Summary

The research aims to characterize changes in ovarian and pituitary hormones associated with the development of ovarian follicular waves during the human menstrual cycle.

Conditions

  • Reproductive Issues

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Transvaginal ultrasound scans

Transvaginal ultrasound scans to map ovarian follicle growth and ovulation, finger-prick blood sampling for dried blood spot (DBS) hormonal assays and urine sampling for hormone metabolites, every consecutive day for an interovulatory interval. Weekly venipuncture samples will be taken for standard ELISA hormonal assays. The hormones of interest are FSH, LH, estradiol, progesterone, AMH, inhibins A and B, GDF-9 and BMP-15.
