| 1 | [Responses of growth hormone and prolactin to L-Dopa in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome]. | Levodopa | prolactin | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | METHODS: Responses of GH and PRL to L-Dopa (L-DA) (500 mg) were observed in two PCOS groups (LH/FSH > or = 3, Group I, n = 15, LH/FSH < 3, Group II, n = 15) and the control (n = 20). | Levodopa | prolactin | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | METHODS: Responses of GH and PRL to L-Dopa (L-DA) (500 mg) were observed in two PCOS groups (LH/FSH > or = 3, Group I, n = 15, LH/FSH < 3, Group II, n = 15) and the control (n = 20). | Levodopa | prolactin | Homo sapiens |
| 4 | RESULTS: Significantly lower GH (P < 0.01) and higher PRL levels (P < 0.05 in group I) in the basal state, and lower responses of GH and PRL to L-DA were found in two PCOS groups as compared with the control. | Levodopa | prolactin | Homo sapiens |
| 5 | CONCLUSION: The altered basal levels and blunted L-DA evoked responses of GH and PRL suggest a relative decrease of the dopaminergic activity in PCOS patients. | Levodopa | prolactin | Homo sapiens |
