Abstract
A group of 15 women diagnosed as having luteal phase inadequacy (LPI) and a history of 1-2 yr of infertility were treated with bromocriptine continuously for 4 mo. Plasma levels of prolactin, progesterone, 17.alpha.-hydroxyprogesterone and estradiol were measured by radioimmunoassay in a control month and each treatment months. There was no significant improvement in the levels of the steroids over the 4 mo. period, although the prolactin levels were depressed, and 2 subjects became pregnant during the study.
