SYNTHETIC LUTEINIZING HORMONE-RELEASING FACTOR: A potent stimulator of gonadotropin release in man

Abstract
Synthetic LRF (single IV 150 μg dose) elicited a prompt increase in circulating LH in all 7 male subjects tested. The mean maximal rise to greater than 8-fold basal levels was reached within 20–30 min. A concomitant but quantitatively smaller FSH release was observed. Variability in response between individuals was not related to body surface area or age.
