Third, we defined the relevant days of the menstrual cycle as accurately as possible using ovulation predictor kits, in order to maximise the chances of detecting a cyclic shift in preference.
The present study demonstrates PCSK5A as the gonadotropin-regulated PCSK isoform in the ovary, and its possible contribution to ovulation by processing pro-TGFβ and matrix metalloproteinase family.
Study design: The data is part of a nationwide case-control, pilot study that was undertaken in order to evaluate the possible influence of ovulation induction drugs on the risk of endometrial cancer.
To explore the temporal expression in granulosa and theca cells of key members of the MMP and ADAMTS families across the periovulatory period in women to gain insight into their possible roles during ovulation and early luteinization.
Evolutionary psychologist Karl Grammer of the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Urban Ethology in Vienna says the result fits with his findings that it's possible to detect ovulation through the effect of raised levels of estrogens on the way women walk and dance.
A similar racial/ethnic pattern was observed after adjustment for possible predictors of ovulation status (see Statistical methods section; data not shown).
Note that we applied this procedure and use the term "peri-ovulatory" period for both implanted and non-implanted females, despite the possible absence of ovulation in the former.
On the other hand, Nezhat et al. [ 14] proposed that endometriomas may develop as a result of secondary involvement of functional ovarian cysts, while Vercellini et al. [ 15] hypothesized the development specifically from hemorrhagic corpora lutea, firstly suggesting a possible relation between ovulation and endometriomas.
To critically examine the possible association between ovulation-inducing drugs and ovarian cancer.
In veterinary medicine, exogenous progesterone is used as a potent drug for suppression of estrus and ovulation, making possible the synchronization of the estrus and ovulation cycles in livestock animals [13].
To rule out endometritis as a possible cause for delayed ovulation, bacterial elimination time was investigated.
