The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between gonadotropin (Gn) and prolactin (PRL) releasing activities on the hypothalamo-pituitary axis in the luteal phase of the normal menstrual cycle and in the early gestational period. The plasma levels of LH-beta subunit (LH-beta) following an intravenous bolus of 100 micrograms LHRH did not change significantly in early pregnancy. The plasma PRL levels, as well as the Gn levels, were significantly elevated (p less than 0.05) after the administration of 100 micrograms LHRH in the luteal phase, but did not rise in early pregnancy. The intravenous bolus of 10mg metoclopramide (MCP) had no effect on plasma LH-beta, LH, FSH, estradiol or progesterone in the luteal phase or early pregnancy. The plasma PRL levels remained significantly (p less than 0.001) elevated after the administration of MCP. However, there was no significant difference between PRL response to MCP in the early pregnant and luteal phase groups. In the luteal phase, we could show the correlation between Gn and PRL releasing mechanisms on hypothalamo-pituitary axis, which could not be found in early pregnancy.
