well guys u re great...

how can u explain the answer, coz i could not even undestand its explanation


  #5

well...I drew some parallels from the pathophys involved in PCODgrin...where secondary to increased LH we'd have similar symptomatology (eg Hirsuitism etc)... also one of the treatment options tried in PCOD is a birth control pill ...so there...

Do post the answer Sturge...its a pretty neat question! Keep em coming in....

well doc, what i thought and answered was well she is pregnancy , and some receptors expressed during pregnancy, has to be some hormaone which increased during pregnancy, so thought estrogen or progesterone, then thought progesterone excess can lead to hirusitsm, and marked it... it was wrong


will post explanation soon




  #7

well i thought,, INCREASE ectopic LH rceptortors-- INCREASE testosterone--aromatase convertase into estrogen--- hirusitusim, etc symatptoms
