PG - 147-52 AB - The authors intend to verify the reliability of some indices set up for the assessment of the fertile period of the menstrual cycle in women. The patterns of the following indices were studied and related to the day of ovulation, as detected by pelvic ultrasonography, in 42 cycles in healty women: the urinary surge of luteinising hormone tested by radioimmunoassay (R.I.A.), urinary surges of estrone-3-glucuronide (E1-3-G) and pregnanediol-3 alpha-glucuronide (Pd-3-alpha-G) tested by chemiluminescence immunoassay, cervical mucus at the vulva and basal body temperature (B.B.T.) recorded by self-observation. The patterns of these parameters have shown a various temporal relationship and reliability for detection of the fertile days of the menstrual cycle.
