Abstract
SUMMARY Plasma levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) in normally cyclic women during the menstrual cycle and in rats during the oestrous cycle were measured by bioassay. With the human subjects, it was possible to establish a mid-cycle peak of LH and correlate it with basal body temperature, while with the rats a peak of LH secretion was noted between 15.00 and 19.00 h on the day of pro-oestrus. The levels of LH in both groups of subjects were of the same order as those measured by other assay techniques.
