Abstract

Peritoneal fluid was collected at laparoscopy in women during the menstrual cycle and was assayed for protein and steroid hormone content. The total protein concentration in peritoneal fluid and the concentrations of the steroid hormone-binding proteins, transcortin and sex hormone-binding globulin, the polypeptide hormones, LH, FSH, and PRL, correlated with the plasma concentration but were lower; they were, respectively, 68%, 71%, 68%, 42%, and 34% of the plasma concentration. The concentrations of steroid hormones secreted by the ovary, i.e. 17 beta-estradiol, progesterone, androstenedione, and testosterone, were always equal or higher in peritoneal fluid than in plasma. In contrast, the concentrations of cortisol, a nonovarian steroid hormone, was 40% lower in peritoneal fluid than in plasma. No cyclic variations were observed in the peritoneal fluid concentrations of androstenedione and testosterone, two steroid hormones secreted by the stromal component of the ovary. On the contrary, the concentrations of 17 beta-estradiol and progesterone secreted by the follicular apparatus of the ovary increased sharply in peritoneal fluid after ovulation, reaching values of 44000 pg/ml and 3000 ng/ml, respectively. They declined progressively, whereas in plasma, peak concentrations were achieved only in the midluteal phase. In conclusion, the concentrations of 17 beta-estradiol and progesterone are much higher in peritoneal fluid than in plasma for at least 1 week after ovulation. We suggest that the secretion of the early, not yet vascularized, corpus luteum is directed preferentially toward the peritoneal cavity, creating a specific hormonal environment for the released oocyte and the oviduct.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
