Summary

Hepcidin is the major hormone regulating Iron Metabolism. In a normal organism decrease iron stock causes a decrease in hepcidin synthesis thus promoting intestinal absorption of iron.

The interpretation of hepcidin dosage results requires to know the physiological variations of this hormone.

This study investigate whether there are significant variations in the values of serum hepcidin rates during the menstrual cycle in order to make recommendations on the practical dosage determination of hepcidin in premenopausal women.
