In a group of three patients affected by severe hypothalamic amenorrhea, gonadotropins behaviour before and during pulsatile GNRH therapy, was investigated with more accuracy for seven cycles. The treatment was administered intravenously with a dosage of 5 ug/90 min. The number of cycles for pregnancy was of 1.75 with a pregnancy rate of 57.1%. The gonadotropins response to an acute test with 100 ug of GNRH performed in the three patients at the 7th day of their first treatment cycle was compared with response to the same test done before the beginning of the pulsatile therapy.

Abstract
In a group of three patients affected by severe hypothalamic amenorrhea, gonadotropins behaviour before and during pulsatile GNRH therapy, was investigated with more accuracy for seven cycles. The treatment was administered intravenously with a dosage of 5 ug/90 min. The number of cycles for pregnancy was of 1.75 with a pregnancy rate of 57.1%. The gonadotropins response to an acute test with 100 ug of GNRH performed in the three patients at the 7th day of their first treatment cycle was compared with response to the same test done before the beginning of the pulsatile therapy. Some considerations about the results were suggested.File in questo prodotto:
