摘要

Background and ObjectiveHighly purified human menotrophin and urofollitrophin preparations obtained from human urine via a novel patented purification method have been tested over a timeframe of 14 years in the studies presented in this article. The objective of the studies was to investigate the pharmacokinetics and the pharmacodynamics of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) after single subcutaneous and intramuscular doses and multiple subcutaneous doses of the tested preparations in healthy fertile pituitary-suppressed women.
