Methods: Estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P) levels in serum were determined at different phases of menstrual cycle by radioimmunoassay. Results: In the group of PMS with adverse flow of liver-qi, the secretive peak value of E2 and P at the follicular phase significantly decreased, and the secretive peak value at the luteal phase did not come into being. Conclusions: Low E2 and P secretive peak at the follicular phase and absence of secretive peak at the luteal phase is one of the microcosmic mechanisms of PMS with adverse flow of liver-qi. One of the pathophysiologic mechanisms of specific sub-type PMS is probably the continuous low level of E2 and P.展开更多
