The secretory dynamics of plasma luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) and serum luteinizing hormone (LH) were studied in three hypogonadal women before and after chronic administration of mestranol. Blood samples were obtained through an indwelling iv line every 15 min over 3 hours, and plasma levels of LHRH and LH were measured by radioimmunoassay. LHRH and LH pulses were defined as rising from nadir to peak that exceed 2 times the intraassay coefficient of variation. All patients showed pulsatile LHRH and LH release before mestranol administration. The mean LH levels (89 +/- 20 mIU/ml) and pulse amplitude (33 +/- 14 mIU/ml) were significantly reduced after mestranol administration. On the other hand, the mean LHRH levels (1.87 +/- 0.49 pg/ml) and pulse amplitude (0.92 +/- 0.41 pg/ml) did not change significantly after mestranol administration. Pulse frequency (2 approximately 3 times/3 hrs) of LHRH and LH did not change after mestranol administration. These data show that the chronic administration of estrogen to such patients cause a decrease in mean LH levels and amplitude of LH pulse without a decrease of pulsatile LHRH secretions. These results suggest that the chronic negative feedback action of estrogen on episodic LH release in women may be at the level of the pituitary gland and estrogen may change the pituitary sensitivity to LHRH.
