  Ovarian and adrenal contributions to peripheral steroid levels in postmenopausal women.

  Maroulis GB, Abraham GE.

  Obstet Gynecol. 1976 Aug;48(2):150-4.

  Serum levels of cortisol (F), pregnenolone (delta5-P), 17-hydroxypregnenolone (17-delta5-P), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S), progesterone (P), 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-P), androstenedione (A), testosterone (T), dihydrotestosterone (DHT), androst-5-ene-3beta, 17beta-diol (delta5-diol), estrone (E1), and estradiol-17beta (E2) were measured in 10 postmenopausal and 5 premenopausal women before (control) and after 7 days of Dexamethasone (post-dex). Control and post-dex levels of delta5-P, P, DHT, T, and F were not different (P greater than 0.05) in premenopausal versus postmenopausal women, while the control levels of 17-P, DHEA, DHEA-S, A, delta5-diol, and E2 were lower in the postmenopausal women (P less than 0.05). Assuming post-dex levels equal ovarian contribution, the ovarian contribution of 17-delta5-P, 17-P, DHEA, delta5-diol, A, E1, and E2 and the adrenal contribution (control-post-dex) to DHEA, DHEA-S, 17-P, A, and delta5-diol was significantly lower (P less than 0.05) in postmenopausal subjects.
