 microgram per 24 h and plasma oestradiol less than 40 pg per ml were considered as post menopausal women: basal values of FSH and LH and their response to LHRH did not differ from that observed in normal menopausal women; clomiphene citrate induced a significant suppression of FSH and LH blood levels. Four women with urinary estrogen output greater than 14 microgram per 24 h and plasma oestradiol greater than 40 pg per ml were considered in menopausal transition. Their basal and post LHRH-FSH blood levels were lower than in the control group. These results suggest a normal hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis at least in the post menopausal alcoholic women.
