Abstract

Defects of Hypothalamo-pituitary-ovarian axis are major causative factors in the etiology of primary infertility in women. Hormonal imbalances leading to disruption of H-P-O axis cause ovarian dysfunction which is the main etiological factor for primary infertility in women. The present study was conducted in the department of Biochemistry of GMC, Nagpur over a period of One and half years to assess the changes in the levels of serum Prolactin and 17-β Estradiol in women with primary infertility, to study the prevalence of hyperprolactinemia in primary infertility and to see if there is any changes in serum 17-β Estradiol levels in relation to hyperprolactinemic and normal prolactin primary infertile women.
