内容説明
The luteal phase is the time after ovulation, when the steroid hormones from the corpus luteum prepare the uterine endometrium to receive and nurture a blastocyst. This volume thus carries on from the point where the previous volume in the series - on follicular development and ovulation - ended. This three-way interaction between the corpus luteum, endometrium and blastocyst, is still incompletely understood but it is clear that its proper functioning is necessary for conception in the human. Abnormalities in the luteal phase can thus be a potentially treatable cause of infertility and the normal luteal phase can be a site for contraceptive action. In this volume, as in previous books in the series, the physiological and biochemical background is covered in the early chapters. Later chapters deal with abnormalities of the luteal phase and infertility; finally, current approaches to contraception in the luteal phase are described.
