A study to determine if estrogen (E) is needed to induce de novo progesterone (P) receptors on gamma/delta t cells as evidenced by determining the degree of rise of progesterone induced blocking factor (PIBF) following P exposure in males

A study to determine if estrogen (E) is needed to induce de novo progesterone (P) receptors on gamma/delta t cells as evidenced by determining the degree of rise of progesterone induced blocking factor (PIBF) following P exposure in males

Purpose: To determine if exposure to progesterone (P) alone without prior estrogen (E) exposure can cause a rise in serum progesterone induced blocking factor (PIBF). Materials and Methods: Male volunteers received IM progesterone 100 mg for seven days. Baseline and day seven levels of serum P and P...
