Abstract
The effects of either single injection or continuous infusion of synthetic Gn-RHon plasma hCG levels were studied in 5 pregnant women (14-38 week gestation). No definite increase of hCG level was seen in all the cases studied. In view of large dosages of Gn-RH used in this study in comparison with its minimum effective dose for the pituitary gonadotropin release, Gn-RH seems unlikely to play a role in hCG secretion during human pregnancy.
