The effect of clomiphene on hormone excretion in four normal males has been investigated.
In all subjects there was a marked rise in the urinary excretion of oestrone and oestradiol both during and after administration of the drug. The rise in oestrone excretion preceded and was more marked than the increase in oestriol output.
All subjects showed an increase in total 17-oxosteroid excretion during and after clomiphene administration. This was associated with a rise in the output of dehydroepiandrosterone in 2 of the 4 men studied.
The effect of clomiphene on steroid output occurred without any consistent change in the pattern of urinary gonadotrophin excretion.
Journal of Endocrinology is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.
The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
